SUSTAINABILITY
Rating:
Low
- Homosalate:
This UVB filter has limited research on its environmental impacts, though it is
generally considered non-biodegradable. Studies suggest that it may accumulate
in aquatic environments, so more sustainable alternatives may be preferable for
reef-safe products.
- Octocrylene:
This commonly used UV filter is also non-biodegradable and can persist in
marine environments. It has been shown to bioaccumulate in marine life,
potentially impacting coral reefs and fish. Sustainable formulations tend to
avoid this ingredient in favor of more reef-friendly options.
- Oxybenzone:
A common UV filter, but it is highly controversial due to its harmful effects
on coral reefs, marine life, and water ecosystems. Many regions, including
Hawaii and parts of the Caribbean, have restricted its use. It is
non-biodegradable and has known ecological toxicity.
- Octyl
Salicylate: While it doesn’t have the same
level of toxicity concerns as oxybenzone, its full environmental impact is
still being studied. It's biodegradable, but alternative UV filters may be more
ecologically sound.
- Butyl
Methoxydibenzoylmethane (Avobenzone): This UVA filter is generally
considered safe for human use but not highly stable or biodegradable in the
environment. It can break down in water, forming potentially harmful
byproducts, and may not be the most sustainable choice.
- Ethanol:
Ethanol can be produced from renewable sources like sugarcane or corn, making
it a potentially sustainable solvent. However, the sustainability depends on
how it's sourced—some production processes have significant water and energy
demands. Sustainable ethanol production often involves certified organic
sources or low-water-impact farming practices.
