First new sunscreen ingredient in 25 years reaches US shelves

Original: The first new sunscreen type in 25 years has arrived on US store shelves

The sunscreen ingredient bemotrizinol, widely used in Europe and Asia for years, has finally been approved by the FDA and is now appearing in American products. It is the first new sunscreen filter cleared in the US in roughly 25 years. Commenters are discussing why approval took so long and what the ingredient's broad-spectrum, photostable protection means for consumers.

Why now: The FDA approval of a new sunscreen ingredient after a 25-year gap is a notable health and consumer milestone.
