PCPC launches Safe Sun videos The Personal Care Products Council (PCPC) launched of a new video series, Skin Smart, which takes an in-depth look at the role sunscreens play as part of an overall safe sun routine. The videos aim to alleviate confusion and correct misinformation about sunscreen use and its safety and explains the new sunscreen labeling regulations recently passed by the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA), which went into effect in December 2012. The first episode in the series includes appearances by dermatologists Doris Day, MD and Diane Berson, MD who are working to help patients understand sun damage and the importance of caring for their skin. In Episode Two, “Anti-aging and Skin Cancer Prevention,” Skin Smart takes an in-depth, science based look at the damage the sun can have on us and the important role sunscreens play as part of an overall safe sun regimen. PCPC and leading dermatologists discuss the effects of sun damage, debunk troubling myths about the safety of sunscreen ingredients, and explain the benefits of using sunscreen daily in the fight against skin cancer and premature skin aging. “Our mission here is critical: to raise awareness and educate women and men about the harmful effects the sun has on our skin,” said Farah Ahmed, Chair of the PCPC Sunscreen Committee. “Our message is clear—sunscreens are not just for the summer or the beach. They should be used by people of all ages and skin tones, every day, rain or shine and year round,” said Ahmed. To view Skin Smart episode two: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y8G5bR5GupI.
