Reg. 6204 (February 26, 2019). As a global science-based company active in Nutrition, Health and Sustainable Living, DSM is a world leading supplier of vitamins, feed, food, pharmaceutical, cosmetic, personal care and aroma ingredients. In sunscreens, DSM is a leading world-wide provider of numerous UV filters, including Avobenzone. DSM takes human health and safety very seriously and believes that sunscreens are proven and effective interventions that help provide consumer protection against skin cancers and skin damage caused by the sun’s rays. DSM is committed to proactively supporting the safety and availability of existing and new sunscreen active ingredients that help protect public health. DSM requests that FDA modify its proposed rule taking into consideration the comments provided herein. 1. Background and Action Requested Skin cancer is a significant, and largely preventable, public health concern. Sunscreens have been widely and safely used by the general public for their photoprotective properties, including prevention of photocarcinogenesis and photoaging and management of photodermatoses for more than 40 years. FDA’s Sunscreen Monograph rule has identified the permitted active ingredients (UV-filters) for sunscreens since 1978.

  • FDA Proposes Sunscreen Regulation Changes February 2019
    FDA Proposes Sunscreen Regulation Changes February 2019 The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulates sunscreens to ensure they meet safety and eectiveness standards. To improve the quality, safety, and eectiveness of sunscreens, FDA issued a proposed rule that describes updated proposed requirements for sunscreens. Given the recognized public health benets of sunscreen use, Americans should continue to use broad spectrum sunscreen with SPF 15 or higher with other sun protective measures as this important rulemaking eort moves forward. Highlights of FDA’s Proposals Sunscreen active ingredient safety and eectiveness Two ingredients (zinc oxide and titanium dioxide) are proposed to be safe and eective for sunscreen use and two (aminobenzoic acid (PABA) and trolamine salicylate) are 1 proposed as not safe and eective for sunscreen use. FDA proposes that it needs more safety information for the remaining 12 sunscreen ingredients (cinoxate, dioxybenzone, ensulizole, homosalate, meradimate, octinoxate, octisalate, octocrylene, padimate O, sulisobenzone, oxybenzone, avobenzone).

  • Cutaneous Permeation and Penetration of Sunscreens: Formulation Strategies and in Vitro Methods
    cosmetics Review Cutaneous Permeation and Penetration of Sunscreens: Formulation Strategies and In Vitro Methods Silvia Tampucci * ID , Susi Burgalassi ID , Patrizia Chetoni ID and Daniela Monti ID Department of Pharmacy, University of Pisa, 56126 Pisa, Italy; [email protected] (S.B.); [email protected] (P.C.); [email protected] (D.M.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 1 November 2017; Accepted: 7 December 2017; Published: 25 December 2017 Abstract: Sunscreens are the most common products used for skin protection against the harmful effects of ultraviolet radiation. However, as frequent application is recommended, the use of large amount of sunscreens could reflect in possible systemic absorption and since these preparations are often applied on large skin areas, even low penetration rates can cause a significant amount of sunscreen to enter the body. An ideal sunscreen should have a high substantivity and should neither penetrate the viable epidermis, the dermis and the systemic circulation, nor in hair follicle. The research of methods to assess the degree of penetration of solar filters into the skin is nowadays even more important than in the past, due to the widespread use of nanomaterials and the new discoveries in cosmetic formulation technology. In the present paper, different in vitro studies, published in the last five years, have been reviewed, in order to focus the attention on the different methodological approaches employed to effectively assess the skin permeation and retention of sunscreens. Keywords: sunscreens; formulation; in vitro methods; cutaneous permeation; skin penetration 1. Introduction The detrimental effects of human exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation have been widely investigated and can be immediate, as in the case of sunburns, or long-term, causing, in most cases, the formation of oxidizing species responsible of photo-aging, immunosuppression and chronic effects such as photo carcinogenicity [1,2].

It's important to have a healthy and active lifestyle and we encourage this. Some common sense guidelines to keep your skin and eyes safe: • Avoid the hot mid-day sun. Try to schedule your outdoor activities for early morning or early evening. • Make clothing a regular part of protection: o Keep your shirt on o Wear a wide brimmed hat instead of a baseball cap o Wear long sleeves - "rash-guard" or "water'' shirts made from quick drying, breathable material may be most comfortable in hot weather. o "Golf sleeves" can protect your arms and keep you cool in the sun. They can be found in sporting good stores or online. • Be especially careful when on the water, snow or sand as sunlight is reflected upwards from these surfaces. • Don't forget the sunglasses - excess sun exposure causes cataracts. • Encourage your children to practice good sun protection. Early sun damage increases the risk of skin cancer. • Wear a sunscreen that contains specific UVA-blocking ingredients {see below) and an SPF of at least 30. If you are getting sunburns or very tan, you need to 1) use a higher SPF, 2) apply more thickly or reapply more frequently {ideally every 2 hours or more), and/or 3) use a product with better UVA protection.

  • Sun Protection
    DRUG NEWS Recommending the Best Sun Protection Clinical Pearls: o Recommend a “broad-spectrum” sunscreen – one that covers UVB, UVA1, and UVA2. o Recommend SPF 30-50 o Advise on non-pharmacological sun protection methods o Emphasize proper sunscreen application technique o Emphasize skin protection when taking drugs known to cause photosensitivity. Familiarize yourself with known implicated drugs by referring to appendix 2. Background 1-4 The sun emits 3 types of ultraviolet (UV) radiation: UVC (100-290 nm), UVB (290-320 nm), and UVA (320 -400 nm). UVA rays can be further divided into the shorter UVA2 rays and the longer UVA1 rays. UVC rays, the shortest rays, are completely absorbed by the ozone layer, whereas UVB rays penetrate the epidermis and UVA rays, the longest rays, penetrate into the dermis. The main consequence of UVB irradiation is sunburn, but can also include immunosuppression and skin cancer. Consequences of UVA radiation include: phototoxicity (i.e. involvement in drug-induced sun sensitivity reactions), photo-aging, immunosuppression, and skin cancer. What is SPF? 2,5,6,7 It is easy to be misled by Sun Protection Factors (SPF). SPF is assessed through a standardized test by finding the ratio of the minimal dose of solar radiation that produces perceptible erythema (i.e., minimal erythema dose) on sunscreen-protected skin compared with unprotected skin. Sunburn is caused primarily by UVB rays (and shorter UVA2 rays), and thus SPF indicates mostly UVB protection. However, UVA protection is equally important since it is responsible for photo-aging and cancer. Therefore, it is important to look for the phrase “broad spectrum” when choosing a sunscreen as broad spectrum indicates both UVB and UVA protection.

How do sunscreens filter the slip, slop, slap, and wrap sun’s rays? Sunscreens may contain physical or chemical Ethoxyethyl p-methoxycinnamate barriers to screen skin against the sun’s (cinoxate)) ultraviolet radiation (UV radiation). While physical barriers reflect or scatter the UV rays, » Salicylates (Homomenthyl salicylate chemical barriers act by absorbing the UV (homosalate), Ethylhexyl salicylate (octyl radiation before it hits the skin. salicylate/octisalate), Trolamine salicylate General advice is to choose a sunscreen which » Avobenzone (butyl methoxydibenzoylmethane) is broad spectrum, which means it filters both UVA and UVB rays.
