Highlighted ingredients are regulated somewhere; red ones are restricted in at least one location we track. Dotted ones are listed below.

Fragrance allergens, essential oils and alcohol

None of the 80 fragrance allergens on the EU list appear on this label, and it lists no fragrance, essential oil or drying alcohol.

The EU requires these allergens to be named on cosmetic labels above 0.001% in leave-on products ([Regulation 1223/2009, Annex III](https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/?uri=CELEX:02009R1223-20250501)). They can cause skin reactions in people who are sensitized; they don’t affect whether a sunscreen is legal anywhere we track.

Note: bananaboat.com has no product pages (it links shoppers to Target, Walmart and Amazon), so the Drug Facts (actives and inactive list in label order) were taken from the manufacturer's FDA-filed label on DailyMed; no brand-hosted product image available. FDA SPL set ID 05bbe530-df26-e598-e063-6394a90a0c59 (label version effective 2023-10-03).

Common questions about Banana Boat Baby Mineral Sunscreen Stick SPF 50

Is Banana Boat Baby Mineral Sunscreen Stick SPF 50 reef safe?

“Reef safe” isn’t a regulated label claim, so we answer by law instead. It meets every sunscreen law we track, including the mineral-only rules in Maui County, Hawaiʻi County (Big Island) and Palau. Its only UV filters are minerals, which every law we track permits.

Is Banana Boat Baby Mineral Sunscreen Stick SPF 50 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 allowed. In Hawaiʻi County (the Big Island), which has a mineral-only rule for sales, it is allowed. Oʻahu and Kauaʻi have no county rule, so only the statewide law applies there.

Does Banana Boat Baby Mineral Sunscreen Stick SPF 50 contain oxybenzone?

No. It contains neither oxybenzone nor octinoxate, the two chemicals banned under Hawaii’s statewide law.

Is Banana Boat Baby Mineral Sunscreen Stick SPF 50 a mineral or chemical sunscreen?

Mineral. Its UV filter is zinc oxide 23.8%.

Is the zinc oxide in Banana Boat Baby Mineral Sunscreen Stick SPF 50 non-nano?

Its Drug Facts ingredient list doesn’t state particle size, and US labels aren’t required to. Many brands make non-nano claims elsewhere on the pack or website. No sunscreen law we track regulates nano particles.

Is Banana Boat Baby Mineral Sunscreen Stick SPF 50 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 NDC and UPC for Banana Boat Baby Mineral Sunscreen Stick SPF 50?

Banana Boat Baby Mineral Sunscreen Stick SPF 50 is listed with the FDA under National Drug Code 63354-164, and its UPC barcode is 079656140460. The NDC identifies this sunscreen on its FDA drug label (DailyMed); package sizes carry longer package NDCs.
