The Role of Titanium Dioxide in Organic Cosmetic Products

The presence of titanium dioxide in cosmetics is a topic of concern for many consumers who care about their health and the environment. This ingredient, often referred to by its chemical name TiO2, is commonly used for its coloring and UV protective properties. Nevertheless, it is crucial to understand the risks associated with its use, as well as the responsible practices implemented by brands such as Druide Bio, which use this ingredient while committing to ensuring the safety and ethics of their products.

What is Titanium Dioxide?

Titanium dioxide is a natural mineral used in a variety of cosmetic products, from sunscreens to foundations. It not only provides whitening and opacity but also offers protection against the harmful effects of ultraviolet rays.

The controversies surrounding Titanium Dioxide

Despite its benefits, the use of titanium dioxide is controversial, particularly concerning nanoparticles, which are suspected of having harmful effects on human health and the environment. Studies have highlighted potential risks associated with inhaling these fine particles, and questions remain about their impact as endocrine disruptors.

• Carcinogenicity: Research has indicated that TiO2 nanoparticles could be classified as possibly carcinogenic when inhaled.
• Endocrine Disruption: Studies are less advanced, but there is concern about the potential endocrine-disrupting effects of TiO2, particularly in nanoparticle form.
• Environmental Impact: The environmental implications of the production and use of TiO2 must also be considered.
