I wonder how much of the increased incidence of melanoma also has something to do with people having too much faith in their sunscreen "protecting" them and thinking they can stay out in the sun longer without added protection. It is surprisingly a challenge to find sunscreens that have physical barriers like zinc or titanium oxide and don't contain oxybenzone.
