Scout's take

Organic UV filter banned in Hawaii (2021) for documented coral-reef bleaching and bioaccumulation, and flagged by the FDA in 2019 as needing additional safety data. Multiple animal studies show estrogenic activity and antithyroid effects. EWG hazard rating of 6. Cleaner sunscreens use zinc oxide alone.
