Finally an article that says what I have been saying for years.These people slathering on the sunscreen are the same ones I see smoking cigarettes and drinking alcohol.Yet they look at me like I am nuts when I say I don’t use sunscreens.

It’s amazing when you suddenly think about it and realize isn’t it! Miessence have a great natural “reflect outdoor balm” if you’re planning to be outdoors for hours on end. Minerals sit on top of the skin rather than get absorbed by it. Here’s the link: http://organicbeautystore.mionegroup.com/en/product/13430 Miessence is particularly good because it’s certified organic around the world and is all natural.

Don Tolman also has written an interesting article about sun cancers and sunscreen here: http://www.dontolmaninternational.com/articles/skin-cancer—melanoma.html?utm_medium=email&utm_source=thewebconsole.com&utm_campaign=February+11th+2011++-+POWER+Skin+Cancer&utm_content=1710569

wow, Im so glad I found this article. And now that I come to think of it, it is true that wearing a toxic chemical in the sun is worse than not wearing one at all. I have been researching for a good lotion with spf for men but have not come across such a moisturiser. All the good moisturisers are those that have no spf i.e clinique dramatically different gel or whatever its called. Im going to research more about spf etx and then decide to use a cream with spf or not!

We certainly wouldn’t recommend senseless sun exposure. However, wearing a chemical cream on your skin while in the sun is toxic. Definitely cover up if you plan to be in the sun for a length of time, but sensible doses of sun without a chemical cream is good for your health. Your skin will thank you.

This post is pure ignorance, I’d like to see how your face turns out in a decade of senseless sun exposure.

I live with my parents and they have windows EVERYWHERE. So much light gets in that I might as well be outside. My skin barrier is really thin and I can actually feel the sun burning my skin, it happens so easily. If I try to get darker curtains, they get upset so I can’t do much else. I’m not sure what to do

ive never worn sunscreen since i could say i dont want it, and of course people have always been telling me i should know better,i should wear sun screen if not you could get skin cancer.
anyways its feels pretty good to read that someone else feels the same way i do. i really like when i actually have the time to sit and relax in the sun. but i hate the feeling of sunscreen.
i always tell people that “watch in a few years theirs gona be evidence that all this sunscreen your putting on, is the cause to a grate amount of skin cancers.” well anyway it was really good reading your blog or article whatever it maybe.
