Just last week I was shopping for sunscreen for my kids and my frustration was growing. My local stores carry ZERO chemical-free versions, and after doing some research online, I found out that my favorite brand from last summer actually has nano-sized particles that could sink into the skin and eventually reach my children's brains. Eeek! What's a paranoid mom to do?

Fortunately, the Environmental Working Group has done the work for me and this week they unveiled a new website to share their research. The bad news is that out of 738 products tested, they could only recommend 128. The good news is that I now have 128 products to choose from! They've rated the sunscreens as having a low, moderate, or high health hazard and also by the products effectiveness at blocking UVA and UVB rays.

Now I can go shopping and hopefully you too can find something that you can use on the list.
