The classic beach lotion runs on four chemical filters — avobenzone 3%, homosalate 5%, octisalate 3%, octocrylene 10% — plus added fragrance (the signature banana scent). It’s oxybenzone- and octinoxate-free, and the brand publishes the full list. The added fragrance and the filters’ pending-FDA-data status account for the deductions.

!Caution
The inactive list includes ‘Fragrance’, an umbrella term for undisclosed scent chemicals. EWG’s Skin Deep entry for fragrance currently scores it 8 out of 10, citing irritation and allergy potential — fragrance is the most common cause of cosmetic contact allergy.
