I'm sure Wikipedia has a formal method of presenting chemicals, with formulas, etc. but I don't know it right now. Page needs some cleaning up. Carax 05:15, 21 July 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Stability issues

Unfortunately, Paula Begoun is not a good source when it comes to avobenzone as she refuses to aknowledge the photo(in)stability issues. Will add sources and do a writeup as soon as I finish the Tinosorb article. -- EmpĀ² 19:40, 8 June 2006 (UTC)

What about all the research that shows that Avobenzone is stable? I have only seen a few original studies that suggest Avobenzone isn't stable, and dozens of studies that suggest it is. 203.214.84.81 07:31, 15 September 2006 (UTC)


the part about the titanium dioxide and avobenzone combination is wrong, i have a thing of banana boat spf 50 in front of me that has avobenzone 1% and titanium dioxide listed in the ingredients.
