Ethylhexyl Methoxycrylene

Ethylhexyl Methoxycrylene. Skin Conditioning

This ingredient is a photostabilizer and a chemical UV booster. It is marketed as an alternative to octocrylene.

You'll most likely find it in sunscreens to enhance stability and effectiveness of UV filters, antioxidants, and vitamin A derivatives. According to the manufacturer, this ingredient is better than octocrylene at stabilizing avobenzone.

Due to regulation loopholes, you'll likely see this ingredient in "100% mineral" sunscreens.
