Protection + Vitamins Sunscreen Lotion vs Daily Sun Serum SPF 30 Mineral Sunscreen: which is safer?

Where these two actually differ

• We flag Fragrance allergens and sensitizers, Chemical UV filter photostability and skin absorption, Preservative contact sensitivity and Waterproof polymer coating and skin occlusion on the Banana Boat and not on the Derma E.
• We flag 1,4-dioxane (non-intentional contaminant from surfactants/emulsifiers) and Fragrance allergens (if fragrance is present) on the Derma E and not on the Banana Boat.
• The Banana Boat is Oil-in-water emulsion lotion with waterproof polymer where the Derma E is Mineral sunscreen, zinc oxide base, which is most of the difference in these two grades.
• The gap is 25 points, wide enough that this is not a close call, and the Derma E is the one to buy.
• We are less certain about the Banana Boat grade, at 45% confidence against 88%, because it discloses less.
