You know you're supposed to be wearing sunscreen and a floppy hat when you spend time outside. Sometimes that's not enough to motivate you though, right? I'm the same way. On the other hand, knowing the scary stats behind too much sun exposure is just what I need to remember to grab the sunscreen before I go outside. Need some motivation of your own? Here you go!

@Scarlett, exactly my point. The problem is the sunscreen religion is so widespread that I would get eaten alive for opposing it.

We know a lot more about sunscreen and it's been actively promoted for decades and yet the skin cancer statistic don't go down. Thoughts?

Simple: The sunscreen itself causes cancer. Just build a tan slowly WITHOUT sunscreen. Ya, and being in the sun is a great way to get vitamin D, a NECESSARY vitamin that.. surprise...many are deficient in. Go figure.

I think it's crazy how our planet couldn't live without the sun, but sun exposure can be deadly for humans. Strange, this universe is.

I would like to add using sunscreen after being in the sun helps too. I have it in my moisturizer
