"Many sunscreens available in the US may be the equivalent of modern-day snake oil, plying customers with claims of broad-spectrum protection but not providing it, while exposing people to potentially hazardous chemicals that can penetrate the skin into the body."
With older women and men doing water aerobics and swimming laps, wouldn’t you think the bathing suit manufacturers would twig to there’s a huge market out here? We buy suits more often than teenagers because we’re harder on them. No lying still on a beach blanket for hours, or languidly standing around the lifeguard’s chair.
Three varied sources provide shopping destinations for the home, low-cost and attractive jewelery and accessories, as well as vintage sewing patterns. We found Beyond Wonderland at the Maker Faire in San Mateo.
