I love this stuff!

Sunscreen Can Damage Skin if Applied Infrequently - Yahoo! News:
In the new study, scientists found that three widely used, FDA-approved UV filters (octylmethoxycinnamate, benzophenone-3 and octocrylene) actually generate ROS in skin when exposed to ultraviolet radiation. So the sun's damaging effect is multiplied when the sunscreen has been on too long.
I mean, hey, I just do. Don't ask me to explain it - love is love.

Also, how wonderful is a journal named "Free Radical Biology & Medicine"?

Woohoo!
