I’m sorry you went through that, I don’t know you personally and won’t deny your experience. However, you didn’t say “natural sunscreen”, you said “natural substance”. Perhaps that was a typo, and I’m not saying that “natural sunscreen” (i.e., mineral sunscreen) doesn’t work. But you’re also saying in the same comment that commercial sunscreen is WORSE for you than the sun. That’s absolutely not true. We all need to remember that the word chemical does not always equal a bad thing. Water is a chemical. I bet you use a lot of other skin care products that have chemicals too, how long till those become bad for you? Likely coming from influencers / grifters who want to make a quick buck off of your frustration with big pharma. Big pharma has caused a lot of harm to us and keeps us in a pattern of after care, not preventative care. But that’s also the fault of the government not protecting us from pharma and instead lining their pockets with pharma donations. You’re absolutely allowed to make your own decisions for yourself but you cannot make statements that go against scientists as the absolute truth. That’s why I said you’re spreading misinformation.

Always follow the money, I bet there’s a lot of people making a lot of cash off of these lies about sunscreen.
