August 27, 2021 at 8:42 amHi! As I familiarized myself with more physicians, cosmetic chemists, and science in general over the past couple of years, I learned more about how the EWG comes to their conclusions on ingredients and it doesn’t sit right with me. Here are some articles to consider:

August 30, 2021 at 1:40 pmI will definitely check out those articles about EWG, but one thing i do like about their site is that in terms of sunscreen they evaluate the UVA/UVB balance, and that is information not always easy to come by otherwise.
