June 17, 2024 — Suntegrity Skincare has recalled Suntegrity Impeccable Skin Sunscreen Foundation due to a risk of infections.
The product developed a higher than acceptable microbiological mold count (Species: Aspergillus Sydowii) in some tubes of Lot 115BU. The mold developed over time, according to the tests.
As a precaution, Suntegrity Skincare also recalled Lots 107IV, 107NU, 109NU, 117BU, 113SA, 114SA, 106BR, and 101MO.
The product is labeled to prevent sunburns and it is packaged in 2-ounce orange tubes. It was sold nationwide online and in retail stores.
Suntegrity warned that if a product is contaminated with Aspergillus Sydowii, it could potentially cause an allergic skin reaction and related symptoms.
According to the recall, there is also a risk of fungal skin infections or eye infections: “It could also cause a primary fungal skin infection if used on open wounds or sunburned skin. If it is introduced into the eye, eye infections may occur.”
Patients who are immunocompromised should get medical attention if they develop a primary skin infection.
