I was once called the Wikipedia of sunscreen by a morning news anchor.
I consider myself a total sunscreen geek!
Wait until you see my jaw drop in this conversation with cosmetic chemist and Stream2Sea founder Autumn Blum. She taught me things I had never considered before!
In this episode, you’ll learn:
Why a scuba diving trip halfway around the world completely changed the way Autumn formulates skincare products
The surprising connection between the sunscreen you put on in your backyard and ecosystems hundreds or even thousands of miles away
What researchers discovered about certain sunscreen ingredients that sparked bans in destinations around the world
Why the word “organic” on a personal care label may not mean what you think it means
How sunscreen ingredients can travel through both our bodies and our waterways
Why protecting your skin and protecting the environment may not be an either-or choice
This is one of those episodes that will absolutely make you think differently the next time you reach for a bottle of sunscreen.
