About

Morpholino Oxophenyl Benzoxazole is a cosmetic ingredient. Exercise caution due to limited available safety data.

This benzoxazole derivative acts as a UVA/UVB absorber and is structurally similar to other heterocyclic sunscreen boosters. It is not listed in EU Annex II (banned) or Annex III (restricted), but due to its novelty, long-term safety data are limited. No specific EU cosmographic restriction applies; however, standard REACH notification obligations apply for substances above 1 tonne/year.

Skin benefits

  • Photostabilisation of cosmetic formulations

Known concerns
