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. ## Common questions about EltaMD UV Daily Tinted Broad Spectrum SPF 40 ### Is EltaMD UV Daily Tinted Broad Spectrum SPF 40 reef safe? “Reef safe” isn’t a regulated label claim, so we answer by law instead. It is allowed under the sunscreen laws of Aruba, but not in Hawaii statewide, Maui County, Hawaiʻi County (Big Island), the U.S. Virgin Islands, Palau, Guam, the Northern Mariana Islands and Thailand's national parks. ### Is EltaMD UV Daily Tinted Broad Spectrum SPF 40 legal in Hawaii? Under Hawaii’s statewide law (Act 104, which bans oxybenzone and octinoxate) it is not allowed because it contains octinoxate. In Maui County (Maui, Molokaʻi, Lānaʻi), which allows only mineral sunscreens, it is not allowed because it contains octinoxate, 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 EltaMD UV Daily Tinted Broad Spectrum SPF 40 not allowed? Hawaii statewide: it contains octinoxate, which is not allowed there. Maui County: it contains octinoxate, which is not allowed there. Hawaiʻi County (Big Island): it contains octinoxate, which is not allowed there. The U.S. Virgin Islands: it contains octinoxate, which is not allowed there. Palau: it contains octinoxate and phenoxyethanol, which are not allowed there. Guam: it contains octinoxate, which is not allowed there. The Northern Mariana Islands: it contains octinoxate, which is not allowed there. Thailand's national parks: it contains octinoxate, which is not allowed there. ### Does EltaMD UV Daily Tinted Broad Spectrum SPF 40 contain oxybenzone? Yes. It contains octinoxate 7.5%. Oxybenzone and octinoxate are banned in Hawaii and most other places with a sunscreen law. ### Is EltaMD UV Daily Tinted Broad Spectrum SPF 40 a mineral or chemical sunscreen? Both. It combines mineral (zinc oxide 9%) and chemical (octinoxate 7.5%) UV filters, so it does not meet mineral-only rules. ### Is the zinc oxide in EltaMD UV Daily Tinted Broad Spectrum SPF 40 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 EltaMD UV Daily Tinted Broad Spectrum SPF 40 water resistant? No. It makes no water-resistance claim, so it isn’t meant for swimming or heavy sweating. Use a water-resistant sunscreen for time in the water. ### What is the NDC and UPC for EltaMD UV Daily Tinted Broad Spectrum SPF 40? EltaMD UV Daily Tinted Broad Spectrum SPF 40 is listed with the FDA under National Drug Code 72043-6806, and its UPC barcode is 390205022694.
