No More Toxic Sun Screen!
I have been studying the hazardous effects from toxic ingredients in many very well known sunscreens!
Studies have found that the incidence of skin cancers has increased even as sunscreens have become popular, especially in fair skinned people.

Sunscreen Chemicals Generate Free Radicals
Most sunscreens contain ethylhexyl salicylate, homosalate, avobenzone, octyl methoxycinnamate, and Oxybenzone-Benzophenone, a powerful free radical generator that is activated by ultraviolet light! Free radicals damage the DNA of cells which produce skin aging and the development of cancer.
Chemical Sunscreens Increase Risk of Cancer/ Estrogenic
An observation between 1981-1992 estimated a 17% increase in breast cancer as a result of the influential use of sunscreens over the past decade. Using chemical sunscreens may increase your chances of developing endometriosis, breast cancer, and uterine cancer A clinical study showed the effect of sunscreen s on UV radiation-induced enhancement of melanoma growth in mice.(Journal of National Cancer Institute, Vol.86, No.10.

Alcohol is notorious for removing oil from skin. This oil is one of the body's primary natural defenses against bacteria. Tests demonstrate that repeated use of alcohol based hand sanitizers can actually lead to increased bacteria on the skin over time. In other words, ongoing use of alcohol-based hand sanitizers become less effective the more frequently they are used. Not to mention, dry ,cracked, damaged skin.

MAXINE'S SIDE NOTE:
For years I have used Tea Tree Oil and Neem in my treatment room. These oils produce amazing results for acne and post waxing for cleansing and inflammation.
. Neem's antiseptic properties are gaining recognition against a variety of skin diseases, septic sores, and infected burns. When the leaves are applied in the form of a poultice, it is recommended for boils, ulcers, and eczema. The oil is used for skin diseases such as scrofula, indolent ulcers and ringworm. Neem has been used traditionally in India to treat a host of viral infections and twigs are split and used to brush teeth in more rural areas.

Tea Tree Oil has been Mother Nature's antiseptic for years. This natural plant oil has scientifically-proven antiseptic and fungicidal properties. It has a great many uses, including acne, vaginal infections, athlete's foot, warts, insect bites, cold sores, minor burns, thrush and chronic fatigue syndrome.. Researches learned that the oil contains a powerful substance called terpinen 4 OL. This is the main ingredient responsible for it's germ-killing powers. In fact, you could think of terpinen 4 OL as Mother Nature's version of turpentine.
