Your Lotion Can Give You Skin Cancer

Cute little hairless mice, right?

Actually they are cute, little hairless skin cancer mice.

Rutgers University researchers have found a possible link between lotions and getting skin cancer.

They tested four brands of moisturizer: Dermavan, Eucerin, Vanicream, and Dermabase. The researchers exposed hairless mice to UV rays, then tested some mice without the lotion and then with it. The lotions made the mice more likely to develop “non-melanoma skin cancer.”

HOLY JORGE! I use Eucerin…does that mean my huevo’s are going to look like hairless mice?
