Sunny weather is here/around the corner. Be aware of Butyloctyl Salicylate found in sun screens.

Just want to share some info on the ingredients found in most sunscreens. It can be very hard to avoid but worth being aware of.
Second picture in the comments.

Things you can do to avoid or limit exposure to it…

Buy mineral sunscreen w/o this ingredient (not my favorite bc its so thick…)

Wear UPF clothing, I love wearing shrugs/shawls from Solbari or Coolibar

Using a large brim hat.

For babies draping a rayon UPF blanket on them + UPF hat

For toddlers buying UPF clothing + mineral sunscreen + UPF hat

Note: Im in the US. Regulations and ingredients found in products can vary by country
