About

A plasticizer-type ingredient with much more baggage than benefit, mainly because phthalates raise endocrine and reproductive concern.

Diisononyl phthalate is a high-production-volume phthalate plasticizer rather than a classic skincare active. The phthalate class is heavily scrutinized for endocrine and developmental concerns, and even though dermal exposure in a finished cosmetic may be limited, the toxicology baggage and persistence concerns are enough to keep this score low.

Function

ANTICAKING

Known concerns

  • Phthalate with endocrine disruption concern
  • Persistence and cumulative exposure concerns
