Characteristics of Cosmetic-Grade Water Based Micron Sized Titanium Dioxide

Our water-based micron-sized titanium dioxide stands out due to its unique combination of properties:

High whiteness and opacity: It provides a bright, clean appearance with strong covering power, making it ideal for skin tone correction and coverage enhancement.
Micron-scale particle size: Large enough to avoid dermal penetration, ensuring safety, yet small enough to offer efficient light scattering and a natural finish.
Hydrophilic surface treatment: It offers excellent dispersion and stability in water-based systems, ensuring uniform color distribution and easy formulation.
UV protection: Primarily in the rutile crystalline form, it effectively reflects and scatters UVA and UVB rays (200-400 nm), contributing to broad-spectrum sun protection.
Non-toxic and non-irritating: Dermatologically tested; does not cause adverse skin reactions upon contact.

Applications Across Cosmetic Categories

The versatile nature of our cosmetic-grade water-based micron-sized titanium dioxide makes it an ideal ingredient for a broad spectrum of cosmetic applications:

Sun Protection Products: It is a core component in sunscreens, offering robust broad-spectrum UV protection by effectively reflecting and scattering harmful rays. Its efficacy and skin compatibility make it a preferred choice for physical sunblocks.
Foundations and Concealers: Leveraging its high hiding power and excellent dispersibility, it provides natural-looking coverage and helps achieve an even skin tone in foundations, concealers, and BB/CC creams. It improves the product's transparency and natural feel, contributing to a more natural complexion.
White Pigment in Decorative Cosmetics: As a premier white pigment, it's widely used in lipsticks, eyeshadows, and other decorative cosmetics to enhance color vibrancy, brightness, and overall aesthetic appeal.
Other Cosmetic Formulations: Beyond these primary applications, it also finds use in various other products, including hair care formulations and moisturizing creams, where it contributes to UV protection and delivers brightening effects.
