Hawaii law compliance

The State of Hawaii has decided to ban the use of some chemical substances in sun creams by passing the Hawaii law, in force since 1 January 2021. This law lists chemical substances such as oxybenzone and octinoxate that are often found in sun creams, which are likely to weaken or destroy coral. Our formulas comply with this requirement.
