Don’t spray the sunscreen! What the FDA is looking at...

Kids need sunscreen – but skip the spray variety for now. 

According to Consumer Reports, the FDA is looking into the potential risks of spray sunscreen, especially for children. It’s easy for children to inhale those tiny toxic particles when spraying near the face or in a breeze. Adults should opt for the lotion variety too.

It’s also harder to effectively apply enough spray sunscreen. If it’s the only product you have, you should spray it into your hand and then rub it on. Never spray sunscreen directly onto the face.
