Bisoctrizole
INCI: methylene bis-benzotriazolyl tetramethylbutylphenol
Bisoctrizole is the INCI name of Tinosorb M — a hybrid UV filter in which an organic absorber is embedded in microfine particles, combining absorption with light scattering like a mineral filter. It delivers broad UVB/UVA protection, excellent photostability, negligible skin penetration, and a superb tolerability record. The particle character adds modest visible-light attenuation, helpful for pigment conditions aggravated by blue light. EU-approved since 2000 and standard in premium European sun care. Look for it (and its partner Tinosorb S) when selecting sunscreens by filter quality rather than marketing — the filter list tells the truth a label’s claims cannot.
