Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate, Ethylhexyl Salicylate. Chemical sunscreen filter with limited pregnancy data: Not known to harm a pregnancy but not well studied, and absorbed into the bloodstream in FDA studies; mineral filters (zinc oxide, titanium dioxide) stay on the skin and are a lower-absorption choice (MotherToBaby, Matta et al. 2020).

Yes. Some By Mi V10 Hyal Lip Sun Protector contains fragrance, niacinamide, which can bother sensitive skin.

Is it OK for kids and teens?
Kids (ages 3–11)
Not for kids
- Retinoid (vitamin A) (Retinyl Palmitate): An anti-aging and acne active children's skin doesn't need; dermatologists see red, itchy rashes in kids who use retinoids, and they make skin more sensitive to the sun.
- Vitamin C active (Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate): Dermatologists say children don't need vitamin C serums and that they can cause redness, burning, or peeling on young skin (American Academy of Dermatology, American Academy of Pediatrics). We can't see the strength, so low amounts are flagged too.
- Fragrance or essential oils (Limonene, Citral): Children's skin reacts to fragrance and essential oils more easily; fragrance-free products are the usual advice for kids, especially with eczema or sensitive skin.
Teens (ages 12–17)
Use with care
- Anti-aging retinoid (Retinyl Palmitate): Teen skin doesn't need anti-aging retinol, and it can irritate and make skin more sensitive to the sun. For pimples, adapalene (sold over the counter from age 12) is the retinoid dermatologists recommend.
Helps with acne: Niacinamide.
