Thanks a lot! However, I don't understand why PEG is toxic. It's known as the most biocompatible polymer that does not penetrate the skin. Please let me know the reason if any one knows. Thanks!

No offense, but I work in cancer and other medical research and I don't agree with your statement. I understand that we all have a right to free speech. My opinion is that we should be more aware of the chemicals that we put on and in our bodies. Cancer and other cell mutations are caused by genetic or environmental pressures (chemicals, etc). PEG and paraformaldehydes are chemicals commonly used in the laboratory that are not healthy for you. Formaldehydes are carcinogenic and are used as a preservative. BTW the liver and kidneys are involved in the detoxification of the body. Toxins are removed from the blood, so the toxins must pass through the cells and then get into your blood stream, so if there are mutations occuring at the cellular level how are your kidneys going to remove those toxins? I appreciate the original poster for doing her research and informing us so we don't have to do all the leg work to find healthy products. I don't appreciate posters that don't make the effort to be informed before making assumptions and decisions. Our poor education in the school systems and the lack of care to learn about the human body has put us in a vulnerable position. Knowledge is power. I suggest that we all take the time to learn about how our body functions and what chemicals are carcinogenic so we can avoid them. My response is to the person above, the 22 year old.

My 6-month-old has my light red hair and his dad's blue eyes, so he's basically melanoma waiting to happen. We've already got the California Baby sunscreen on hand - I'm glad we picked that one. I'm also a big fan of the UPF clothing and picked up the Patagonia Sunshade top and a few SPF hats. I figure you can never have too much sun protection. This is so helpful!
