For eco-friendly sunscreen makers like Maui’s Jenna Davis, Hawaii’s new law banning sunscreens with coral-harming chemicals couldn’t have come at a better time and the pandemic couldn’t have come at a worse moment.
“I started the company before the bill was introduced, however we definitely saw a peak in sales and growth after the bill due to more media being shared about the importance of this topic,” said Davis, who created Raw Love Sunscreen in 2014. “COVID has really put a halt on sales but I am confident with time that will change.”
