Uvinul T 150
Ethylhexyl TriazoneSPF filter
Modern UVB filter. Strong UVB absorber; lightweight feel; EU/AU/JP-approved, not US.
What it does
Uvinul T 150 is one of the most efficient UVB absorbers per unit weight in the modern filter family. Photostable, lightweight skin feel, and well-tolerated. Common in modern EU sunscreens that need high UVB coverage without the 'thick' sunscreen feel of zinc-heavy mineral formulations. Like Tinosorb and Uvinul A Plus, not yet US FDA-approved.
