About

Calcium Acetate is a cosmetic ingredient used in product formulations. Its specific function may vary between products. Exercise caution due to limited available safety data.

Calcium acetate is an inorganic salt widely used in food, pharmaceuticals, and cosmetics as a pH adjuster, firming agent, and calcium supplement. It is not listed in any EU cosmetic restriction annexes. As a calcium source, it supports skin barrier function and is considered low risk for topical application. Extensive use in food products over decades supports its favorable safety profile.
