Sunscreening compositions and methods for using the same to protect human skin from erythema producing ultraviolet radiation by applying to the skin a cosmetic carrier composition containing an effective amount to substantially prevent erythema of a cationic para-amino benzoate ester of a substituted amino alkanol. Sunscreening compositions containing cationic para-amino benzoates when applied to the skin have been found to be substantially uneffected by moisture from perspiration or swimming and are, therefore, substantive in form. |
