I love the smell of Coppertone\\u2026 brings back fond memories of my childhood. Oooh and baby oil\\u2026 my girlfriends and I would slather that stuff all over our bodies in hopes of achieving that deep dark California tan. If we only knew! Not only were we damaging our skin but that pleasant smell of Coppertone is a highly toxic synthetic fragrance which is just one of the harmful ingredients you\'ll find in conventional sunscreen.

\\n

I\'m often asked which clean sunscreen I recommend. Fortunately, there are several excellent nontoxic sunscreen options that work well without being a gooey mess or leaving a white film on your skin. This week I\\u2019m sharing my favorite brands including the sunscreen that my kids like.

\\n

You\'ll also hear which ingredients you do NOT want in your sunscreen. Even several mainstream western doctors now admit that the chemicals found in most brands are dangerous. They are also horrible for marine life. They are killing the coral reefs! When you choose clean sunscreen you take a step toward protecting your health and protecting the environment.
