Supergoopies SPF Bestsellers Kit
Lower concern; mineral formulas rarely contain PFAS.
The kit relies on mineral (zinc oxide, titanium dioxide) sunscreen, which typically bypasses PFAS. Supergoop doesn't publish PFAS statements.

What Supergoopies SPF Bestsellers Kit is made of, ingredients and materials
Supergoop Bestsellers Kit is a mineral sunscreen formulation based on zinc oxide and/or titanium dioxide as active UV blockers, combined with emollients (likely silicones, oils, glycerin) and cosmetic-grade binders. Mineral sunscreens work by sitting on skin and reflecting UV rather than absorbing it, which is why they generally avoid the synthetic organic filter chemistry that raises systemic absorption concerns. This product avoids oxybenzone, octinoxate, and other chemical absorbers linked to hormone disruption studies.
What’s concerning
Category baseline
The starting point for this type of product, before anything specific to this product is counted.
No PFAS disclosure
No public statement from the brand about PFAS in this product.
Fragrance allergens and undisclosed fragrance chemicals
Product listing does not specify if fragrance is present or if it is disclosed by component. Many Supergoop sunscreens include fragrance; complete fragrance ingredient sourcing is not publicly available, limiting allergen assessment.
Parabens
Emulsified sunscreen formulas require preservatives; Supergoop does not publicly list preservative strategy. Specific product ingredients would need to be cross-checked against the full ingredient list for known irritants.
Source, FDA ↗What’s reassuring
Base material not linked to PFAS
The main material recorded for this product is not one associated with PFAS.
Heavy metals
Zinc oxide and titanium dioxide are regulated mineral ingredients approved by FDA. No established contamination record specific to Supergoop products; titanium dioxide underwent safety review in 2022 and remains approved for topical use in the US.
Source, FDA ↗Formaldehyde / VOCs
No public record of formaldehyde donors (DMDM hydantoin, imidazolidinyl urea) in Supergoop formulations, but this would require verification of the full ingredient list not provided in this assessment.
Source, ATSDR ↗Talc contamination
Mineral sunscreens do not typically use talc, and Supergoop does not advertise talc-containing formulas. This hazard is not applicable to this product category.
How is this PFAS grade calculated?
The brand's record and disclosure
Supergoop has no public record of major product recalls or safety violations as of available data. However, the brand has not published ingredient transparency reports, PFAS testing commitments, or third-party certifications (e.g., EWG Verified, NSF). This silence is typical of mid-market beauty brands but limits independent verification of formulation claims. Sunscreen is a regulated OTC drug category in the US, so FDA compliance is required but does not guarantee disclosure beyond regulatory minimums.
How it compares in its category
Mineral sunscreens are linked to lower systemic chemical exposure concerns than chemical absorbers, though they often leave a white cast and may feel thicker on skin. Supergoop's kit positions itself as a lifestyle product (multiple formats) rather than a clinical or hypoallergenic line; it sits in the mainstream beauty tier rather than dermatologist-recommended or clean beauty tiers that typically offer more disclosure. Compared to brands like Blue Lizard or EltaMD, Supergoop offers less transparency but comparable or lower price point.
If you buy it
Apply generously and reapply every 2 hours or after water exposure; mineral sunscreens can pill or clump if applied too thinly. Store in cool, dry conditions; sunscreen does not have a strict expiration if kept sealed, but opened containers should be replaced annually. Discontinue immediately if any irritation occurs; zinc oxide and titanium dioxide are generally non-irritating but individual sensitivities vary. Patch test first if you have very sensitive skin.
