mattifier
Silica is a mattifier backed by documented evidence (evidence tier 4 of 4). We track 2 studies for it.
ACS Nano · 2012 · in vitro
On human skin, amorphous silica nanoparticles (42-291 nm) behaved size-dependently: only the smallest (42 nm) penetrated into the epidermis of barrier-disrupted skin, while larger particles did not. Cellular uptake by skin cells was also size-dependent and was reduced by particle aggregation.
Toxicology Letters · 2024 · in vitro
Using particle-specific analytics (AF4-ICP-MS on receptor fluids and SEM/EDX on skin layers), synthetic amorphous silica used in cosmetics did not penetrate skin in penetration tests. Combined with a dermal toxicity review, the authors concluded dermal exposure to cosmetic SAS is negligible.
