Johnson & Johnson has decided to recall several aerosol sunscreen products. In some cosmetics samples, a carcinogenic substance – benzene, was detected. The manufacturer informed that consumers should stop using the indicated products. The information was also transferred to distributors. What specific preparations have been withdrawn?
Low levels of benzene have been detected in some samples of protective cosmetics produced by Johnson & Johnson. This substance is classified as a carcinogen – it can potentially cause cancer, depending on the level and degree of exposure.
Johnson & Johnson is investigating the cause of this pollution. “Daily exposure to benzene in these products at the levels found in our tests will not have negative health consequences,” the company said.
The withdrawn aerosol filters are:
- Neutrogena Beach Defense
- Neutrogena Cool Dry Sport
- Neutrogena Invisible Daily defense
- Neutrogena Ultra Sheer
- Aveeno Protect + Refresh
Try a protective cream from the Canadian brand Indeed Labs, available on Medonet Market. The cosmetic provides sun protection, intense moisturizing, penetrating into the deep layers of the skin. The product meets high quality standards and is used by women all over the world.
Consumers who have used the indicated cosmetics should contact their physician if they have any doubts, questions or have encountered any health problems related to their use.
