Common questions about Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry-Touch Max SPF 100+ Body Sunscreen Is Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry-Touch Max SPF 100+ Body Sunscreen 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, Aruba, the Northern Mariana Islands and Thailand's national parks, but not in Maui County, Hawaiʻi County (Big Island), the U.S. Virgin Islands, Palau and Guam. Labels like “Hawaii Act 104 compliant” only mean a product has no oxybenzone or octinoxate; they don’t make a chemical sunscreen legal on Maui or the Big Island. Is Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry-Touch Max SPF 100+ Body Sunscreen 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 not allowed because it contains avobenzone, homosalate, octisalate and octocrylene, 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 Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry-Touch Max SPF 100+ Body Sunscreen not allowed? Maui County: it contains avobenzone, homosalate, octisalate and octocrylene, which are not allowed there. Hawaiʻi County (Big Island): it contains avobenzone, homosalate, octisalate and octocrylene, which are not allowed there. The U.S. Virgin Islands: it contains octocrylene, which is not allowed there. Palau: it contains octocrylene, avobenzone, homosalate, octisalate and phenoxyethanol, which are not allowed there. Guam: it contains octocrylene, which is not allowed there. Does Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry-Touch Max SPF 100+ Body Sunscreen contain oxybenzone? No. It contains neither oxybenzone nor octinoxate, the two chemicals banned under Hawaii’s statewide law. Being oxybenzone-free does not make it mineral: it still uses chemical UV filters. Is Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry-Touch Max SPF 100+ Body Sunscreen a mineral or chemical sunscreen? Chemical. Its UV filters are avobenzone 3%, homosalate 15%, octisalate 5% and octocrylene 10%. What is the NDC and UPC for Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry-Touch Max SPF 100+ Body Sunscreen?
