UVA also dangerous
Scientists now recommend that sunscreens must protect against
UVA as well as UVB light. It was originally thought that UVA only
made harmless skin changes such as tanning. Now it is also suspected
of increasing UVB's ability to cause skin cancers.

It's official
Virtually no sunscreens give full protection against ultraviolet
light. The National Radiological Protection Board also warned
that substances used in some sunscreens may actually increase
the risk.
