Avobenzone is an oil-soluble, broad-spectrum UVA filter widely used in sunscreens and personal care products to provide effective protection against long-wave UVA radiation (320–400 nm). It belongs to the dibenzoylmethane derivative family and works by absorbing ultraviolet light, converting it into less harmful energy (heat). Avobenzone is recognized for its ability to reduce photo-aging, preventing wrinkles, and protecting skin from sun-induced damage. It is commonly formulated with other UV filters to ensure full-spectrum coverage and improve photostability. Approved in regions like the EU, Japan, and the USA, it is suitable for a wide range of sunscreen and cosmetic formulations, including lotions, creams, and facial products. Also known as 1-(4-Methoxyphenyl)-3-(4-tert-butylphenyl)propane-1,3-dione
