[quote=Anonymous]OP, the incidence of skin cancer has gone up with rising rates of sunscreen use. It's possible that when it breaks down, sunscreen can either make solar radiation more damaging or it can itself damage skin, making cancer more likely. It's also possible that it doesn't do as good of a job at blocking skin-cancer-promoting radiation (as it does of blocking a tan) and so it leads to greater incidence of cancer because you stay out in the sun longer when you use it. It's a better idea to push your family (and encourage your kids) to wear protective clothing (hats, long sleeves, etc) use umbrellas, or stay out of the sun during the most dangerous parts of the day. I no longer use sunscreen because of the research correlating it with skin cancer. I use a combination of the methods above.[/quote]
