Study: Many Sunscreens Ineffective, Men Lag in Sun Protection

Many sunscreens don't work as well as they should.

A recent study showed that some sunscreens either don't protect you properly or have ingredients that could be harmful.

Men often forget to use sunscreen, and women don't always use it as much as they should.

You should look for "broad-spectrum" sunscreen with an SPF between 30 and 50.

Ingredients like oxybenzone might cause problems.

Also, remember to reapply sunscreen every couple of hours.

The most important thing is to use sunscreen consistently to protect your skin from the sun.
