Magnesium Silicate is best considered with its source, material form and intended exposure in view. The checked assessment requires a non-irritating formula and has insufficient evidence for naturally mined material in products that may be incidentally inhaled.

Those conditions should not become a blanket conclusion about every mineral cosmetic. Talc inhalation reports and experiments using lithium-containing hydrogels or other silicates concern different materials or exposures. No applicable exact-material human seb derm or independent Malassezia result was found. Follow the finished product’s intended use and seek advice if it repeatedly causes discomfort.
