Substantially anhydrous compositions including at least 10% by weight of a C2 or C3 mono-alcohol, a solid, organic UV-filter other than oxybenzone dissolved therein and an oil portion including one or more oils, the oil portion having an interfacial tension with water of greater than 9 and less than 45, where the composition has a volume fraction of oil relative to oil plus C2 or C3 mono-alcohol that is about 0.20 or greater, and is substantially free of oxybenzone.
