A few weeks ago, I slathered Banana Boat's SPF30 all over my body and went to the beach. I didn't go in the water and reapplied. When I got home, I had the WORST sunburn in my entire life.

I might have skin cancer in twenty years and all I get for their defective product was two tubes of sunscreen. I’m not surprised.

I just found out that the sunscreen I have been using is in the list of products that not only don't work, but are not safe. I am switching immediately. Thank you so much for this article!
