How Safe Is Sunscreen?

With summer upon us, sunscreen confusion is reaching a bit of a screechy pitch, no? A few days ago, the Environmental Working Group released its fourth annual Sunscreen Guide, where they reviewed 500 sunscreens based on the safety of their ingredients and the effectiveness of the SPF. Of those, they will only recommend a measly 8 percent. It’s totally unsettling stuff, but there’s no sense in throwing in the towel just yet. We tried to make sense of the confusion in our latest post on GOOD series.
