Highlighted ingredients are regulated somewhere; red ones are restricted in at least one location we track. Dotted ones are listed below.
Fragrance allergens, essential oils and alcohol
None of the 80 fragrance allergens on the EU list appear on this partial ingredient list, 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). They can cause skin reactions in people who are sensitized; they don’t affect whether a sunscreen is legal anywhere we track.
Note: Not sold on the brand site. Ingredients from the Amazon listing (shown as currently unavailable on 2026-09-23), which says 'Other ingredients include:', so the inactive list may be incomplete and label order is unconfirmed. Broad spectrum is from the Amazon title. No brand-hosted image, so imageUrl is null.
Common questions about MANDA Organic Sun Creme SPF 50
Is MANDA Organic Sun Creme SPF 50 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, Maui County, Hawaiʻi County (Big Island), the U.S. Virgin Islands, Aruba, Guam and the Northern Mariana Islands. We can’t confirm it for Palau and Thailand's national parks because part of its ingredient data is missing or unidentified. Its only UV filters are minerals, which every law we track permits.
Is MANDA Organic Sun Creme 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 MANDA Organic Sun Creme SPF 50 contain oxybenzone?
Its published active ingredients don’t include oxybenzone or octinoxate, but part of its ingredient data is missing or unidentified, so check the label.
Is MANDA Organic Sun Creme SPF 50 a mineral or chemical sunscreen?
Mineral. Its UV filter is zinc oxide 23%.
Is the zinc oxide in MANDA Organic Sun Creme SPF 50 non-nano?
The brand labels its mineral filter as non-nano. Particle size is a brand claim: US sunscreen labels aren’t required to state it, and no sunscreen law we track regulates it.
