Description
CI 77891 is the color index name for titanium dioxide, a mineral pigment widely used in cosmetics and personal care products. In formulas, it mainly serves as a white pigment and opacifier, helping products look brighter, more even, and less transparent. It also improves coverage and color consistency, which is why you’ll find it in foundations, powders, sunscreens, lip products, and many other makeup items. Because it disperses well, it helps create a smooth, uniform finish on skin.
For skin, CI 77891 is especially useful in products designed to even out tone, add coverage, or increase opacity. In sunscreens, titanium dioxide is also used as a UV filter, where it helps reduce the amount of UV radiation reaching the skin. In hair products, it may be added mainly for color and visual effect rather than treatment benefits. People who like a more polished, bright, or high-coverage finish may benefit most from it.
Caveat: CI 77891 is generally valued for its cosmetic performance, but it can sometimes leave a white cast, especially in deeper skin tones or in mineral sunscreens if the formula isn’t well balanced. As with any ingredient, the overall product formula matters more than the ingredient alone.
