Ingredients Details
Bis-ethylhexyloxyphenol Methoxyphenyl Triazine
Common Name(s): Bis-ethylhexyloxyphenol methoxyphenyl triazine,antimicrobial biocide,broad-spectrum preservative-grade
CAS Number: N/a
DESCRIPTION
What It Does: Kills bacteria, fungi, and viruses on skin and within formulations through membrane disruption, protein denaturation, or enzyme inhibition โ providing antiseptic, preservation, or therapeutic antimicrobial protection.
Why It's Used: Chosen when broad-spectrum antimicrobial coverage including gram-negative bacteria (particularly pseudomonas) is required, where standard cosmetic preservatives provide insufficient protection for challenge tests.
How It Works: Cationic biocides (qacs) adsorb electrostatically to negative microbial surfaces then insert hydrophobic chains into lipid bilayers, collapsing membrane potential. non-ionic biocides (triclosan) inhibit fatty acid synthesis (fabi enoyl reductase). oxidants (hโoโ, chlorine dioxide) oxidise microbial thiol enzymes non-specifically.
Typically Found In: Antiseptics,therapeutic skin care
TECHNICAL DETAILS
Primary Category: Active ingredient โ cosmetic active
Secondary Functions: Skin conditioning
Application Areas:
Facial Skincare
Body Care
Hair Care
Beard Care
Color Cosmetics (Makeup)
Dietary/Oral Supplements
Typical Concentration Range: Check regulatory limits
SOURCING & ETHICS
Vegan Status: Yes
Halal Status: Yes
Source Notes: Commercially produced for cosmetic use. verify vegan/halal status with supplier.
SKIN COMPATIBILITY
Irritancy Rating: 1/5 โ very low

SCIENTIFIC NOTE
Regulatory limits vary significantly by compound and application โ formulators must verify permitted concentrations in target market (eu annex v, fda otc monographs) before formulating at functional concentrations.

Diethylamino Hydroxybenzoyl Hexyl Benzoate
Common Name(s): Diethylamino hydroxybenzoyl hexyl benzoate,organic uv filter,photostabilising sunscreen active
CAS Number: N/a
DESCRIPTION
What It Does: Absorbs uv radiation at specific wavelengths (uva 320โ400 nm, uvb 290โ320 nm) and dissipates photon energy as heat rather than skin-damaging photochemical reactions.
Why It's Used: Organic uv filters are chosen for their high molar extinction coefficient, specific spectral coverage, and formulation compatibility โ individual filters are combined to provide broad-spectrum coverage across uva+uvb.
How It Works: Uv photon absorption by the aromatic chromophore ฯ-system excites the molecule from sโ ground state to sโ excited state. rapid internal conversion or photoisomerisation dissipates energy as vibrational heat before it can initiate skin photodamage.
Typically Found In: Sunscreens,photoprotective products
TECHNICAL DETAILS
Primary Category: Active ingredient โ cosmetic active
Secondary Functions: Skin conditioning
Application Areas:
Facial Skincare

Dietary/Oral Supplements
Typical Concentration Range: Check local sunscreen regulations

SAFETY & COMPATIBILITY
Safety Profile: Good safety profile at recommended concentrations. ewg score: 1โ2.
Works Well With: Standard skincare actives
Avoid Combining With: No known significant incompatibilities
SCIENTIFIC NOTE
Organic uv filters require photostabilisation (by avobenzone-octocrylene pairing, or triazine stabilisers) as some absorbers degrade on uv exposure โ formulator must verify photostability of the chosen filter combination.

Ethylhexyl Triazone
Common Name(s): Uvinul t 150,octyl triazone,eht
CAS Number: 88122-99-0
DESCRIPTION
What It Does: Provides maximum spf contribution per unit concentration from the highest-extinction-coefficient uvb filter.
Why It's Used: Most spf-efficient uvb filter โ eht provides 6ร more spf contribution per gram than omc, enabling high-spf formulations with minimal uv filter load.
How It Works: Three benzotriazole chromophores on triazine core provide ฮตmax ~155,000 (vs omc ~24,000 โ 6ร more potent). photostable from triazine scaffold preventing chromophore photodegradation. oil-soluble for lipid phase.
Typically Found In: High-spf european sunscreens
TECHNICAL DETAILS
Primary Category: Active ingredient โ efficient uvb filter
Secondary Functions: Skin conditioning
Application Areas:
Facial Skincare
Body Care

Safe for Sensitive Skin: Yes
SAFETY & COMPATIBILITY
Safety Profile: Eu approved. not fda approved. ewg score: 1.
Works Well With: Standard skincare actives
Avoid Combining With: No known significant incompatibilities
SCIENTIFIC NOTE
Ethylhexyl triazone's ฮตmax of ~155,000 l/molยทcm is 6ร greater than omc (~24,000), 48ร greater than homosalate (~3,200), and represents the practical upper limit of organic uvb filter molar absorptivity. this extraordinary absorption coefficient arises from three benzotriazole chromophores geometrically arranged on the triazine core to simultaneously absorb uvb photons โ a triplex chromophore design providing additive absorptivity.
