The SPF 34 Anti-Bug Sunscreen is made without DEET and other harmful chemical ingredients. As a result, the [Environmental Working Group](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/natural-baby-sunscreen) has given it the lowest hazard rating, which is rare for both sunscreen and insect repellent products. As far as what this [multipurpose mineral sunscreen](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/saltyface-daily-sun-shield-mineral-sunscreen) is made of, the ingredients include organic ingredients like citronella, lemongrass, rosemary, castor oil and geranium. This mighty non-nano sunscreen and bug repellent is water- and sweat-resistant for up to 40 minutes, plus the SPF 34 Anti-Bug Sunscreen is completely biodegradable and does not pose a threat to natural ecosystems on land on in the water. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 0.6/10 - Popularity: 2% | Activity: 9% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Gen Alpha, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Health](https://www.trendhunter.com/health) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Two-in-one Sunscreen:** Developing other two-in-one products that can provide multiple benefits in one application can save consumers time and money. - **Non-toxic Sun Protection:** There is an opportunity for companies to develop more natural sunscreens that use non-toxic and eco-friendly ingredients. - **Eco-friendly Bug Repellent:** Companies can look into developing more eco-friendly and biodegradable bug repellents that do not harm the environment. ### Who This Affects Most - **Sun Care Industry:** Companies can explore new and innovative ways to create sun protection products that use natural and non-toxic ingredients while still providing effective sun protection. - **Insect Repellent Industry:** There is an opportunity for companies to create eco-friendly and biodegradable bug repellents that do not harm the environment. - **Outdoor Industry:** Companies within the outdoor industry can look into developing new products that combine multiple benefits and provide convenience for consumers who spend time outdoors. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Hybrid Bug Spray Sunscreens](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/skin-so-soft-bug-guard.md) - [Hybrid Sun-Protecting Insect Creams](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mosquitmed-sun-protection.md) - [Continuous-Spray Bug Sunscreens](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/continuous-spray-sunscreen.md) - [Reef-Safe Seaweed Sunscreens](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/badger.md) - [Natural Outdoor Bug Repellents](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bug-buster-insect-repellent.md) - [Child-Centric Insect Repellent Sprays](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/insect-repellent-spray.md) - [Plant-Based Sun Protectors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/plantbased-sun-protectors.md) - [Plastic-Free Mineral Sunscreens](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/plastic-free-mineral-sunscreen.md) - [Non-Chemical Sunscreens](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kaos-biore.md)
