i scream, you scream, ...
We all scream for sunscreen...
What do you use? Maybe you should think about upgrading... Consumer Reports rated Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry-Touch SPF 45 as the best and the best buy as No-Ad Sunblock Lotion Maximum SPF 45. Both are highly rated for UVA and UVB. -- "j" ganz @@ www.sailnow.com |

I used that No Ad crap on my face and neck before a job interview. I sat there looking like a toad with blisters and bumps on my face and neck. I didn't get the job. Ocean Potion puts orange sweat marks and ring around the collar on my clothes. Bleach won't take the stains out but soaking overnight in Oxyclean does. I tried Bull Frog, but if you don't put it on fast enough, it dries really fast and you look like you have pieces of dried snot on your face. Now i use that spray on Bull Frog. I luv the stuff. It doubles as aftershave because it has alcohol in it and stings your face. They even have a version with Deet in it. |

No....it is common with people with allergies....the No-Ad fake tan stuff does the same thing...I know quite a few people that have reacted that way to it...it is a chemical, after all, and you are pouring it into your pores where it is difficult to sweat out... |

There is a lot of hype put about regarding the dangers of sun exposure
put about by those profiting from the cancer creation industry. Remember for each person who dies of skin cancer 30 excess deaths occur in the most common cancers breast prostate lung colon, These and 13 other cancers thrive in vitamin d depleted bodies. Applying sunscreen/sunblock prevents UVB rays from reaching the skin. Putting it on before you go out therefore totally prevents any vitamin d being made. This is why the average European woman has Vitamin d status around 50nmol/L, the level needed for maximum calcium absorption is 80nmol/L and to have 50% less breast cancer it's best to have 130nmol/L. If the advice from "Official" sources was correct we would not have the current deficiency epidemic. 9 out of 10 UK White adults are below 75nomol/l in Winter and 60% remain so the whole year. If you take the official RDA vitamin D and follow official RDA advice you will be vitamin d deficient. Similarly if you rely on your doctor to correct that deficiency you will be ill advised as they generally prescribe D2 Ergocalciferol and The Case Against Ergocalciferol as a Vitamin Supplement explains why. http://www.ajcn.org/cgi/content/full/84/4/694 http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/en...rch=1 7259988 DCs metabolize sunlight-induced vitamin D3 to 'program' T cell attraction to the epidermal chemokine CCL27. explains how when UVB rays touch your skin the first thing the newly made Vitamin D3 does is to program your "T"Cells to start fighting skin cancer. Vitamin D synthesis is a heat driven self-limiting process. This means you need an erythemal index above 3 and UVB rays. These are only present when your shadow is shorter than your height and if you live above latitude 37 during the summer. The self-limiting bit means that once the cholesterol in your skin is converted to vitamin d3 it then should further heat be applied, be further processed into suprasterols. These are not used. So to maximise your vitamin D production you need to GO INSIDE or COVER UP after 20 minutes. (you will make 1000iu every 5 minutes so 20 minutes full body (or near as possible) exposure provides the amount you use daily. If you are trying to build stores for the Winter or rectify a deficiency situation then wait an hour for your skin to cool and the vitamin d to be absorbed then try for another 15 mins. But be aware 10,000iu is about all that the body usually makes each day so is a natural maximum. So 1x 20 + 2 x 15mins exposures are around the most anyone can benefit from. |

Haha, no it's not purple! The kids musta got a hoot out of that! It was what was laying around the boatyard when I was working there full time in the sun. Now I just stick with long pants, long sleeved shirts, and my big ass gardening hat. I still get pretty dark here and there but no burns. People give me funny looks when I got to the dermatologist's...I tend to stick out of the pasty white crowd. Seahag |

This isn't what dermatologists stay. You should be applying sunblock 15-20 minutes before exposure. Tanning in intense sun can take place in much less than 15 minutes and no tanning is good. Where you get this stuff, I have no idea. -- "j" ganz @@ www.sailnow.com |
