What we checked on Amazon, per product: Ultra Violette Unblock Screen SPF 50: The one Amazon listing we found is sold by a reseller under the brand name "Generic," not by Ultra Violette, so we do not link it. Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Daily Face Sunscreen SPF 70: On Amazon, sold by Amazon.com: "Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Daily Face Sunscreen SPF 70 with BEMT, 1.4 Fl. Oz" (Cloud-Tech carton). Older Ultra Sheer SPF 70 listings are different formulas without bemotrizinol.

Older Clear Face listings are different formulas. Ultra Violette Fave Screen SPF 50: No Amazon listing found for Fave Screen. Other Ultra Violette products on Amazon are sold by third-party resellers, not the brand. Juyasuyon Invisible Sunscreen stick: No Amazon listing found for this brand.
01b / Buy today
Want strong UVA protection you can buy today?
Only two bemotrizinol sunscreens are on Amazon so far. These sunscreens use the two long-UVA filters US sunscreens already had, avobenzone and zinc oxide. We recommend them on other pages of this site.
-
Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry-Touch Sunscreen SPF 70
It has 3% avobenzone, a long-UVA filter, kept stable by octocrylene and octisalate. That is the same UVA setup as La Roche-Posay Anthelios Melt-In Milk, for less money. See our Anthelios dupe report.
-
Blue Lizard Sensitive Mineral Sunscreen SPF 50
It has 10% zinc oxide, the mineral filter that covers long UVA. It is the stronger of the two mineral picks in our zinc oxide guide. See our zinc oxide guide.

02 / What changed
What FDA did, and when
- June 9, 2026: FDA announced it added bemotrizinol to the US list of allowed sunscreen ingredients. FDA calls it the first new sunscreen active ingredient added since the late 1990s. FDA press release
- Up to 6%. The order allows bemotrizinol at up to 6%, in a product with an SPF of at least 2. FDA final order OTC000039
- August 9, 2026: the order took effect. The first US labels with bemotrizinol reached DailyMed the next day.
- 18 months of exclusivity. The order says only DSM, the company that asked for it, and its licensees may sell products under it for 18 months after it takes effect. That is one reason the list is still short.
- Europe allows up to 10%. In the EU it is listed as bis-ethylhexyloxyphenol methoxyphenyl triazine (Annex VI, entry 25). Source: EU CosIng database.
03 / How we counted
20 DailyMed labels mention bemotrizinol. We count 5.
We counted a label only if all three were true: (1) DailyMed lists it as an "OTC Monograph Drug" under the US sunscreen monograph (M020); (2) it was published on or after June 9, 2026; and (3) its bemotrizinol is 6% or less.
We left out 15: 4 marked "export only," 2 listed as "unapproved drug other," and 9 filed between 2010 and 2020, years before FDA allowed bemotrizinol in US sunscreens. Being left out here does not mean a product is unsafe. It means it is not a US label under the new rule.

Amazon titles them "with BEMT." We searched Amazon for each of the five products by name. We did not find the others sold by their brands.

- Yes, since this summer. FDA added bemotrizinol to the US list of allowed sunscreen ingredients, at up to 6%. FDA announced it on June 9, 2026, and the order took effect on August 9, 2026. The first US labels with it appeared in DailyMed in August 2026.
- What about the "Bemotrizinol Sunscreen" listings on Amazon?
- On September 29, 2026, 6 of the top 10 Amazon results for "bemotrizinol sunscreen" were sold under brand names that do not appear on any DailyMed bemotrizinol label. We could not match them to a US drug label, so we do not link them.

- Do Garnier Ombrelle or Kiehl's sunscreens with bemotrizinol count?
- Not here. DailyMed lists 4 L'Oréal labels with bemotrizinol (three Garnier Ombrelle, one Kiehl's), but each one is marked "export only," which means it is made for sale outside the US.
