What is this? This is a baby sunscreen cream that claims to have a high SPF 50. SPF tells you how well it protects your skin from the sun.

What's happening? Tests show this sunscreen does not give the SPF level it says on the label. This means it may not protect your baby’s skin well enough from the sun.

Does this affect me? If you live in Austria and have used this sunscreen on a baby, your child may be at risk of sunburn or long-term skin damage.

What should I do? Stop using the product right away. Ask your pharmacist or doctor for advice on safe sunscreen for your baby.
