What this means for claims
- We state only: SPF 50 broad spectrum (UVA/UVB).
- No water or sweat resistance, dermatological testing, test certificates, third-party seals or endorsements are claimed.
- Sunscreen is a cosmetic. We make no medical claims.
Formulation commitments
- Aim: formulating without oxybenzone and octinoxate.
- Aim: a light, non-greasy finish that rubs in clearly on darker skin types.
- Aim: packaging free of PVC and declared free of BPA and listed phthalates.
- Commitment: no claim is printed or published until the matching test report is held.
Formulation aims are confirmed only once the final INCI list and test reports are in hand.
