Sunblock warning!
TGB1:
I am not surprised about this. Chemicals are seldom a good answer for anything outside of a research lab.
Kojak:
Great info. Looks like the products on their suggested list would be hard to come by without purchasing them on the internet.

They get away with it because the FDA's supposed regulations regarding sunscreen that were originally written in 1978 and last updated in 2007 have never been enacted. Thus, the companies who make the sunscreens have never had to comply with the regulations because, in truth, they don't exist on a practical/enforceable level. According to the "law" they would have to truthfully describe what specific protections they afford but, since they regulations don't legally exist in an enforceable form, they don't have anything to comply with!

Buddha........I also have been reading on this subject and have had skin cancer . I'm a firm believer of wide brim hats.....they don't cause cancer.

Thanks for the info---oddly enough, I went shopping yesterday for some sunscreen and had the same questions as some on here. I am of Scott-Irish descent, which means I MUST protect the skin. Already have had some lesions removed. I will use the sunscreen, but the hat will be used, also.
I did not know the temperature gauge the dome is!! I feel cool breezes more readily than others and a real "mind blower" was feeling the heat these computer screens put out whenever I turn my head to speak to someone. I have always been tolerant to the heat----living in Mississippi, that is a must----but I learned to WEAR the hat and protect the head. Actually got dizzy after being out for a short period of time yesterday. LOVE the SLY and will never go back, though.
