If you use Neutrogena, Coppertone, Kiss My Face, or any of the other popular brands of sunblock/sunscreen, you may want to read this. Approximately 80% of the sunblock/sunscreen products do very little to protect you. In fact, some maybe harmful.

Badger, which is on the top of the list as one of the safest, is a chemical free sunblock product that is safe for the face and body. Its ingredients include: Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil, Beeswax, Organic Jojoba Oil, Organic Cocoa Butter, Wild Africa Shea Butter, Organic CO2 Extract of Seabuckthorn Berry, and Essential Oils of Lavender, Moroccan Blue Tansy, Ylang Ylang, Lime, and Orange with 20.5% of zinc oxide as the active ingredient for sun protection. It has a nice minty scent, too. However, the price is exhuberant - $12 per 2.9 oz.. or $33 per 8 oz but a little goes a long way.

Now that the company has gained publicity, I hope the price will drop so that more people can use this great product.
