- Ukusetyenziswa kwe-sunscreen kubalulekile kwimpilo yoluntu kunye nokuthintela umhlaza wolusu.
- Izikhuseli zelanga ezikhunjulwayo zifakwe kwiitoti ze-aerosol kwaye zasasazwa kwilizwe liphela.
- Abathengi kufuneka bayeke ukusebenzisa iimveliso ezichaphazelekayo kwaye bazilahle okanye bazibuyise.
The ISebe lezeMpilo laseHawaii (DOH) ilumkisa abahlali neendwendwe ukuba UJohnson & Johnson Consumer Inc. (JJCI) ikhumbula ngokuzithandela zonke iindlela ezintlanu ze-NEUTROGENA® kunye ne-AVEENO® yeerosol yemveliso yelanga. Ukuvavanywa kwenkampani kuchonge amanqanaba asezantsi e-benzene kwezinye iisampulu zeemveliso. Abathengi kufuneka bayeke ukusebenzisa iimveliso ezichaphazelekayo kwaye bazilahle okanye bazibuyise.
Iimveliso ezikhunjulwayo zitshiza kwiscreen, ngokukodwa:
- I-NEUTROGENA yoKhuselo loLwandle i-aerosol yescreen yelanga.
- I-NEUTROGENA I-aerosol ye-sunscreen epholileyo.

- I-NEUTROGENA I-Ultra Sheer i-aerosol yescreen yelanga.
- I-AVEENO Khusela + Hlaziya kwakhona i-aerosol sunscreen.
Izikhuseli zelanga ezikhunjulwayo zifakwe kwiitoti ze-aerosol kwaye zasasazwa kwilizwe liphela, kubandakanya iHawaii, ngeentlobo ngeentlobo zabathengisi. Izithsaba-mlilo ezintathu ezichaphazelekayo ziqulathe i-oxybenzone kunye / okanye i-octinoxate, izithako ezingavunyelwanga ukuba zithengiswe okanye zisasazwe eHawaii phantsi kwecandelo le-11-342D-21, i-Hawaii Revised Statute, eyaqala ukusebenza ngoJanuwari 2021.
I-Benzene, imichiza efumaneka kwi-sunscreens echaphazelekayo, ixhaphake kwindalo esingqongileyo kubandakanya ukukhutshwa kweemoto kunye nomsi wecuba, kwaye iyaziwa ukuba ibangela umhlaza ebantwini. I-Benzene ayisosithako kwimveliso ye-sunscreen kwaye amanqanaba e-benzene afunyenwe kwiimveliso ezikhunjulwayo ayephantsi. Ngokusekwe kulwazi lwangoku, ukubhencwa imihla ngemihla kwi-benzene kwezi mveliso ze-sunscreen akunakulindeleka ukuba kubangele iziphumo ezibi empilweni. Nangona kunjalo, ezi mveliso ziyakhunjulwa ukuthintela ukuvezwa ngakumbi. I-JJCI iphanda unobangela wosuleleko olukhokelele kubukho be-benzene kwiimveliso zabo.
Ukusetyenziswa kwe-sunscreen kubalulekile kwimpilo yoluntu kunye nokuthintela umhlaza wolusu. Abantu kufuneka baqhubeke nokuthatha amanyathelo afanelekileyo okhuseleko elangeni kubandakanya ukusebenzisa i-sunscreen ekhuselekileyo, ukugubungela ulusu ngempahla kunye neminqwazi, kunye nokuthintela ilanga ngexesha leeyure eziphezulu.

- Benzene is not an ingredient in sunscreen products and the levels of benzene found in the recalled products was low.
- JJCI is investigating the possible cause of contamination that led to the presence of benzene in their products.
