Sun Smart, Ocean Safe


We can’t sugarcoat it: Your trusty SPF is killing our cor-
al reefs. Every time you step into an ocean wearing tra-
ditional sunscreen, two main UV-filtering ingredients—
oxybenzone and octinoxate —wash off into the water
and bleach the coral ecosystem. But now we’re wiser,
with Hawaii passing a bill that will prohibit sunscreens
with oxybenzone and octinoxate by 2021, and forward-
thinking brands making eco-friendly alternatives. After
testing a lineup of new options, we’d happily slather on
any of these four sunscreens before diving in.
