It comes from the fact that it’s another thing that people have to research and spend money on. People tend to be suspicious when something is advertised too much. Plus introducing it into a routine is kind of a hassle at first. Finding a good sunscreen is a hassle too.
People (myself included) are so poor and busy these days so I totally understand the skepticism. Especially when the damage is not readily apparent. “Do I really need to apply this everyday?” is a totally valid reaction.
I use it out of necessity since I’m ghost white and live in Florida. I’d turned beet red in an hour if I didn’t use sunscreen. But I understand the skeptical people. I didn’t fall for the anti-sunscreen bandwagon, but I fell for the anti-fluoride stuff for a short while. It’s natural to want to look at all sides of a story, and sometimes facts get twisted and temporarily sound convincing (not this guy in particular though).
With social media and grifters there is an incentive to use fear mongering. Also, some people just really believe these things and now they have a platform to share their misinformation to millions of other people who otherwise would have never heard it.
I think social media gives uneducated, gullible people a platform to spout their nonsense and reach their gullible audience. They are the toxin, not sunscreen.
“In a large two-generation study, pregnant dams were treated with OMC in doses of 150, 450 or 1000 mg/kg bw/day in the feed. Exposure began before mating and continued throughout gestation, lactation, adolescence, mating of the F1 generation and until weaning of the F2 generation. Exposure caused no adverse effects on reproduction and development. The authors concluded that OMC displayed no estrogenic potential in vivo (Schneider et al., 2005)…”
I dont now how those studies are allowed to be performed. No one is going to take oraly hight doses of those compounds. What was the purpose of those studies? Cause thats animal abuse for nothing, and thats disgusting.
Damn. Sunscreen denialism is starting to be popular. I wonder what that came from? Was there a Wakefield style quack that got a Lancet article?

Dr. Dray’s facial expressions are outstanding!😊
👍👍 😂😂😂
You’re so diplomatic to refer to him as “creator” instead of other more colorful terms. I wouldn’t have been able to show such restraint.
What would she refer to him as??
Is that sun damage in his face!?
😂
Some people just want you to be afraid of everything
As a Fluoride and Sunscreen loving, but self described hippie, it is RIFE in those communities.
And some others just want you not to be.
I think he’s been eating his sunscreen.
Lol
I’ve been watching your hair journey. You’re hair looks amazing!
No offense, but I would never take skincare advice from that man
are you saying I shouldn’t be eating my sunscreen? what about every once in a while as a little treat? 🥺
Oh no, sunscreen, my favourite summer snack..
Goes well with ice cream, and chocolate, everything goes well with chocolate.

I’m going to take my titanium sunscreen and melt it down into a hip replacement. That’ll work right? I can do it on TikTok…
😂😂😂right??? Titanium?? This guy is a quack!!! Love Dr Dray for calling the nuts out in such a diplomatic manner. ❤
Thank you for being realistic❤
Darwin’s theory at work
Once these sunscreen denialists get skin cancer and it metastasize, will they refuse chemo as well?

TY Dr Dray. You are my go to derm for facts.
Every substance that has no evidence of safety should be avoided.
