So. Don't put on sunscreen, burn because of the sun; put on sunscreen, burn because of the sunscreen.
Banana Boat maker recalls spray-on sunscreen because of fire risk
Associated Press
October 19, 2012, 2:36 p.m.
The maker of Banana Boat sunscreen is recalling some of its spray-on products after reports that a handful of people have caught on fire after applying the lotion and coming in contact with an open flame.
Energizer Holdings said Friday that it is pulling 23 varieties of Banana Boat UltraMist sunscreen off store shelves because of the risk of the lotion igniting when exposed to fire.
The recall includes aerosol products like UltraMist Sport, UltraMist Ultra Defense and UltraMist Kids.
A company spokesman said there have been five reports of people suffering burns after using the sunscreen in the last year. Four burn cases were reported in the U.S. and one in Canada.
More than 20 million units have been sold since Banana Boat UltraMist launched in 2010, the spokesman said.
