Protecting your skin against UV radiation can prevent the signs of aging. Sun damage is associated with fine-lines, wrinkles, loss of firmness, and hyperpigmentation. Titanium dioxide can help prevent premature aging.
With modern production, nano-scale or fine-grade titanium dioxide can be easily produced for cosmetics. In sunscreen, titanium dioxide absorbs UV light. Our skin is not able to absorb Titanium dioxide, even nanoparticles.
Titanium itself is the 9th most common element in the Earth's crust. Titanium dioxide is formed when oxygen is introduced and can be found in ores, dust, sand, and soil.
Pure titanium dioxide is a white powder that is used in many products to add or change color.

The way this became a holy grail at first use! Disclaimer, 1) I’m using this as a bb cream (I’m still applying sunscreen underneath) and 2) I have really pale, neutral/yellow undertone dry skin with rough patches and most skin products break me out and/or look cakey on me.
It is PERFECT for my skin. It applies really easily with fingers with no cakey-ness. It has a really natural finish, is Show more
Returned. Neither color or texture blended with my skin. Not worth it.
