Frequently Asked Questions about coppertone sport clear tv spot, 'sunscreen haters'

Coppertone has issued a recall for five of its aerosol sunscreen products after finding benzene, a cancer-causing chemical, in some batches. The company says that daily exposure levels believed to be detected in the products likely would not cause "adverse health consequences" given modeling by regulatory agencies.

Coppertone® Issues Voluntary Nationwide Recall of Specific Lots of Pure & Simple SPF 50 Spray (2021 Launch), Sport Mineral SPF 50 Spray (2021 Launch), and Travel-Size Coppertone® Sport Spray SPF 50 (1.6OZ) Aerosols Sunscreen Sprays Due to the Presence of Benzene.

The Coppertone formula is an SPF 50, broad-spectrum lotion with only one active ingredient: zinc oxide. The Coppertone excelled in tests where mineral options normally fell short, namely in ease of application and sunscreen visibility. The lotion itself is thin enough that it applies smoothly to the skin.

This fragrance-free sunscreen offers a non-comedogenic formula that won't clog pores or cause breakouts - and it contains no oxybenzone, octinoxate, PABA, parabens, or dyes.

Given the risks posed by both the active and inactive ingredients, chemical sunscreens like Coppertone do not belong on our skin, in our bloodstream or in the environment. This is especially true if one has sensitive skin, eczema or is applying sunscreen to the little ones.

The suit alleges the Coppertone brand misled consumers, "by labeling, touting and marketing its products as being healthy, safe, pure and simple while knowing (and not disclosing) that the products contain benzene (or the risk of containing benzene)," the source stated.

UV Clear SPF 46 Face Sunscreen EltaMD UV Clear Broad-Spectrum SPF 46 is a go-to recommendation from Tiffany J. Libby, M.D., a board-certified dermatologist and the director of Mohs micrographic and dermatologic surgery at Brown Dermatology in East Providence, R.I.

“Based on the best current science and toxicology data, we continue to recommend sunscreens with the mineral active ingredients zinc oxide and titanium dioxide, because they are the only two ingredients the FDA recognized as safe or effective in their proposed draft rules,” Burns says.
