Ingredient

Butyl Methoxydibenzoylmethane (Avobenzone)

Flagged in 12

Scout's take

Chemical UV filter added to prevent fragrance discoloration in clear/blue bottles. Documented photoallergen and shows mild estrogenic activity in cell and animal studies — concerning for a leave-on product applied to the neck and wrists daily.
