Risks of chemical UV filters: What many sunscreens hide
Chemical UV filters such as Oxybenzon, Octinoxate, Avobenzon, Octocrylen or Homosalate act by absorb UV radiation and convert into heat. This technology is effective, but it brings with it several potential disadvantages - both for the skin and for the entire organism.
Effects of chemical filters on the skin
Skin irritation and allergies: Some chemical filters, especially Oxybenzon and Avobenzon, are suspected of triggering contact dermatitis or redness, especially for sensitive skin.
Oxidative stress: Some filters can become unstable under sunlight and release free radicals. This can accelerate the skin aging and damage cells.
Disorder of the skin barrier: Regular use can affect the natural protective layer of the skin and make it more susceptible.
Systemic effects on the body
Hormonal changes: Chemical filters such as oxybenzon or homosalate are considered potential endocrine disruptors. You can intervene in the hormone system and disturb its natural balance.
Evidence in the blood: Studies such as those of the FDA from 2019 show that these substances can be measured after applying in the blood. The concentrations were often above the threshold considered harmless.
Unclear long -term consequences: Since long -term studies are missing, possible effects on fertility, thyroid or cancer are still being discussed.
Further concerns
Unstable formulations: Filters like Avobenzon quickly disintegrate when UV radiation. To keep them stable, additional fabrics such as octocrylas are often required.
Environmental damage: Chemical UV filters burden sea ecosystems and damage coral reefs. For this reason, they are prohibited in certain regions, such as Hawaii.
Chemical sunscreens offer protection, but can strain skin, body and the environment. Mineral filters such as zinc oxide are considered safe, gentle and environmentally friendly alternative for daily sun protection. The organic facial sunscreen from Swiss Tallow offers exactly that: natural UV protection with zinc oxide and high-quality cattle valley from Swiss pasture farming. It is particularly well tolerated, free from chemical additives and ideal for sensitive skin and responsible skin care.
