Have you ever wondered why your skin turns nearly purple under your SPF 50, or whether what you're applying is mutating you into a lizard? You're probably using a sunscreen that is neither effective nor safe. Since the FDA does not regulate claims on sunscreen, the Environmental Working Group compiled information on both the effectiveness and the potential health hazards of hundreds of products. Unfortunately, the one I (used to?) use, AloeGator, was not tested, so I may switch to another that is both effective and has fewer known health hazards. Check out your own brand or search for effective and safe ones at the Skin Deep Cosmetics Safety Database:
