Fine

Derived from EU CosIng regulatory status, PubChem hazard data and published research. How we score.

A glycosylated benzophenone UV absorber derivative with improved water solubility compared to conventional benzophenone filters, though with limited toxicity data.

This glucoside derivative of a hydroxybenzophenone UV filter represents a newer class of photostable sunscreen ingredients. While the parent compound benzophenone-3 is restricted in EU Annex III (max 6%), this specific glycosylated derivative lacks sufficient toxicological data for full safety assessment and is not yet formally listed in EU cosmetic regulation.
