0:00Usually during the summer, you can find
0:02me by a body of water of some kind. And
0:05usually I'm pretty strict about
0:07sunscreen, even when it's cloudy out.
0:10But I might be in a growing minority
0:13about that. More and more young people
0:15are tanning without sun protection in an
0:17effort to get as dark as they possibly
0:19can. Elle's Katie Berone told me all
0:22about this dangerous trend on the latest
0:24episode of my podcast Explain It to Me.
0:27Basically, tan maxing is when people try
0:30to get as tan as they possibly can in
0:33the most optimized way. That means
0:35they'll do stuff like look at the UV
0:37index and go outside when it's at a 10,
0:40which is really, really high. And if
0:43you're concerned about the sun and what
0:46it can do to your skin, that's the last
0:48time you want to be outside, let alone
0:51using the tanning products that Katie
0:53says are getting more and more popular.
0:55>> I think that there is this certain
0:58degree of nihilism of like, "Oh, well,
1:00the world is
1:01bad anyway, why wouldn't I just also get
1:04a tan?" And I also think that to a
1:07certain extent, you know, [music] I and
1:09I don't know how many people would say
1:10that they're necessarily inspired by the
1:14Trump administration or something like
1:15that, [music] but we do see in the
1:18culture right now kind of this turn
1:21against medicine and vaccines and trust
1:25in science, and I do think there are
1:28people online that are taking that and
1:29also saying that they don't trust
1:31sunscreen. They think that chemicals in
1:33sunscreen are bad for you.
1:35>> To find out why tanning is back and to
1:37learn more about a sunscreen that's
1:39changing the game here in the US, check
