Hi everyone. Writing to bring your attention to a wonderful article written by Amanda Schaffer in yesterday's Slate. Schaffer discusses the question, "Is tanning addictive?" (the title of the article), whether or not sunscreen really protects us against skin cancer, and the future of sun protection in a pill. Check it out, it's worth a read. Also see Health and Beauty expert Sue Chung's blog "Does Tanning Minimize Cellulite?" here at SKinCancerConnection.
