I'm not surprised that the stuff caught fire, but I bet he was! I stopped smearing these type of sunscreen products on my daughter after I found out from a lifeguard that they are also the best way to remove beach tar from your feet.

There are a couple of really good all natural sunscreens that work even better then the chemical based stuff that don't have alcohol in them ...Sunology and Ecco are two I found.
