“—” means no specific record for that ingredient in that jurisdiction's lists — it is not an approval. Restricted ingredients are allowed within limits (concentration, product type, label warnings); a product listing one is not necessarily over the limit. How we check.

Can I take it to Hawaii? — reef sunscreen laws

Checked against this formula's UV filters. These laws cover sunscreens sold — and in some places used — without a prescription.

Hawaii state and U.S. Virgin Islands laws exclude products sold as face cosmetics without a sunscreen claim; SPF products are sunscreens. Information only — check the latest rules before you travel.

Fragrance allergens (EU labelling)

None of the fragrance allergens the EU requires to be labelled appear in this ingredient list.

Source: EU Cosmetics Regulation Annex III as amended by Regulation (EU) 2023/1545 — the list grew from 26 to over 80 entries; it applies to new products from 31 July 2026 and to all products from 31 July 2028. Shown for information; it is not a sign that a product is unsafe.

Storage & heat

Official storage statements

“Protect the product in this container from excessive heat and direct sun.” — Required 'Other information' statement for sunscreens sold in the U.S. (FDA OTC Monograph M020)

“Keep out of direct sunlight. Keep out of reach of children.” — Common precautions required on all cosmetics in Korea (Cosmetics Act Enforcement Rule, Annex 3)

Our note — heat, light & air

No ingredients on our heat/light/air list. Even so, cosmetics last longest closed, cool and out of direct sun.

Don't leave sunscreen in a hot car or in direct sun on the beach — heat can separate the formula and lower protection.

Other markets

Ingredients in this formula that are prohibited or limited in other markets, from the overseas regulation database compiled by Korea's MFDS. Limited means allowed within conditions.
