A photostable cosmetic composition for protection against UVA and UVB radiations of wavelengths between 280 and 400 nm, which comprises, in a cosmetically acceptable vehicle: (i) at least one UVA-sunscreen agents absorbing predominantly in the UVA-range; (ii) at least one UVB-sunscreen agents absorbing predominantly in the UVB-range; (iii) at least 0.1% by weight of a 2-hydroxy sulfobetaine of cinnamidoalkyl amine compound.

The invention provides a sunblocking cream which is natural and resists ultraviolet B (UVB) radiation and ultraviolet A (UVA) radiation, and can improve the resisting and defending capacity of the human body cells to ultraviolet radiation. The product comprises the following raw materials in parts by weight: 0.5-5 parts of zingiber corallinum hance essential oil, 0.5-1 parts of curcuma oil, 0.5-1parts of zedoary turmeric oil, 5-8 parts of emulsifier, 1-5 parts of humectant, 1-3 parts of active agent, 8-10 parts of excipient and 62.8-72.3 parts of pure water, and is prepared by the following steps: mixing and heating aqueous phase substances, namely the humectant, active agent and pure water to the temperature of 85-87 DEG C; evenly mixing and heating oil phase substances, namely the zingiber corallinum hance essential oil, curcuma oil, zedoary turmeric oil, emulsifier and excipient to the temperature of 85-87 DEG C; and slowly pouring the oil phase into the aqueous phase, stirring and evenly mixing, homogenizing for 5-10 minutes at the temperature of 85-87 DEG C, and cooling. The sunblocking cream of the invention resists the UVB radiation and UVA radiation, can improve the resisting and defending capacity of the human body cells to ultraviolet radiation, can promote skin cell division and accelerates self renewal of the skin cells; the skin does not generate erythema after being exposed to the sun, and can not be tanned; and the sunblocking cream has good sunblocking effect, low application cost, simple and feasible preparation method.

The invention relates to a method for determining an integral sun protection factor (summa SPF or iSPF) which encompasses both UVA and UVB radiation and can be used for classifying cosmetic and dermatological sunscreens. The method comprises the steps of applying a defined amount of the sunscreen onto a defined area of a skin substrate impregnated with a spin trap, exposing the skin substrate to a defined amount of UVA- and UVB rays by a sun simulator, subjecting the skin substrate exposed to radiation to an electron spin resonance (ESR) measurement, recording the number of free radicals trapped as a real number x 1012 free radicals / mg of skin sample, and determining the integral sun protection factor o SPF according to the equations (1) and (2) and (8).
