The FDA has proposed the addition of bemotrizinol, a sunscreen ingredient already widely used in Europe and Asia, to the list of permitted products in the United States. This proposal marks the first significant update to sunscreen regulations in over twenty years, aiming to modernize standards and expand options for American consumers. The American Academy of Dermatology Association and various coalitions have welcomed this move, highlighting the importance of keeping pace with global sunscreen advancements. As discussions continue, it appears that Americans may soon benefit from a broader selection of effective sun protection choices.
