  1. TalcHigh concernMineral powder. IARC classified talc as probably carcinogenic to humans (Group 2A) in 2024, and cosmetic talc must be free of asbestos, which it can occur alongside. The EU requires a warning to keep children's powders away from the nose and mouth.
    What it is
    Its recorded role: abrasive and skin protecting. About Talc

    Mineral powder. IARC classified talc as probably carcinogenic to humans (Group 2A) in 2024, and cosmetic talc must be free of asbestos, which it can occur alongside. The EU requires a warning to keep children's powders away from the nose and mouth.
    Regulatory basis
    EU Cosmetics Regulation, Annex III — allowed only within set limits and conditions; Greenveil's curated cosmetic-ingredient concern list.
    How sure we are
    High confidence. The label names this substance exactly.
  2. Ci 77891Minor concernPermitted white pigment and UV filter. Inhaled titanium dioxide powder is a suspected carcinogen, so the EU restricts it in loose face powders and hair sprays and bars it from any product that could be breathed in; in creams, toothpaste and other non-sprayed products those limits do not come into play.
