Is it suitable during pregnancy?
MamaSkin rates the recorded formula for Amaterasun Physical Sunscreen SPF 50+ as Low risk (77/100). Review the ingredient context and any manual-review explanation before deciding.
Why this rating?
The recorded formula includes 6 ingredient entries with risk flags: Cyclohexasiloxane (Low risk), Butyloctyl Salicylate (Low risk), Trimethylsiloxysilicate (Low risk), plus others listed in the breakdown. These are ingredient-level flags; they do not replace the stored product assessment or account for every formulation detail.
34 of 34 ingredient entries on this page have a recorded score, evidence summary and source text. That describes documentation coverage, not proof that the finished formula has been clinically tested during pregnancy.

Ingredient ratings and evidence
Higher-risk flags first. Open an ingredient for evidence.
Cyclohexasiloxane
Low risk
A volatile cyclic silicone also known as D6, used for slip and quick-drying texture. Normal topical exposure is expected to be limited, but exact-ingredient pregnancy evidence is limited and cyclic siloxanes have route-specific toxicology and regulatory considerations. MamaSkin therefore classifies it as low risk rather than a pregnancy contraindication.

Trimethylsiloxysilicate
Low risk
A silicone resin used as a film former in long-wear makeup, sunscreen and hair products. Cosmetic safety reviewers concluded it is safe in current use when the finished product is not irritating or sensitizing to the respiratory tract. MamaSkin classifies it as low risk because the qualification depends on formulation and inhalation route rather than a known pregnancy-specific hazard from normal topical use.
Sources: CIR: Safety Assessment of Silylates and Surface-Modified Siloxysilicates; International Journal of Toxicology 32(Suppl. 1):5-24 (2013) https://cir-safety.org/ingredient/trimethylsiloxysilicate
Dimethicone
Low risk
Dimethicone is a silicone polymer used as a skin protectant and slip/conditioning agent. It is considered inert with minimal dermal absorption; the main practical issues are cosmetic (feel) and occasional irritation in very sensitive users. It is not a pregnancy-specific concern in topical cosmetic use.

Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate
Low risk
A purified glycyrrhizic-acid salt used as a soothing and skin-conditioning ingredient. Cosmetic safety reviewers concluded that dipotassium glycyrrhizate is safe in current cosmetic use and noted poor dermal absorption. MamaSkin nevertheless applies a cautious low-risk classification for consistency with the existing licorice family because high oral glycyrrhizin exposure has pregnancy-related concerns; this is not a topical contraindication.

Ethyl Ferulate
Low risk
Ethyl ferulate is an ester of ferulic acid used as an antioxidant/skin-protecting ingredient (often in photoprotection-support formulas). Available cosmetic literature describes it mainly as a topical antioxidant with low systemic concern at typical use; the main practical issue is potential irritation in sensitive skin at higher concentrations or in alcohol-heavy formulas. It is not a typical pregnancy-specific concern in topical cosmetic use.

Butyloctyl Salicylate
Low risk
Butyloctyl salicylate is a salicylate ester that the CIR panel considered safe as used in cosmetics when formulated to be non-irritating. Available safety data support low dermal toxicity, and at typical cosmetic use levels the expected systemic salicylate exposure from topical application is far below oral salicylate exposure, which fits a low-risk classification.
Sources: MotherToBaby: Topical acne treatments including salicylic acid https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK582985/
Water
No known risks
Water (Aqua) is the standard purified water used as a cosmetic solvent. It has no pregnancy-specific risk in normal topical use.
Sources: https://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/compound/Water, https://single-market-economy.ec.europa.eu/sectors/cosmetics/cosmetic-ingredient-database/cosing-glossary-ingredients_en
Zinc Oxide
No known risks
Mineral ingredient used as a UV filter and skin protectant in many creams and mineral sunscreens. For typical topical use, systemic absorption is very low and it is generally considered acceptable in pregnancy and breastfeeding. If you prefer a cautious approach, avoid inhaling loose powders or spray formats.
Sources: General dermatology/obstetric guidance commonly lists mineral sunscreens (zinc oxide) as acceptable in pregnancy; exposure route considerations for powders/sprays.
Propanediol
No known risks

Disiloxane
No known risks

Questions about this assessment
Why does Amaterasun Physical Sunscreen SPF 50+ have a Low risk rating?
The recorded formula includes 6 ingredient entries with risk flags: Cyclohexasiloxane (Low risk), Butyloctyl Salicylate (Low risk), Trimethylsiloxysilicate (Low risk), plus others listed in the breakdown. These are ingredient-level flags; they do not replace the stored product assessment or account for every formulation detail. The product score is a stored assessment, not a clinical safety guarantee.
Is the MamaSkin score a measure of SPF or sun protection?
No. The score and risk band describe MamaSkin's pregnancy-focused ingredient screening of this recorded formula. They do not measure SPF, UVA protection, water resistance or whether you have applied enough sunscreen. Use the protection and application instructions on your exact packaging, and review the ingredient flags separately.
Has every ingredient in Amaterasun Physical Sunscreen SPF 50+ been assessed?
34 of 34 ingredient entries on this page have a recorded score, evidence summary and source text. That describes documentation coverage, not proof that the finished formula has been clinically tested during pregnancy.
Does this assessment apply to my Amaterasun Physical Sunscreen SPF 50+?
Only if the ingredient list on your packaging matches the recorded formula shown here. Formulas can differ by market and change over time. Compare the full list, not just the product name; report a mismatch if it differs.
Does this pregnancy assessment also establish breastfeeding suitability?
No. This page presents a pregnancy-focused product assessment. Do not infer a breastfeeding conclusion from its score or label; breastfeeding requires a separate assessment of the formula and how it is used.
