A little SPF never hurt anyone, right? Think again. Although we use sunscreen to protect our skin from the sun’s harmful UV rays, many sunscreens on the market can actually contain harmful chemicals and parabens. Luckily, there are some great organic sunscreens out there that will provide us with the protection we need without the chemicals we don’t.
