Planning a vacation in the sun? Be careful what sunscreen you decide to use!
Three batches of Banana Boat sunscreen sprays are being recalled, due to the presence of a cancer-causing chemical.
The company says traces of benzene were found in samples. Benzene is a carcinogen that can lead to leukemia and other blood diseases.
The recall applies to 6oz containers of Banana Boat Hair & Scalp Spray SPF 30. The expiration date on the bottom of the can will be either December 2022, February 2023, or April 2024.
