Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Body Mist Sunscreen Spray SPF 50+ (aerosol sunscreen), has been recalled because benzene has been detected in some batches.
Johnson & Johnson Pacific Pty Ltd is recalling all batches of Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Body Mist Sunscreen Spray SPF 50+ (aerosol sunscreen), AUST L 202301, because benzene has been detected in some batches in Australia.
All batches with an expiry date of 30th August 2023 or earlier should not be used.
Benzene is a human carcinogen. It is not an ingredient in this sunscreen but is sometimes used in the manufacturing process. The TGA requires a benzene limit below a concentration of 2 parts per million. Johnson & Johnson detected benzene at concentrations less than 3 ppm in two of 17 batches supplied in Australia.
