This episode will discuss strategies to boost SPF and UVA values without increasing the concentration of actives. Antioxidants and anti-inflammatory agents, emollients that stabilize UV filters, film formers, and synergy between organic and inorganic actives help create high-performance formulas and meet consumer needs.
