Complies with Hawaiian law
The US state of Hawaii has banned the use of certain chemical substances in sunscreens as of 1 January 2021. The Hawaiian law covers chemical substances such as oxybenzone and octinoxate, which are commonly found in sun creams but are likely to harm or even destroy coral reefs.Our formulas comply with these regulations.
Precautions for use
Apply generously and evenly before sun exposure and re-apply frequently, at least every 2 hours. Avoid sun exposure during peak sun hours. Sunburns are dangerous, especially for children. Do not expose babies aged 6 months and under to the sun.
Do not use on children under 6 months.
Avoid direct contact with clothing.
Our Commitment to Quality
Decathlon goes further than international cosmetics regulations and has prohibited more than 1000 controversial substances from being used in our products, even if they are allowed on the market. Such substances include endocrine disruptors and certain preservatives.
We have conducted studies through an independent analysis laboratory that confirmed that our mineral filters stay on the surface of the skin without penetrating it.
White sheen
Mineral filters work by creating a protective barrier on the skin, hence the white sheen. They are not designed to penetrate the skin.
