What’s inside
TalcGenerally safe
A mineral powder valued for its absorbent and soft-feel properties in cosmetics. Cosmetic-grade talc is required to be asbestos-free; inhalation risk from topical application is minimal. Generally well tolerated when used as intended.

Full ingredient details →Cetearyl GlucosideGenerally safe
