Sunscreen recalled
Sun lotion brand Sun Bum has recalled a product specifically for babies after low levels of benzene were found. On a website specifically for the recall, it said Sun Bum recently identified two lot codes of Baby Bum Mineral SPF50+ Lotion, AUST L 355134 supplied in Australia and New Zealand that potentially contained benzene levels above the allowable amount.
Health risks are very low. ‘‘It is not an ingredient in this product and may have been unintentionally introduced during the manufacturing process,’’ it said. It affected the 88mL, LOT# N1118B and LOT# N1118C EXP 04/2024, AUST L 355134 sold at pharmacy and speciality stores from August 2021 to April 2022.
