The 13 Worst-Skin Cities
The environmental aggressors in these towns could be damaging your skin
Before blowing your next paycheck at the derm's office or on pricey skin care products, take a closer look at the place you call home. We looked at pollution levels, sunshine and humidity averages, skin cancer, smoking rates, and even tanning salons per capita to determine which U.S. locales could be disastrous for your skin. Did your city make the list?

Sometimes I just want to go back to the good ole days when everyone tanned with iodine and baby oil, while outside smoking. I know. Yuk huh. Life was a lot more fun and nobody told you that your lifestyle was dangerous. I would hate to be a young person these days. kattail8

Ohhh brother - get over yourself - obviously this article was written Tongue in Cheek.. If you look at the blue text in many of the articles, they DO make some gratuitous suggestions (Ads!) on products that might be a good place to start.. Bottom line, you have to do some checking around to see what might work for You...

Being a resident of Cleveland Ohio...I am very resentful that of the the cities listed in this article...there are no recommendations for changing skin care...only for us to pack our bags and leave our city. Clevelanders are highly loyal to our hometown and can use without the jabs!!!
