The cancer-causing chemical Benzene was found in many different sunscreens – that was the headline that made my DMs explode when I was on a supposedly chilled family hiking vacation in Bavaria. A trip where I, obviously, packed a ton of sunscreens to slather myself and the kids in every single day. So did I immediately throw those bottles away? Of course not. Did I still apply sunscreen like I used to? Of course I did! Does that mean I don’t think it is an issue? No,…

This blogpost uses affiliate links and contains PR (gifted items). I did not receive any money to write it. Please read disclaimer. I think you can learn a lot about a brand’s philosophy by their cleansers. Are they expensive and luxurious, are they affordable and basic, are they designed to give you a spa experience or do they simply get the job done?
