Common questions about Blue Lizard Sheer Face Mineral SPF 50 Sunscreen Lotion Is Blue Lizard Sheer Face Mineral SPF 50 Sunscreen Lotion 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 Blue Lizard Sheer Face Mineral SPF 50 Sunscreen Lotion 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 Blue Lizard Sheer Face Mineral SPF 50 Sunscreen Lotion contain oxybenzone? No. It contains neither oxybenzone nor octinoxate, the two chemicals banned under Hawaii’s statewide law. Is Blue Lizard Sheer Face Mineral SPF 50 Sunscreen Lotion a mineral or chemical sunscreen? Mineral. Its UV filters are titanium dioxide 8% and zinc oxide 10%. Is the zinc oxide in Blue Lizard Sheer Face Mineral SPF 50 Sunscreen Lotion 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 Blue Lizard Sheer Face Mineral SPF 50 Sunscreen Lotion 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.
