Broad Spectrum Water-in-Silicone Mineral SPF 50+ Sunscreen Lotion

This water-in-silicone sunscreen lotion provides broad spectrum sun protection without using organic UV filters. SolaStay® S1 (Ethylhexyl Methoxycrylene) in HallBrite® EZ-FLO TDX Plus mitigates the photocatalytic and reactive oxygen species-generating activities of the oxides. Six person in vivo testing yielded static SPF 73.4 in an EU lab. In vitro analysis delivered SPF ~68, PFA (PPD) ~20 performance with critical wavelength 374 nm.

PREPARATIVE PROCEDURE

1To the main vessel add phase A, start mixing, heat to 80°C and then add phase B.
2When uniform, slowly add phase C to phase AB and when again uniform add premix of phase D, mixing well until uniform.
3Add phase E to phase ABCD immediately before this oil phase will be combined with the water phase.
4In a secondary vessel combine phase F, mixing until fully incorporated while heating to 75°C.
5When both phases are homogeneous and at temperature, start homogenizing oil phase ABCDE and very slowly add water phase F to it.
6Start cooling this batch to room temperature with continued gentle homogenization.
7When batch is below 50°C add phase G.
