Sunscreen Agents / UV Filters

White to slightly tinted powders or oils, sunscreen agents provide broad-spectrum UV protection in daily skincare, SPF makeup, and outdoor protection formulas. 

Popular INCI ingredients in this segment include Zinc Oxide and Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate. Reef-safe, broad-spectrum filters are increasingly preferred. Sub-types include mineral-based for sensitive skin and chemical-based for invisible protection. Must comply with FDA and EU sunscreen safety regulations.
