The Banana Boat Simply Protect sunscreen line was recently shared, introducing a new range of sun care products made with 25% fewer ingredients than some of Banana Boat's previously released products. The simplified sun care collection is free from oxybenzone, parabens and is formulated without added oils or fragrances. The family-friendly range boasts everything from sport and baby to kids formulas, in a range of product formats such as sprays and lotions.
The new formulas provide SPF 50+ broad spectrum UVA/UVB protection, plus they are sweat- and water-resistant for up to 80 minutes. Banana Boat also notes that "we've tested our products to stay on in seven real-life conditions—sun, pool water, ocean water, wind, sweat, sand and extreme heat up to 100 degrees."
