Description
Titanium dioxide in aqua, also known as titanium dioxide water dispersion or titanium dioxide aqueous suspension, consists of titanium dioxide nanoparticles dispersed in water. This formulation is commonly used in cosmetics and skincare products for its UV-blocking properties. Titanium dioxide nanoparticles have a high refractive index, allowing them to scatter and reflect UV radiation away from the skin, providing broad-spectrum protection against both UVA and UVB rays.
Use
In cosmetics and skincare products, titanium dioxide in aqua is primarily utilized as a UV filter to prevent sunburn, photoaging, and skin damage caused by UV radiation. It is commonly incorporated into sunscreens, BB creams, tinted moisturizers, and other products requiring SPF coverage. Titanium dioxide in aqua is suitable for all skin types, including sensitive skin, and is often preferred for its non-irritating and non-comedogenic properties.
Applications
Titanium dioxide in aqua is added to formulations to provide UV protection and enhance the sun protection factor (SPF) of products. It is applied topically to the skin before sun exposure and should be reapplied regularly, especially after swimming or sweating, to maintain effective sun protection. Additionally, titanium dioxide in aqua can be found in various cosmetic products to provide SPF coverage and protect the skin from UV radiation.
