When it was first reported that model Gisele Bundchen had referred to sunscreen as "poison" at a press conference promoting her natural skin-care line Sejaa in Sao Paulo, Brazil, angry reactions erupted from dermatologists and fans around the world.But now, Bundchen's camp claims the incident was based on a false translation of what the supermodel actually said.
Bundchen's publicist contacted StyleList to clarify the comments, saying that Bundchen wouldn't advise anyone to skip out on his or her UV protection.
"Gisele would never say not to use sunscreen because she has had family members who have had skin cancer. She simply stated that her all-natural skin-care line does not have SPF because there is not an all natural SPF available," publicist Amber Clapp told StyleList.
"When using sunscreens, she selects ones that are free of parabens, oxybenzone, PABA and retinyl palmitate," added Clapp.

You are so correct. Wonder how that natural skin care line works on shoe leather since that's what her skin will be like in a few years with all her sunning.
What is this like the fourth time she has opened her mouth this year and stupidity came out. Some people really need to keep their mouths shut, so they don't keep sounding ignorant.
Is this article really news worthy?

And you think you are going to find NEWS on Popeater?
This is a celebrity gossip site, not a news site.
What would this third world bimbo know about dermatology? She ought to use some sunscreen herself since she looks much older than she really is. No wonder she had made it a rule not many years ago that she would not be photographed with younger models. She looks like a Louis Vuitton bag!

I believe alot has to do with genetics and what you put and do to your body..I am 51 and I did tan as a teenager and still like to go to the beach..I am not religious about sunscreen and I don't have a wrinkle on my face..I think I have to thank my parents for that..I don't smoke which I think ages you more than the sun..What will I look like at 70, I don't know..Have to make it there first..

Love the sun, but always had to wear sun hats, because I got heatstrokes real easy. Always wanted a tan,today I am glad, I had to wear a hat. I am in my sixties and my daughter ask me, wonder why your skin is still so good. I guess it helped to wear a hat or stay out of the sun all together.
looks like her husbands football.lmao.

I guess, they wanted some of the money back she made with them. Giselle is like Gwyneth, starting to get on my nerves, with all her suggestions.

These are poisons that creep into our skins

She has to blame somethingon her ugly face. Whoever called and promoted her as a supermodel is crazy. Shes nothing more than an older version of Heidi Klum, and from what ive heard Heidi is 55.
Angie Everheart,Charlize Theron,Sienna Miller,Leighton Meester, thats beauty.

I am with you, Gisele. I grew up in a VERY hot climate and never heard of anyone suffering from skin cancer. Of course, all of the chemicals from SPF creams are poisons or do you really think, people it is made from natural stuff? Do the research and you would be amazed at how fast that stuff gets absorbed into your bloodstream and what it does to you.Wake up! Why do you,people trust scientists so blindly? If the product is on the shelves of CVS it doesn't mean it's a safe to use.If your skin is sensitive, stay home when it's too hot outside or just wear a protective clothes.

If she can show me her phD, then I'll believe her. Until then, her intelligence is a joke. She should stfu when she doesn't really know what she is talking about.

The very fact that all sunscreens block Vitamin D from being taken in by the skin is bad for you . Nice try , Gisele .

Gisele is an idiot. She proved that the second she opened her big mouth. Anyone with a brain only looks at her - don't listen. You will have skin cancer.

Gisele should never talk.
