BHT (Butylated Hydroxytoluene) in Face Moisturizer

Prevents oils and fats from going rancid, extending the shelf life of lipsticks, moisturizers, and other oil-based products.

In our database, 10 face moisturizer products contain BHT (Butylated Hydroxytoluene) as a flagged ingredient. The actual number on the market is likely much higher, as our database covers major brands but not every product available.

Risk depends on exposure route and frequency. Face Moisturizer products are applied to the skin, where ingredients can be absorbed into the bloodstream. Mild concern; consider alternatives if using multiple BHT-containing products.

Look for face moisturizer products that use tocopherol (vitamin E), rosemary extract, ascorbic acid (vitamin C) instead of BHT (Butylated Hydroxytoluene). Numbrrrz lip balm uses only organic, food-grade ingredients and contains zero flagged chemicals.
