Thanks for posting this article. It caught my attention right away because of the name of the author. That is my wifes' name, right down to two P's in the last name! I've not known her to write sun screen articles, however.

I just wanted you to know that as a result of reading the article, I did log on to Aubrey Organic's website and purchased two tubes of the Green Tea Sunblock for Children.

We will be going on vacation in the High Sierras later this month. My girls inheirited my red hair and complexion, and when we get to high altitude, we BURN! So, sun screen is a daily ritual, especially up there being outdoors at 10,000 feet for seven days.

I've always hated sun screen, and wondered how good it was to put all that stuff on your skin day after day. I'll give this a try and let you know how it works out.

Thanks!
