Sunscreens: The most Challenging skincare formulations
Sunscreens are equivalent to pharmaceutical formulations
Sunscreens are equivalent to pharmaceutical formulations. Infact, in the US, they are categorized as drugs and subjected to stringent regulations for each constituting component. Similarly, the regulatory controls and quality requirements for sun safe products are getting notched up at global scale. Before making any claim, the product needs to undergo stringent testing under recommended standard conditions to substantiate critical sunscreen parameters such as:
- SPF/PA Ratings
- Water resistance
- Critical Wavelength/Broad-spectrum
- Photostability
- Additional claims like Non-comedogenicity
A Tightrope between Skin Protection and Aesthetics
Most sunscreen filters are heavy oils (leading to greasy formulations) or minerals (leaving white cast). It gets difficult to achieve the right feel and meet the required regulatory guidelines at the same time.
Combining optimal stable SPF/ PA along with desirable aesthetics in Suncare is a challenging problem.
