Very misleading headline. Completely agree with this statement. Seems as though the author is writing an article mostly defending their choice to live alone to a person who never really asked the question.

Click bait title basically.

The headline is a bit misleading. You should definitely experience living on your own in between living with roommates and living with a significant other.

Thanks for admitting to the world that you can’t read.

Summary, an earlier version of this post was not based in reality. It was based on the fear of GMO. It should be deleted.

Garbage article. Try harder next time.

As soon as I realized this was going down the EWG route I realized what fundamentally incorrect nonsense this article was going to be spouting. Sorry but the entire thing seems like it’s just anti-science “rah rah chemicals are bad” rhetoric.

I’ve worked for years at a sunscreen raw material manufacturer. Rule 1, If you can buy Australian marketed sunscreens, do. They have the most effective and long lasting formulas in the world. Unfortunately, many of these formulas cannot be sold into the US because the FDA has stopped approving new raw materials for…

I love when people use corporate shill websites to “debunk” these claims.

It’s also worth mentioning that Consumer Reports specifically sited mineral based sunscreens as not being effective. http://www.consumerreports.org/sunscreens/bes…

I think I’ll go with the Consumer Reports list instead of Mother Jones.

This article is misleading. The report doesn’t condemn all Coppertone products, they call out one specific Coppertone babies product. The other Coppertone products score pretty well on their scale.

This is important, because as I noted in my comment, Consumer Reports did not recommend as single mineral-only sunblock. All of them failed to provide as good of protection as the chemical based alternatives

Just popped in to add that prescription strength sun screen for a dermatologist is amazing. If nothing else works, look into it

This completely contrary to at least a couple recent Consumer Reports tests:

From a quick look at this report it looks like these ratings are primarily about the ingredients and whether or not the brand makes claims about being 50+ SPF. There’s nothing to indicate that a particular brand does or does not “work” in blocking the sun beyond a vague reference to UVA/UVB balance that is not…

For my money, you can’t beat NO-AD 45. It’s anecdotal evidence but it saved my skin (pun intended) in the TCI, when Coppertone and spray sunscreens failed miserably. Also, I don’t think I’ve ever seen the other brands on the “good” list before.

I looked up the list from Mother Jones on Amazon and nearly all of them have multiple reviews that state something like“I love that it’s all natural but I still got burnt.”

I bought a giant beach hat last year, and it was the best thing I’ve ever done. It’s hot at the beach and you sweat a lot (particularly if you’re downing a jug of sangria), so it was super hard for me to keep my face from getting burned. Giant sunhat to the rescue! I don’t care if it looks ridiculous, my face has…
