Consumer NZ is calling for manufacturers to regularly test their sunscreens after two more failed to meet the claims on their labels, a new survey found. Source: istock.com
Consumer NZ s latest test found two further sunscreens had failed to meet its claims, including Neutrogena Beach Defence Water + Sun Barrier Lotion Sunscreen, which failed to meet its SPF claim and the requirements needed to make a broad-spectrum claim. A second bottle of the sunscreen was sent to a second accredited lab by Consumer NZ, which also found it failed to meet its SPF claim.
Hamilton Active Family Sunscreen SPF50+ also failed to meet its SPF claim, returning an SPF of 50, which is below the SPF 60 required to make a 50+ claim. Testing of a second bottle of the sunscreen at a second lab also found it failed to meet its claim.

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. Pharmacies across Missouri will begin receiving prioritized shipments of the COVID-19 vaccine through a new State Pharmacy Program.
With vaccine supply continuing to increase and more Missourians becoming eligible, we will now begin shipping vaccines to pharmacies in all regions and communities throughout the state, said Gov. Mike Parson said during Thursdays COVID-19 briefing. Local pharmacies are a trusted health care resource for many Missourians, so distributing vaccines to as many pharmacies as we can will help expand accessibility by providing a vast network of capable providers in every community.
Starting next week, 15 percent of Missouri s weekly vaccine allotment from the federal government will be allocated to the state s pharmacy program.
