PARSOL® SLX (INCI: Polysilicone-15) is a silicone-based UV-B absorber. This colorless to pale yellow viscous liquid can be easily incorporated into the oil phase of sunscreen formulations. PARSOL® SLX is the first polymeric UV-B filter composed of chromophores bound to a silicone backbone and serves as an effective photostabilizer for PARSOL® 1789. When combined with PARSOL® HS, this product can achieve a very high Sun Protection Factor (SPF > 30), enabling the development of daily care or sun care formulations that leave a dry, silky feel on the skin.
The MyMicrobiome Standard evaluates cosmetic and personal care products, that encounter the skin or mucous membrane, in terms of their influence on the microbiome located at a specific body site.
An intact skin microbiome has a fundamental influence on skin health. Products which are to be skin-friendly must also be Microbiome-friendly in order not to unbalance the skin of the user.
The MyMicrobiome Standard evaluates the influence of cosmetic and personal care products on the microbial key players of a specific skin or mucous membrane area. The human microbiome is very individual from person to person.
Each area, however, harbors a characteristic composition of bacteria, viruses and fungi. The test examines the products influence on the key organisms typical for each skin area and thus offers a standardized procedure.
