BIS-ETHYLHEXYLOXYPHENOL METHOXYPHENYL TRIAZINE
Is BIS-ETHYLHEXYLOXYPHENOL METHOXYPHENYL TRIAZINE safe for seborrheic dermatitis?
Bis-Ethylhexyloxyphenol Methoxyphenyl Triazine, often known as Tinosorb S, is not automatically unsafe for seborrheic dermatitis. It is a broad-spectrum UV filter, but ingredient-specific seb derm evidence is limited and comfort depends on the full sunscreen.
No applicable evidence found for this page shows that this UV filter feeds Malassezia or treats seb derm. The other filters, solvents, emollients and film formers may matter more to sensitive skin. Choose a properly labelled sunscreen that feels comfortable and stop if irritation repeatedly increases.
