Bis-Ethylhexyloxyphenol Methoxyphenyl Triazine description

Bis-ethylhexyloxyphenol methoxyphenyl triazine (also known as Tinosorb S or Bemotrizinol) is a synthetic UV filter that delivers broad-spectrum sun protection due to its ability to absorb UVA and UVB rays. Like other UV filters, it is dually considered an anti-aging ingredient in the regard that it helps ward off visible signs of accelerated skin aging triggered by sun exposure. Bis-ethylhexyloxyphenol methoxyphenyl triazine is noted for being highly effective at low concentrations, which is one of the reasons it is a popular choice when high SPF levels are desired. It is also praised for having excellent photostability and is known to help improve the stability of other sunscreen agents. Bis-ethylhexyloxyphenol methoxyphenyl triazine available in many countries around the world, although not currently in the United States (this does not mean this ingredient is not safe, but rather that it is under review in this region). Allowable concentrations vary from country to country, with 10% being the maximum amount permitted globally. Bis-ethylhexyloxyphenol methoxyphenyl triazine comes as a light yellow powder in its raw material form and is oil soluble.
