Common questions

Is Badger Adventure Mineral Sunscreen Cream SPF 50 plastic tube healthy?

Badger Adventure Mineral Sunscreen Cream SPF 50 plastic tube scores 20/100 on Tallow — our avoid band. That number comes from what is on the label: the ingredients, how processed it is, and what it is packaged in, plus lab results from its product family, Badger Mineral Sunscreen Cream SPF 50. It is not a verdict on your diet — Tallow does not weigh calories, portion size or how often you eat it, so a high score means the ingredients are clean, not that the food is unlimited.

What is in Badger Adventure Mineral Sunscreen Cream SPF 50 plastic tube?

Badger Adventure Mineral Sunscreen Cream SPF 50 plastic tube lists 4 ingredients, starting with Tocopherol, Non-nano Zinc Oxide, Helianthus Annuus Seed Oil and Cera Alba. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

Does Badger Adventure Mineral Sunscreen Cream SPF 50 plastic tube contain seed oils?

No. Nothing in Badger Adventure Mineral Sunscreen Cream SPF 50 plastic tube’s ingredient list matches a seed oil — canola, soybean, corn, cottonseed, grapeseed, sunflower, safflower, rice bran or peanut oil, or an unspecified "vegetable oil".

How processed is Badger Adventure Mineral Sunscreen Cream SPF 50 plastic tube?

Badger Adventure Mineral Sunscreen Cream SPF 50 plastic tube has no NOVA group. Tallow works NOVA out from the ingredient list, and it does not apply to supplements or non-food products; a food whose ingredients are not all classified yet stays unknown instead of being guessed. Either way the processing axis scores it neutrally.

How does Badger Adventure Mineral Sunscreen Cream SPF 50 plastic tube compare to other sunscreen?

Is Badger Adventure Mineral Sunscreen Cream SPF 50 plastic tube organic?

Yes. Badger Adventure Mineral Sunscreen Cream SPF 50 plastic tube carries USDA Organic certification, which is worth +5 points in the score above.

Has Badger Adventure Mineral Sunscreen Cream SPF 50 plastic tube been lab tested?

This product is scored with the worst result for each contaminant across those tests. Those results are in the family's Contaminants section above; its own results may differ.

Does Badger Adventure Mineral Sunscreen Cream SPF 50 plastic tube contain heavy metals?
