NOTE: UV filter usage data purchased from Euromonitor for cosmetics, personal care products, and sunscreens is also presented.
a Per annum tonnage band reported in the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA) database for the ingredient.
b Data reported in U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Chemical Data Reporting (CDR) program under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA). The tonnage has been aggregated based on the reported product category. In cases where product category was not listed, no use specified is reported. The total number of entries per product category are listed and if any tonnage data was reported as zero or confidential business information (CBI) the number of entries fitting these criteria are also reported.
c The U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s Voluntary Cosmetic Reporting Program (VCRP) is a voluntary reporting system for use by manufacturers, packers, and distributors of cosmetic products in the United States. It does not apply to professional cosmetic products (e.g., salons, spas, skin care clinics). The product frequency within the database is provided. Product frequency could serve as a proxy for usage, where a higher frequency could translate to higher use in cosmetics and personal care products.
d The U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s Voluntary Cosmetic Reporting Program (VCRP) product frequency for ingredient in 2016.
e The U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s Voluntary Cosmetic Reporting Program (VCRP) product frequency for ingredient in 2017.
f The U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s Voluntary Cosmetic Reporting Program (VCRP) product frequency for ingredient in 2018.
g The U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s Voluntary Cosmetic Reporting Program (VCRP) product frequency for ingredient in 2019.
h The U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s Voluntary Cosmetic Reporting Program (VCRP) product frequency for ingredient in 2020.
i Euromonitor sales data for cosmetics and personal care products in 2019. The data is also reported by product categories created by Euromonitor.
j Euromonitor reports “other sunscreens.”
k Euromonitor reports tonnage data for “benzophenones” rather than the individual ingredients Oxybenzone, Sulisobenzone, Dioxybenzone.
