What are the dangerous ingredients in chemical sunscreens?

[@OhWell0]

benzene, from a brief google search. Maybe more

[@Holisticskinguru]

There is a chemical UV blocker in chemical sunscreens, I'd always recommend looking for Zinc based sunscreens. Octocrylene can cause skin irritations and is also harmful to marine life.. Also Avobenzone is one of the worst ingredients you'll find in them!
