How carcinogenic is avobenzone in sunscreen?
Post Body

I (34, Male)ut on sunscreen every morning. I don’t mind zinc sunscreen when I’m specifically going to do something outside, but I prefer regular sunscreen for everyday wear, especially when going to work. Zinc sunscreen tends to leave white residue over everything I touch. How bad is avobenzone? I know it’s not great, but I figure it’s better than wearing nothing. I’m just a bit concerned because I am putting a lot of it on my skin almost every day. I live in an area with intense sun and have fair skin, so I really feel like I need to be using sunscreen. I’m just wondering if I really need to switch to zinc/mineral sunscreen because I really don’t like the way it feels to wear.
