CVS Pharmacy is halting sales of two store-brand after-sun products, shortly after Johnson & Johnson announced the recall of five of its sunscreens

Johnson & Johnson took the step after finding low levels of benzene, a cancer-causing chemical, in some samples.


“CVS Pharmacy is cooperating with Johnson & Johnson’s voluntary recall of certain Neutrogena and Aveeno sunscreen products,” Joe Goode, a CVS spokesman, said in an emailed statement to The New York Post.



J&J’s recall covers the..
Aveeno Protect + Refresh aerosol sunscreen, and four Neutrogena sunscreens:
Beach Defense aerosol sunscreen,
CoolDry Sport aerosol sunscreen,
Invisible Daily Defense aerosol sunscreen and
UltraSheer aerosol sunscreen.
The company said it had notified the FDA of the recall.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, benzene can cause leukaemia and other cancers after long-term exposure to high levels. J&J say the chemical is not an ingredient in the products and are investigating how it has come to be found there.

I use Banana Boat and the old favorite Coppertone. These are the only two I have ever used.
