Sunscreen is a no-brainer in the summertime. Or is it? We’ve talked to dermatologists about sunscreens and how to choose one, but the conversation is decidedly more complex than that. The Environmental Working Group (EWG), a lobbying group and think tank, stays on top of environmental concerns. It’s not a huge fan of sunscreens (though they acknowledge that they’re necessary), and just released its annual sunscreen report. They profiled over 1,700 products and claim that 80% of these aren’t safe.
