Harm score: 4 (Slightly harmful chemistry)
Butyl Methoxydibenzoylmethane, also known as Avobenzone, Butyl-4-Methoxy-Dibenzoylmethane or 1,3-PROPANEDIONE, is a chemical compound essential for protecting the skin against harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays. It is a substance that can be found in many products that people use daily for personal care and everyday life. This organic compound has the ability to absorb UV rays, which helps to protect the skin and prevent damage from the sun's harmful rays.
Avobenzone is typically used in sunscreens and other cosmetic products that have a UV filter. It is the main ingredient in many sunscreens and skin protection creams as it can absorb a wide spectrum of UVA radiation, which is considered the most harmful. Since Avobenzone can lose its effectiveness after a while in the sun, it is often combined with other substances to stabilize its chemical structure and prolong its protective effects. In addition, Avobenzone can also appear in a number of other products, including moisturizers, lipsticks, makeup and hair shampoos.
