According to this article, I should switch sunscreen brands. *sigh*

(Finding a tolerable sunscreen is hard, I really don't want to have to switch.)

Mine - which is terribly annoying bc of the thickness of the zinc oxide - actually comes out well by those assessments. Of course, I seldom wear it...

Yeah. Since I need to use some amount of sunscreen almost all the time, it really needs to be tolerably comfortable to wear. Well, a-hunting I shall go...

I know. I've been fretting about that too. HOWEVER, I'm clinging to the bit about reapply every couple of hours. Still. Pain in the ass.

I recommend Lavera for faces. Rates well, non-greasy, titanium based and gives you an attractive 16th century pallor...

Also. EVERYTHING gives you cancer. :(

Heh. Well, I know that: LIFE gives you cancer.

Still, I try to go on the theory of avoiding *daily* use of things that are particularly suspect. And for me, being descended solely from pasty-skinned Northern European mutants, sunscreen needs to be pretty constant...

Oh, and thanks for the tip, I will put that on my list of brands to try.
