This formulation was designed to provide broad spectrum (SPF/PFA ≤3) performance. HallBrite® ISO is incorporated to mitigate the photocatalytic and reactive oxygen species generating activities of Titanium Dioxide and to rapidly and efficiently quench the excited states of Avobenzone, protecting it from photodegradation, and so improve sunscreen performance. HallBrite® BHB aids wetting and dispersion of the Titanium Dioxide and contributes to UV filter solubility and enhanced product feel. This formulation was subjected to in vitro analysis and delivered SPF ~26, PFA (PPD) ~10 performance with critical wavelength 379 nm.

1 | To a secondary vessel add phase A, start mixing, slowly add phase B and begin heating phase AB to 85°C as phase B disperses. |
2 | When phase B is fully dispersed, add phase C ingredients to phase AB and when fully dispersed add phase D to phase ABC. |
3 | Add the water from phase E to the main vessel, dissolve Disodium EDTA and, with continued mixing, add Xanthan Gum. |
4 | When Xanthan Gum is fully incorporated start heating phase E to 80°C and add premix of phase F to phase E. |
5 | When both phases are homogeneous and at their designated temperatures, slowly add oil phase ABCD to water phase EF with prop mixing. |
6 | Homogenize combined phases for 3 minutes and then return to prop mixing, continuing to cool to room temperature. |
7 | Replace any water lost to evaporation, mix batch until smooth and perform quality assurance checks. |
