BHT

rating: Neutral

This is short for butylated hydroxytoluene, a strong synthetic antioxidant that can be harmful to health when taken internally. Some cosmetic products use BHT in minimal amounts of 0.01-0.1% and its addition shouldn’t pose a risk as it does not penetrate the skin far enough to be absorbed into the bloodstream.
