Fragrance allergens, essential oils and alcohol

-   **Fragrance:** listed as “Fragrance”. US labels don’t have to name the allergens inside a fragrance, so there may be more than this list shows.

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 ab8623e2-0539-3f8f-e053-2a95a90a39d5 (label version effective 2023-11-09). Pump spray oil.

## Common questions about Banana Boat Deep Tanning Spray Oil Sunscreen SPF 4

### Is Banana Boat Deep Tanning Spray Oil Sunscreen SPF 4 reef safe?

“Reef safe” isn’t a regulated label claim, so we answer by law instead. It is allowed under the sunscreen laws of Hawaii statewide, the U.S. Virgin Islands, Aruba, Guam, the Northern Mariana Islands and Thailand's national parks, but not in Maui County, Hawaiʻi County (Big Island) and Palau. 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 Banana Boat Deep Tanning Spray Oil Sunscreen SPF 4 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 and octisalate, 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 Banana Boat Deep Tanning Spray Oil Sunscreen SPF 4 not allowed?

Maui County: it contains avobenzone and octisalate, which are not allowed there. Hawaiʻi County (Big Island): it contains avobenzone and octisalate, which are not allowed there. Palau: it contains avobenzone and octisalate, which are not allowed there.

### Does Banana Boat Deep Tanning Spray Oil Sunscreen SPF 4 contain oxybenzone?

No. It contains neither oxybenzone nor octinoxate, the two chemicals banned under Hawaii’s statewide law. Being oxybenzone-free does not make it mineral: it still uses chemical UV filters.

### Is Banana Boat Deep Tanning Spray Oil Sunscreen SPF 4 a mineral or chemical sunscreen?

Chemical. Its UV filters are avobenzone 0.5% and octisalate 4%.

### Is Banana Boat Deep Tanning Spray Oil Sunscreen SPF 4 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 Deep Tanning Spray Oil Sunscreen SPF 4?

Banana Boat Deep Tanning Spray Oil Sunscreen SPF 4 is listed with the FDA under National Drug Code 63354-649, and its UPC barcode is 079656000252. The NDC identifies this sunscreen on its FDA drug label (DailyMed); package sizes carry longer package NDCs.
