Titanium (IV) Oxide

Titanium(lV) oxide is a chemical widely used in industry and at home. It is primarily used in pigments and metal alloys.

Skin contact to Titanium(IV) oxide is required for it to cause a rash. Discontinuation of exposure to products containing Titanium(IV) oxide should result in improvement and/or the resolution of your dermatitis. By law, all products made in the U.S. for topical use have the ingredients listed either on the product package or the box that contains it, so check the labeling of your skincare products for this ingredient. If there is no information ask your pharmacist or call the company directly. At work, request a Safety Data Sheet (SDS) to help identify potential sources of exposure.
