Ombrelle Canada is recalling a variety of its spray sunscreen due to elevated levels of benzene which may pose serious health risks.

Health Canada says Ombrelle Garnier Complete Dry Mist Spray sunscreen, SPF 30 and SPF 60 are being recalled.

Benzene is a chemical found in car exhaust, second-hand smoke, and industrial emissions.

Frequent and long-term exposure through the skin or by inhalation to elevated levels of benzene may pose serious health risks including various forms of cancer such as leukemia, anemia, and bone marrow failure. These risks may increase when these products are used on children.

Immediate signs of exposure to elevated levels of benzene include drowsiness, dizziness, rapid or irregular heartbeat, and headaches.

Health Canada is monitoring the recall and says it will take appropriate action if additional safety concerns are identified.

Anyone with the recalled products should stop using them immediately and contact a health care professional if you have health concerns.
