It is allowed under the sunscreen laws of Hawaii statewide, Aruba and the Northern Mariana Islands, but not in Maui County, Hawaiʻi County (Big Island), the U.S. Virgin Islands, Palau and Guam. We can’t confirm it for Thailand's national parks because part of its ingredient data is missing or unidentified. Labels like “Hawaii Act 104 compliant” only mean a product has no oxybenzone or octinoxate; they don’t make a chemical sunscreen legal on Maui or the Big Island. ### Is Australian Gold SPF 30 Spray Gel Bronzer legal in Hawaii? Under Hawaii’s statewide law (Act 104, which bans oxybenzone and octinoxate) it is allowed. In Maui County (Maui, Molokaʻi, Lānaʻi), which allows only mineral sunscreens, it is not allowed because it contains avobenzone, octisalate and octocrylene, and Maui’s rule covers using it there, not just selling it. In Hawaiʻi County (the Big Island), which has a mineral-only rule for sales, it is not allowed. Oʻahu and Kauaʻi have no county rule, so only the statewide law applies there. ### Where is Australian Gold SPF 30 Spray Gel Bronzer not allowed? Maui County: it contains avobenzone, octisalate and octocrylene, which are not allowed there. Hawaiʻi County (Big Island): it contains avobenzone, octisalate and octocrylene, which are not allowed there. The U.S. Virgin Islands: it contains octocrylene, which is not allowed there. Palau: it contains octocrylene, avobenzone, octisalate and phenoxyethanol, which are not allowed there. Guam: it contains octocrylene, which is not allowed there. ### Does Australian Gold SPF 30 Spray Gel Bronzer contain oxybenzone? Its published active ingredients don’t include oxybenzone or octinoxate, but part of its ingredient data is missing or unidentified, so check the label. ### Is Australian Gold SPF 30 Spray Gel Bronzer a mineral or chemical sunscreen? Chemical. Its UV filters are avobenzone 2%, octisalate 5% and octocrylene 2%. ### Is Australian Gold SPF 30 Spray Gel Bronzer water resistant? Yes, for up to 80 minutes of swimming or sweating, according to its label. Reapply after 80 minutes in the water, immediately after towel drying, and at least every 2 hours. ### What is the UPC for Australian Gold SPF 30 Spray Gel Bronzer? The UPC barcode is 054402330821.
