Toxic chemicals in sunscreens can cause skin cancer. Octyl-dimethyl-PABA (OD–PABA), Benzophenone-3 (Bp-3), Homosalate (HMS), Octyl-methoxycinnamate (OMC) and 4-methyl-benzylidene camper (4-MBC) are all toxic chemicals commonly found in sun block products. The sun does not cause skin cancer, but these toxic sunscreens do.*
From now on, use natural sunscreens with vitamins C and E included. Apply zinc oxide to places that burn easily. Of course, avoid direct sunlight for long periods, too.
