California AB1744 prohibits sunscreen products from claiming to be "reef safe" or similar terms unless they are free of specific chemical ultraviolet.

California AB1744 makes it illegal to advertise sunscreen products as "reef safe," "ocean safe," or similar terms unless the product does not contain certain chemical ultraviolet filters. These include Avobenzone, Homosalate, Octinoxate, Octisalate, Octocrylene, and Oxybenzone. The law applies to any sunscreen product regulated by the FDA, such as lotions, sprays, sticks, gels, and solids. This measure aims to prevent misleading claims that could harm marine ecosystems.
