In order to promote broad-spectrum protection, most sunscreens are associated with at least two organic filters (UVA and UVB). The combination of avobenzone (BMBM), UVA filter, and octyl methoxycinnamate (EHMC), UVB filter, is well known and widely used in industrial formulations and pharmaceutical compounding, but shows alteration in spectral absorption after UV radiation exposure. The m…
Hair treated with oxidative hair dye may, by various mechanisms, including exposure to solar radiation, presents changes in their characteristics of color, brightness and protein content. In order to avoid this problem, it has been proposed to incorporate antioxidants in hair care products in order to minimize oxidative effects and promote the improvement of the characteristics of the hai…
The use of sunscreens has been considered of utmost relevance not only from the public healthy viewpoint, in function of the augment of the skin cancers, as the well from the cosmetic field, since the Brazilian population has longer life expectation and the healthy skin appearance during aging is required. The exposition to ultraviolet (UV) radiation causes the acceleration of the cutaneo…
Products to dye hair fibers are widely used worldwide by the female and also male population, but by different mechanisms, such as washing procedures, and exposure to solar radiation, the hair fiber can present changes in their color characteristics due to oxidation of natural or synthetic pigments present in hair. Solar radiation is one of the responsible for accelerating the process of …
Products for coloring the hair fibers are widely distributed and used worldwide. There are three types of hair dyes: permanent, semi-permanent and temporary. The molecules in the permanent dye, in principle, should not let the hair fiber, but by different mechanisms, such as washing procedures and exposure to ultraviolet radiation, the hair fiber changes its color characteristics. The sol…
The sunscreens are used to prevent damage caused by UV radiation from the sun, thus protecting the skin from acute and chronic health effects. To promote broad spectrum protection, in most sunscreens, at least two organic filters are associated. The avobenzone is a chemical absorber for UVA and octyl methoxycinnamate are chemical absorbers for UVB. Rutin is a flavonoid used traditionally …

Solar ultraviolet radiation is one of those responsible for accelerating the oxidative processes, both in skin and hair, through the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). This can be prevented or reduced using antioxidants such as flavonoids. The concentration of flavonoids into cosmetic formulations is limited by its low solubility. However, higher concentrations may be incorporat…
