The cosmetic industry demands ingredients that are not only effective but also safe and functional. Titanium Dioxide (TiO2) has earned a significant place in cosmetic formulations, primarily serving as a physical UV filter in sunscreens and as a whitening agent in various makeup and skincare products. As a leading supplier of high-purity TiO2 from China, we are committed to providing cosmetic manufacturers with premium-grade materials that meet stringent safety and performance standards.

Titanium Dioxide as a UV Filter

In sunscreens and other sun protection products, TiO2 acts as a physical barrier on the skin, reflecting and scattering harmful ultraviolet (UV) radiation. It is particularly effective against both UVA and UVB rays, offering broad-spectrum protection. The efficacy of TiO2 as a UV filter is closely related to its particle size. Nanometer-sized TiO2 particles are widely used in modern sunscreens because they provide excellent UV protection while being transparent on the skin, minimizing the chalky appearance often associated with larger particles.

TiO2 as a Whitening Agent and Opacifier

Beyond UV protection, Titanium Dioxide is a highly effective whitening agent and opacifier. Its high refractive index gives it exceptional hiding power, making it a staple in foundations, concealers, powders, and other makeup products where even skin tone and coverage are desired. It imparts a bright, clean appearance and can neutralize unwanted undertones. When you buy Titanium Dioxide for cosmetic applications, ensure it is cosmetic-grade and meets all regulatory requirements.

Choosing the Right TiO2 for Cosmetics

  • Nanometer Grade TiO2: For sunscreens and products where transparency is key, nanometer-grade TiO2 is the preferred choice. We offer specially processed, coated nanometer grades designed for optimal UV protection and skin feel.
  • Micronized TiO2: For makeup applications requiring excellent opacity and coverage, micronized TiO2 particles offer superior performance.
  • Coated TiO2: Many cosmetic-grade TiO2 products are surface-treated (e.g., with alumina or silica) to improve dispersibility in cosmetic bases and enhance photostability.
