Eltamd Case Study

One of the elements inside the sunscreen is called Retinyl Palmitate, which, or so dermatologists say, has connections with skin cancer, which was being seen when the scientists tested sunscreen out on rats. Others, though say that it’s a completely safe element. Another one is oxybenzone, and is said to interact in not such a good way with hormones inside bodies. At the same time this is not a reason to not use sunscreen. "If you covered your entire body with oxybenzone in the concentrations that are in sunscreens and used it every day, it would take over 30 years to get to the point of what these rats were fed in these studies," says dermatologist Darrell Rigel, MD, FAAD, who is a clinical professor of dermatology at New York University Langone Medical Center.[6] Another limitation of sunscreen is the fact that it doesn’t prevent cancer but causes even more of it. Sunscreen is a chemical assault on a human’s body, because it contains harsh alcohols, parabens, and petroleum oils. And another problem from sunscreen is it blocks vitamin D from coming into the human’s body once it’s applied. According to Natural News, almost 70% [5] of population in North America has vitamin D deficiency. Vitamin D deficiency leads to cancer, winter flu, depression, and hormonal imbalances. This of course does not mean humans shouldn’t wear sunscreen at all. If a person has pale skin and is going to be under sunlight for quite

Doctors recommend that to give skin the fullest protection from ultraviolet rays, people should use plenty of sunscreen, limit sun exposure, and wear protective clothing. The most common sunscreens today are known as “broad spectrum” because they block out both UVA and UVB rays. These lotions don’t feel any different on the skin from the old UVA-only types, but they work better at preventing premature aging and skin cancer. Many sunscreens claim to be waterproof, but they will hardly provide adequate coverage after extended periods of swimming or perspiring. To protect well, even waterproof sunscreens should be reapplied liberally and often. All areas of exposed skin, including ears, back of hands, and tops of feet, need to be coated well to

Several findings are made based on the results: UV radiation can cause cell death by inducing genetic mutation, which agree with Diepegen et al. (2012)’s finding regarding UV radiation’s destructive effect at a cellular level. Photoprotective agents can effectively prevent and reduce UV radiation induced damage to cells. Similar findings were made by Quatrano and Dinulos (2013), who indicated that sunscreen contains active ingredient that absorbs UV radiation ranging between 290-400 nm. This experiment proves that photoprotective agents with higher SPF values are more effective in absorbing UV radiation. Indicated by Green et al. (2011), they suggested that regular application of high SPF sunscreen will prevent melanoma.

As I was aimlessly wandering through the patriotically decorated aisles, I came across the best aisle in the entire store--the beauty section. All of my favorite products graced the shelves begging me to spend all of my money on them. Hundreds of little yellow sunscreen bottles and tanning oils lined the shelves in uniform on sale for the upcoming weekend’s outdoor festivities. They would work, but not as promptly as I needed them to. I needed something that does not require

In this experiment, I will be testing the effects of both chemical (commercial) sunscreens and mineral (alternative) sunscreens on human skin. Chemical and mineral sunscreen act in completely different ways. According to the Environmental Working Group (EWG), chemical sunscreens contain chemicals that act as endocrine disruptors, are estrogenic, and may interfere with thyroid and other hormone processes in the body. The most common chemical in these sunscreens

For baby boomer generation which is experiencing life changes brought by aging, they have shown increasing interests in cosmetics and toiletries, not only to enhance their appearance but also for other reasons. A simple example is that they use foundation with treatment ingredients to protect their skin against harmful UV rays, and to help a variety of skin problems.

Skin treatment products are often sold next to the cosmetics, but in reality are not cosmetics themselves. Skin treatment products are created with the purpose to improve the natural condition of the skin rather than purely the aesthetic. Cleansers, astringents, toners, acne medications, sunscreen, and lotion all help the skin stay healthy and free from blemishes. In the past, it used to be that consumers
