Product Description:
Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate, also known as Octyl Methoxycinnamate or OMC, is a widely used organic compound in the personal care industry, primarily functioning as a UV filter. This colorless, oil-soluble liquid is highly effective in protecting the skin from the harmful effects of UVB radiation. Our high-purity Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate is formulated to ensure superior performance and safety in various sunscreen and cosmetic products.
Function:
UVB Protection: Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate absorbs UVB rays (290-320 nm), providing broad-spectrum protection against sunburn and skin damage caused by UVB radiation. This helps prevent premature skin aging and reduces the risk of skin cancer.
Photostability: This ingredient is known for its photostable properties, meaning it maintains its effectiveness when exposed to sunlight. This ensures prolonged protection during sun exposure.
Compatibility: Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate is compatible with a wide range of other cosmetic ingredients, making it an ideal component in diverse formulations. It blends well with other UV filters to enhance overall sun protection.
Skin Conditioning: Besides its UV protection capabilities, Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate acts as a skin-conditioning agent, helping to keep the skin moisturized and smooth.
Low Irritancy: It is generally well-tolerated by most skin types, with a low risk of irritation or sensitization, making it suitable for inclusion in daily skincare products.
Application:
Sunscreens: Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate is a key ingredient in sunscreen formulations, providing effective UVB protection. It helps in preventing sunburn and protecting the skin from long-term damage caused by sun exposure.
Daily Moisturizers: It is used in daily moisturizers with SPF to offer daily sun protection. This helps in protecting the skin from incidental sun exposure during routine activities.
Makeup Products: Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate is incorporated into various makeup products such as foundations, powders, and lip balms to provide added sun protection while enhancing the aesthetic appeal.
Hair Care Products: It is also used in hair care products like shampoos and conditioners with UV protection claims, helping to protect hair from UV damage and maintain its color and health.
Anti-Aging Products: By protecting the skin from UV-induced aging, Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate is a valuable ingredient in anti-aging skincare formulations, helping to prevent wrinkles, fine lines, and age spots.
After-Sun Products: It is included in after-sun lotions and creams to soothe and protect the skin from further damage after sun exposure, promoting skin recovery and hydration.
