Experts agree sunscreen is essential and recommend mineral formulas as the safest choice, especially for children.

The solution isn’t to skip sunscreen; it’s to choose it wisely. Julia Varshavsky, assistant professor of public health and health sciences at Northeastern, recommends mineral-based & avoiding products with added fragrances and parabens as they’re more likely to contain potentially harmful additives.

The short answer is no. However, some chemical UV filters have recently come under scrutiny. FDA studies have found that certain ingredients are absorbed into the bloodstream at higher levels than previously expected. While this doesn’t automatically make them harmful, it’s raised valid concerns.

Fear has surged over the years about whether sunscreen is safe to use, but the truth is more nuanced than the headlines. Some people have even stopped wearing sunscreen altogether, which increases the risk of sunburn, premature aging, and skin cancer.
The big question is: Are sunscreens toxic?
