- ♲ We know recycling can be confusing: different systems depending on your location, unclear labeling, and inaccurate claims do not make it easy.
- ♲ This is why Babo Botanicals has joined How2Recycle, a coalition of brands working to simplify recycling of their products. Developed by the Sustainable Packaging Coalition, the “How2Recycle” program evaluates each package and provides a label that clearly indicates if each part of a product is widely recyclable or not. Since 2021, all new packaging of our products include the How2Recycle information.
- ♲ While our mono-material tubes are made of recyclable polypropylene, they carry the non-recyclable label as recycling centers need more brands to transition to mono-material tubes for tubes to become widely recyclable.
- ♲ Check out our seal on the left for recycling information for this product, you can find this seal on the product label as well

Is this sunscreen reef-safe?
Our sunscreens are compliant with Hawaii’s and other regional regulations on coral reef and marine environment. They do not contain the chemical ingredients banned in those areas like Oxybenzone or Octinoxate. However, “Reef-Safe” is an unregulated statement. While our products technically “qualify”, you can learn more on here about why we have decided to no longer make this statement.
-
Is this sunscreen non-nano?
Our sunscreens are non-nano by the definition of the European regulation (EC) No 1223/2009. However “Non-Nano” is an unregulated statement in the Unites States, which is why we have decided to no longer make this statement. Our sunscreens are independently tested for effectiveness and safety under dermatological and pediatric supervision. They are suitable for all ages, from babies to adults.

What does EWG VERIFIED™ sunscreen mean?
EWG VERIFIED™ products are certified as meeting the Environmental Working Group's strict standard for ingredient safety, transparency and product efficacy. The EWG VERIFIED™ program is a registered trademark licensing program that follows a published set of health standards developed by EWG's research team. Verification is more stringent and rigorous than the standards for a positive rating in the EWG Guide to Sunscreens – though a sunscreen must have a green rating in their guide to even be considered for verification.
-
Is this sunscreen intended for face or body?
Our Sheer Mineral Sunscreen Lotion SPF50 can be used on both face and body.
-
Is this sunscreen fragrance-free?
Yes all of our sunscreens are fragrance free. If you can, it is best to avoid fragrances in sunscreen as they can irritate the skin and cause breakouts with sun exposure.
