Maui County: mineral-only sunscreen

Since October 1, 2022, Maui County bans using, selling or distributing any sunscreen that is not mineral-based, on Maui, Lānaʻi and Molokaʻi, unless prescribed by a licensed health care provider.

• Allowed: mineral sunscreens with zinc oxide or titanium dioxide as the active ingredients.
• The rule covers use as well as sale, so it applies to sunscreen you bring with you.
