Highlighted ingredients are regulated somewhere; red ones are restricted in at least one location we track. Dotted ones are listed below.

Fragrance allergens, essential oils and alcohol

None of the 80 fragrance allergens on the EU list appear on this label, and it lists no fragrance, essential oil or drying alcohol.

The EU requires these allergens to be named on cosmetic labels above 0.001% in leave-on products (Regulation 1223/2009, Annex III). They can cause skin reactions in people who are sensitized; they don’t affect whether a sunscreen is legal anywhere we track.

Note: Asterisks marking certified-organic ingredients on the brand page were removed.

Common questions about Raw Elements Face Stick SPF 30

Is Raw Elements Face Stick SPF 30 reef safe?

“Reef safe” isn’t a regulated label claim, so we answer by law instead. It meets every sunscreen law we track, including the mineral-only rules in Maui County, Hawaiʻi County (Big Island) and Palau. Its only UV filters are minerals, which every law we track permits.

Is Raw Elements Face Stick SPF 30 legal in Hawaii?

Under Hawaii’s statewide law (Act 104, which bans oxybenzone and octinoxate) it is allowed. In Maui County (Maui, Molokaʻi, Lānaʻi), which allows only mineral sunscreens, it is allowed. In Hawaiʻi County (the Big Island), which has a mineral-only rule for sales, it is allowed. Oʻahu and Kauaʻi have no county rule, so only the statewide law applies there.

Does Raw Elements Face Stick SPF 30 contain oxybenzone?

No. It contains neither oxybenzone nor octinoxate, the two chemicals banned under Hawaii’s statewide law.

Is Raw Elements Face Stick SPF 30 a mineral or chemical sunscreen?

Mineral. Its UV filter is zinc oxide 22.75%.

Is the zinc oxide in Raw Elements Face Stick SPF 30 non-nano?

The brand labels its mineral filter as non-nano. Particle size is a brand claim: US sunscreen labels aren’t required to state it, and no sunscreen law we track regulates it.

Is Raw Elements Face Stick SPF 30 water resistant?

Yes, for up to 80 minutes of swimming or sweating, according to its label. Reapply after 80 minutes in the water, immediately after towel drying, and at least every 2 hours.

What is the NDC and UPC for Raw Elements Face Stick SPF 30?

Raw Elements Face Stick SPF 30 is listed with the FDA under National Drug Code 70680-302, and its UPC barcode is 858855002010. The NDC identifies this sunscreen on its FDA drug label (DailyMed); package sizes carry longer package NDCs.
