Abstract

Provided are skin care compositions that are useful as SPF and UV absorption boosters in formulations containing inorganic metal oxides. The compositions comprise (a) (a) copolymer particles; (b) voided latex particles; (c) inorganic metal oxide particles; and (d) one or more dermatologically acceptable carriers. Also provided are methods of protecting skin from UVA and UVB damage comprising topically administering such compositions to the skin, and methods of boosting the SPF or UV absorption of a sunscreen composition containing inorganic metal oxide particles comprising including such copolymer particles and voided latex particles in the composition.
