I ordered this sunscreen because it was rated as safe by the Environmental Working Group. When I received it, I was horrified to find that it contains 6% oxybenzone AND octinoxate 7.2%. EWG lists both of these ingredients as hazardous. For some reason, these ingredients are not listed on the EWG web page, but they are listed as active ingredients on tube. If EWG knew of these ingredients, I don't think the sunscreen would receive the safe rating they give.

I also bought this product based upon the EWG rating and, having just received it today, was likewise horrified to find that it contains oxybenzone, vitamin A, as well as a litany of other ingredients which I was specifically trying to avoid, especially when paying a premium price. Obviously, they changed their formulation since EWG purchased theirs. There are better options, like Vanicream and Purple Prairie, which I also ordered.

I just bought this in a store and it is labeled on the pkg "Oxybenzone and Paraben-Free". It does have Titanium Dioxide and Zinc Oxide. The exp date is 3-13, so maybe you got an old formula. I can't rate its effectiveness, though, haven't tried it yet.

I bought this because it was recommended on the EWG site. Mine states that it is Oxybenzone and Paraben-Free.

I like it better than California Baby as it doesn't have an odor.

It is pretty thick which makes it a bit harder to spread. The kids don't mind the consistency though so that is a big plus.

I wish it was a little less expensive. Times are tough and sunscreen is important but shouldn't break the bank.

Bought this at Sprouts today based on EWG review and sure enough a major ingredient is oxybenzone. Oxybenzone isn't even mentioned on the EWG review. Back to Sprouts tomorrow.
