Are There Any Controversies Surrounding Sunscreen?

Ingredients like oxybenzone and octinoxate have been shown to contribute to coral bleaching, leading some regions to ban these chemicals. Additionally, there are ongoing debates about the safety of nanoparticles in physical sunscreens, although current evidence suggests they do not penetrate healthy skin.
