What is your in your suncreen ?

Not all sunscreens are safe! There are TWO on the market that are safe, chemical free, and don't contribute to skin cancer.
In all, 84 percent of the 831 sunscreens EWG tested did not pass health and environmental muster. Many contained potentially harmful chemicals like Benzophenone, homosalate and octyl methoxycinnamate (also called octinoxate), which are known to mimic naturally occurring bodily hormones and can thus throw the body’s systems out of whack. Some also contained Padimate-0 and parsol 1789 (also known as avobenzone), which are suspected of causing DNA damage when exposed to sunlight. Furthermore, EWG found that more than half the sunscreens on the market make questionable product claims about longevity, water resistance and UV protection.

Scientific Reports are out !

Scientific Reports came out on Fox News today..Spray tanning has been proven to cause genetic defects, early aging and actual mutations in people later in life....eewww! So glad I have never done that and do not!! It is funny, we all kind of hold our breath and wait for the effects of things that never really were researched when they came out. It is just a drum roll on implants.....I think it would be funny if they started exploding after like 20 years...lol! So glad I have real hair, my own color on my skin and my own features on my body...lol!
