Diana, thank you for your comment. All the studies I’ve found so far claim that Oxybenzone, at the concentrations at which it is used atm, isn’t toxic. Here are a few links: http://www.karger.com/Article/FullText/85861, http://www.thelancet.com/journals/lancet/article/PIIS0140-6736%2805%2978720-1/fulltext and http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/j.1473-2165.2010.00484.x/abstract?userIsAuthenticated=false&deniedAccessCustomisedMessage=.

However, because it can be absorbed by the body, dermatologists recommend not to use it on children.

But I will do some more research and see if, in recent months, some new proof of its safety or lack of it has surfaced.

Jeni, that is ironic indeed! And what a shame!

LaDamaBianca, che peccato! Questo filtro non piace molto neanche a me. Non penso sia pericoloso ma ce ne sono di più efficaci e meno irritanti come Zinc Oxide o Titanium Dioxide.
