SUNSCREENS THAT CAN CAUSE CANCER YOU NEED TO AVOID

Hi guys, so y'all already know that I'm such a huge fan of sunscreens. I mean I can't talk about skin care without mentioning sunscreen; but the truth is that not all sunscreens are safe to use. One of the most dangerous chemicals to look out for in a sunscreen, is Benzene! Sadly, most of these products won't list Benzene as part of the ingredients.

Exposure to Benzene can cause irritation, and blisters on the skin, and when ingested, can lead to death! Recently, a top skin care brand JOHNSON & JOHNSON recalled five of their sunscreens because they found traces of this cancer causing chemical in them. These were spray sunscreens - though I'm not a fan of, but my husband had one of them. Thankfully, he hasn't used it for long.

They found this chemical after testing the products in the lab, and according to them, they are investigating to know how these products were contaminated. But for now, they've asked everyone to stop using them, and if you're in possession of one, you can call them for a refund on their customer care line 1-800-458-1673.

These products were all packaged in aerosol cans, and they are

1. Aveeno Protect + Refresh aerosol sunscreen




2. Four Neutrogena sunscreen versions:

*Beach Defense aerosol sunscreen




*CoolDry Sport aerosol sunscreen




*Invisible Daily Defense aerosol sunscreen,



and

*UltraSheer aerosol sunscreen





This recall includes all can sizes, and all levels of SPF(Sun Protection Factor).


I attached pictures to help you guys confirm if you have any of these products. If you do, please discard immediately.

Take care, and stay safe!
