Stabilization of sunscreens in cosmetic compositions

   
   

Cosmetic compositions containing organic sunscreens along with a 4-substituted resorcinol derivatives of general formula I exhibit improved storage stability and oxidative stability: ##STR1## where each R.sub.1 and R.sub.2, independently, represents a hydrogen atom, --CO--R (acyl group), --COO--R CONHR; where R represents saturated or unsaturated, linear, branched or cyclic C.sub.1 -C.sub.18 hydrocarbon groups; and R.sub.3 represents (1) an alkyl group, having from 1 to 18 carbon atoms, preferably having from 2 to 12 carbon atoms, with or without substitution of one or more hydrogen atoms of a linear alkyl group with a methyl or ethyl group; e.g., R.sub.3 constitutes linear or branched chain alkyls, or (2) a group of the general formula formula (II) ##STR2## Where X is preferably H, n is 0 to 3 and the dashed lines represents an optional double bond.
