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 Coppertone WaterBABIES Pure & Simple Mineral Sunscreen Spray 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 Coppertone WaterBABIES Pure & Simple Mineral Sunscreen Spray SPF 50 contain oxybenzone? No. It contains neither oxybenzone nor octinoxate, the two chemicals banned under Hawaii’s statewide law. ### Is Coppertone WaterBABIES Pure & Simple Mineral Sunscreen Spray SPF 50 a mineral or chemical sunscreen? Mineral. Its UV filter is zinc oxide 24.08%. ### Is the zinc oxide in Coppertone WaterBABIES Pure & Simple Mineral Sunscreen Spray 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 Coppertone WaterBABIES Pure & Simple Mineral Sunscreen Spray 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 for Coppertone WaterBABIES Pure & Simple Mineral Sunscreen Spray SPF 50? Coppertone WaterBABIES Pure & Simple Mineral Sunscreen Spray SPF 50 is listed with the FDA under National Drug Code 66800-2880.
