Rates of people who are diagnosed with skin cancer have been on the rise since the 1970s when studies revealed the dangers of too much sun exposure.

In the Environmental Working Guide’s (EWG) 2014 Guide to Sunscreens, they argue that it’s because people have become too reliant on sunscreens to protect their skin and therefore don’t take other precautionary measures (such as staying out of the sun at midday, or sitting in the shade).

However, another recent study that was featured in RealFarmacy has recently caused controversy after it claimed that an a study has proved that sunburn doesn’t actually cause cancer and that it might in fact be the sunscreen that we’ve been using to protect ourselves that is in fact hurting us.

Many publications have since clarified that this is not true and in fact, the study which followed 30,000 women over a 20 year period, found that “mortality was about double in women who avoided sun exposure compared to the highest exposure group.” Thus, only stating what we already knew: Limited sun exposure is good for you.

But whatever the science behind the sun and sunscreens, it’s become abundantly clear that the more natural ingredients will be better for our bodies and the environment. EWG has put together a list of the best (and most natural sunscreens) for our ease, but if you can’t find any of these at your local stores, it’s always a good idea to read the labels carefully.

To put your mind at ease, here are ten safe sunscreens that will let you enjoy the sun (in moderation) without the worry.
