When we were in Mexico, Charity's mom pulled out a can of aerosol sunscreen. I didn't really like the idea of it, but used it anyway since I'd forgotten to bring any myself. Today I came across an article on sunscreens, and of course, the general message is that most of them don't do what they claim to do, and are potentially toxic to boot. As for aerosol sunscreens? Don't.
The story basically discusses a study done by the Environmental Working Group. Out of the 746 products they took a look at, only 19 were rated as both effective and safe. Scary!
