Ladies! I just heard about how all kinds of sunscreens actually CAUSE skin cancer!!!! I thought I would come on here and share this with you all because the sunscreen that I have been putting on my 4 year old is on the worst possible list!!! So please go to http://www.ewg.org/2010sunscreen/ to see their list of good sunscreens that do their job!!! My father and his father have a history of skin cancer and I'm so glad to have found this site! I know that I'm probably more prone to it because of the family history - and now to find out that the sunscreen I was using to protect me might actually CAUSE cancer is frightening! I really hope you check out this site and pass it on to your friends and family!

I read up on this the other day when it came across an AOL news feed

YIKES!

Sadly, the one sunscreen I loved and am still hoarding is no longer being manufactured!

That's a great group Melissa! I've been using it for about a year to find out what products are in my skin care and makeup and shampoos and conditioners. I love their rating system!
Thanks for sharing it!
