Although there are no official analytical methods for UV filters determination in sunscreen cosmetics, their maximum content are regulated by legislation, and then analytical methods to control these products are necessary. In this paper, analytical methods for UV filters determination in cosmetics, which can be found in the literature, are reviewed. The usefulness of the analytical methods, techniques and sample preparation is discussed. The analytical methods used for the determination of UV filters in other type of samples are commented upon. Moreover, a brief overview of the European Union legislation concerning UV filters is included.
