Severe burn/allergic reaction: Kids 50+ sunscreen
Just an FYI - I been burnt & had a severe reaction to Cancer Council Kids 50+ sunscreen. Face red/purple, radiating heat, itch lasting 4 days. Second time it's happened - the reaction is delayed & I didn't realise the cause the first time around.
My pharmacist suspects a reaction to camphor (4-methylbenzylidene camphor) and told me to lodge a complaint with the company & TGA as they're currently reviewing this product. Others have had this reaction too.
Other people might not have a reaction to this but thought I might do a quick post as the reaction is delayed - I had no clue what was happening the first time around.
**NOTE: I understand there's other problems associated with this ingredient but my post is only about my physical reaction & not trying to lay blame.**
