Is BHT safe to use in skin care?

short answer yes it’s safe to use in skinscare. in the Eu limit is set at 0.8%. in skincare it’s much lower

BHT (butylated hydroxytoluene) is a synthetic antioxidant that is commonly used in skincare and other consumer products to prevent oxidation and prolong shelf life. BHT has been used safely in small amounts in food and cosmetics for many years, and it is generally considered safe by regulatory agencies when used in concentrations of up to 0.5% in skincare products. However, some studies have suggested that BHT may have negative health effects when ingested in large amounts or applied to the skin over a long period of time. Some animal studies have suggested that BHT may have endocrine-disrupting effects and could potentially be carcinogenic. While there is no clear evidence that BHT is dangerous when used in small amounts in skincare products, some people may prefer to avoid it due to potential concerns. If you are concerned about using products that contain BHT, you may wish to look for skincare products that do not contain this ingredient, or consult with a dermatologist to determine the best products for your individual needs.

Thanks :)
