Back in 2013, I wandered into the lab as my husband was pouring an entire bag of titanium dioxide (an approved sunscreen ingredient) into a glass mixer full of a brown liquid. When he was done adding the titanium dioxide, he turned on a UV light and aimed it at the tank.

***"Why are you doing that?"*** I asked.

***"Titanium dioxide's going to react with the UV light forming free radicals to destroy the color molecules in that liquid. It'll be colorless in a week."*** he answered.

I went pale and launched into a whole series of questions about the science behind it, whether the same thing happened in sunscreen and make-up and if zinc oxide did the same thing. That evening, I threw out all of my sunscreen.

Join me at this in-person event on Saturday, September 28th at 11 am to find out whether I went too far by tossing all the sunscreen.
