Welcoming FDA’s addition of BEMT to the list of active sunscreen ingredients approved for use in the U.S., the first new active ingredient added to the OTC sunscreen monograph since 1999. As skin cancer remains the most common cancer in the U.S., this marks meaningful progress for innovation, adding to the existing selection of safe and effective sunscreen active ingredients already available in the U.S. Full statement: chpa.org/news/2026/06/chpa-w…

Did you know? The Durham-Humphrey Amendment helped shape today’s Rx-to-OTC switches and modern self-care system.
70 years later, we have an opportunity to better leverage that foundation to expand safe, effective self-care. Learn more: chpa.org/sites/default/files…

On #MelanomaMonday, we applaud Michigan for declaring May 2026 Skin Cancer Awareness Month—spotlighting prevention, protection & screenings. We encourage other states to continue this momentum by expanding common sense policies that will help more families take simple steps to reduce skin cancer risks. #WearSunscreen Learn more: healthinhand.org/sunscreen

A patchwork of state mandates raises costs and leaves consumers uncertain about what information to trust and which products are available. Thank you @RepLangworthy for raising the need for federal preemption for dietary supplements at yesterday's @HouseCommerce hearing. A single science-based national standard will provide the clarity, consistency, and consumer confidence Americans deserve.
