Coppertone Complete Sunscreen Lotion SPF 50
This one is the family bottle. Coppertone Complete lotion is SPF 50 for face and body, and the Canadian page says to reapply every 80 minutes if you want the water hold.
The formula is broad spectrum, so it covers UVA and UVB. Coppertone says this lotion skips oxybenzone, octinoxate, parabens, PABA, phthalates, and dyes. The site also warns that the drug facts online can differ from the pack you buy.
Beiersdorf owns Coppertone after a 550 million US dollar deal with Bayer. The Canadian office is in Saint-Laurent, Quebec. No plant is named for this Complete lotion.
Use it as an everyday body and face sunscreen. Coppertone still tells you to limit midday sun and to wear a hat.

Our Canadian score
Limited Canadian ties
Complete is the family bottle in a German-owned lineup. Saint-Laurent handles Canadian contact. The page never prints a filling plant, so a Canada-made label has no support.

This score is our own read of publicly available evidence, not a regulatory finding. It is not a CFIA or Competition Bureau origin determination, and it is not the same as the "Product of Canada" or "Made in Canada" claims a manufacturer prints on a label.
