Are you breaking the law when you buy sunscreen from other countries? Why is U.S. sunscreen innovation so slow? What are the real differences between chemical and mineral sunscreens? Which sunscreens have been tested on animals and why? We get into all of it with Julian Sass, PhD, a cosmetic formulator, industry consultant, and creator of an extensive sunscreen database (click on the episode recap below for a link to it). Plus: He shares his favorite sunscreens, and we discuss cosmetic regulations around the world and debate which Pop-Tart flavor is best.
Below you’ll find a list of some of the people, topics, and products mentioned in this episode.
