Dotted ones are listed below. Fragrance allergens, essential oils and alcohol - **Drying alcohol:** SD alcohol 40-B (53.2% v/v) - **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: coppertone.com product pages carry no Drug Facts (no ingredient lists), so the actives and inactive list (label order) were taken from the manufacturer's FDA-filed label on DailyMed. FDA SPL set ID e1a9a831-a0b9-17ba-e053-2a95a90a3fa7 (label version effective 2025-12-31). Contains oxybenzone and octinoxate. The filed principal display panel text has no "Broad Spectrum" or "Water Resistant" claim (it says "Resists Sweat + Heat + Water"), so broadSpectrum is recorded as false; water resistance is taken from the Directions ("reapply after 80 minutes of swimming or sweating"). No brand-hosted product image found for this exact item. ## Common questions about Coppertone Sport Sunscreen Spray SPF 100 ### Is Coppertone Sport Sunscreen Spray SPF 100 reef safe? “Reef safe” isn’t a regulated label claim, so we answer by law instead. It is not allowed in any of the 9 places with a sunscreen law that we track. ### Is Coppertone Sport Sunscreen Spray SPF 100 legal in Hawaii? Under Hawaii’s statewide law (Act 104, which bans oxybenzone and octinoxate) it is not allowed because it contains oxybenzone and octinoxate. In Maui County (Maui, Molokaʻi, Lānaʻi), which allows only mineral sunscreens, it is not allowed because it contains avobenzone, homosalate, octinoxate, octisalate, octocrylene and oxybenzone, 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 Coppertone Sport Sunscreen Spray SPF 100 not allowed?
