About

A generic calcium listing — in cosmetics this is always a calcium salt (chloride, gluconate, etc), used at low % for mineral claims. Safety depends on the specific salt.

Skin benefits

  • Mineral element — supports skin homeostasis
  • Used in masks/treatments
  • Compatible with most formulas

Known concerns

  • Pure calcium metal would react with water — actually used as salts
  • Generic listing — actual species/safety depends on form
