Many Americans are opting to go without sunscreen this summer, according to a new poll released Friday.

A new study released by the Marist Institute for Public Opinion found that only one-fifth of Americans wear sunscreen before going outside most days during the summer. The poll also found that just under one-third apply it even a few days during the season.

Despite the scientific proof of sunscreens roll in preventing skin cancer, about 40 percent of Americans never apply sunscreen at all before going out, and only 9 percent wear it everyday.

The study polled 1,004 people.
