Clear 50+

SPF 50+, broad spectrum, lotion. AUST L 397470, from Sun Bum Pty Ltd.

Keep using sunscreen. The TGA says its benefits far outweigh any risks, and nothing here says a product is unsafe: the limits are proposals.

Active ingredients

IngredientOn the ARTG asAmount%
Avobenzone butyl methoxydibenzoylmethane30 mg/mL≈3% w/v
Octocrylene octocrylene100 mg/mL≈10% w/v
Octisalate octyl salicylate50 mg/mL≈5% w/v
Zinc oxide Mineral zinc oxide117 mg/mL≈11.7% w/v

Percent by weight: the ARTG gives each active in mg per gram, and 10 mg/g is 1%. This entry gives amounts per mL, so the figures marked ≈ are by volume (100 mg/mL is about 10%); by weight they would be a little different, depending on the product’s density.

Against the TGA’s proposed limits

This sunscreen lists none of the three filters under review (homosalate, oxybenzone and 4-MBC), so none of the proposed limits would apply to it.

Where this comes from

Everything above is from this product’s entry on the Australian Register of Therapeutic Goods: ARTG 397470, Clear 50+. We read its public summary on 21 October 2026; the entry dates from 11 October 2022. The name on the shelf can differ from the register’s. If the label shows a different AUST L number, it’s a different formula. Spotted a mistake? Email hello@sunscreenfilters.com.
