They provide coverage and protection against ultraviolet rays in sunscreen and makeup products.<\/p>\n<p>  Ingredient type: Pigment<\/p>\n<p> Safety: Generally safe for topical use. However, it is crucial to ensure that nanoparticles, if present, are encapsulated so that they do not penetrate the skin barrier.<\/p>\n<p>\u2728 Vegan: Yes, inorganic oxides are mineral-based and therefore compatible with vegan ethics.<\/p>\n<p>\u2728 Note: Although effective, these oxides can cause opacity or a white effect on the skin, especially on darker hair. Well-formulated products limit this effect to provide a natural finish. It is also important to check local regulations regarding the use of nanoparticles.<\/p>\n<p>  Found in: Sunscreens, foundations, compact powders, concealers, and other makeup products with tinted and protective properties.<\/p>\n<p><strong>comedogenic index:\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_kad_blocks_custom_css":"","_kad_blocks_head_custom_js":"","_kad_blocks_body_custom_js":"","_kad_blocks_footer_custom_js":"","_kad_post_transparent":"","_kad_post_title":"","_kad_post_layout":"","_kad_post_sidebar_id":"","_kad_post_content_style":"","_kad_post_vertical_padding":"","_kad_post_feature":"","_kad_post_feature_position":"","_kad_post_header":false,"_kad_post_footer":false,"_kad_post_classname":""},"class_list":["post-42790","ingredient","type-ingredient","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"taxonomy_info":[],"featured_image_src_large":false,"author_info":[],"comment_info":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beautydecoded.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ingredient\/42790","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beautydecoded.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ingredient"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beautydecoded.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/ingredient"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beautydecoded.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=42790"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
