Best Sunscreens — Mineral Filters, No Oxybenzone
The FDA flagged oxybenzone, octinoxate, and four other chemical UV filters for systemic absorption well above the 0.5 ng/mL safety threshold in 2020. Mineral sunscreens using zinc oxide or titanium dioxide sit on the skin and reflect UV without the endocrine questions. Our top scorers are broad-spectrum, reef-safe, and free of the six flagged filters.
What to look for
- Zinc oxide or titanium dioxide as the active UV filter
- No oxybenzone, octinoxate, homosalate, avobenzone, octisalate, or octocrylene
- Broad-spectrum (UVA + UVB) at SPF 30 or higher
- No retinyl palmitate (photoreactive in sunlight)
- Fragrance-free — sun-exposed skin inflames easily
