Banana Boat Sunscreen Recall

You might want to check your sunscreen at home, it could be doing more harm than protection. The manufacturer of Banana Boat voluntarily recalled multiple batches of a hair and scalp sunscreen spray after an internal review found trace amounts of the cancer-causing chemical benzene.

A spokesperson from the company stated: “Importantly, no other batches of Hair & Scalp (either before or after the impacted production batches) and no other Banana Boat products are in the scope of this recall and may continue to be used by consumers safely and as intended…We are conducting this voluntary recall out of an abundance of caution.”

If you have a can of this at home, the recalled products had expiration dates for December 2022, February 2023, and April 2024. The affected products can also be identified by a lot code number found on the bottom of the can and checked here
