Abstract

The present disclosure relates, according to some embodiments, to a method of determining a quantitatively measured photoprotection of a photoprotective composition, the method comprising: (a) distributing the photoprotective composition in a position in between a drawdown bar and at least one substrate to produce a distributed photoprotective composition; (b) drawing down the distributed photoprotective composition to a thickness on at least one substrate to produce a drawn down sample film; (c) drying the drawn down sample film to produce a dried sample film; (d) measuring a UV absorption of the dried sample film to produce a UV absorption spectrum; (e) determining the quantitatively measured photoprotection of the photoprotective composition from the UV absorption spectrum.
