Product
Sun lotion
Brand
ViSola 20 and IONOVIT
Type / model
ViSola 20 Oxygen Sun Fluid, IONOVIT Sun Fluid.
Description
White, flat, plastic bottle, screw top with integrated dispenser and snap-on cap.
Risk
The product poses a risk of burns because the protection factor (UVB range) is much lower than the 20 indicated. The claim that the product "... provides protection for up to 8 hours (480 min) depending on skin type ..." is incorrect. Consumers relying on the protection factor indicated would be exposing themselves to both an acute risk of sunburn and the long-term consequences of excessive exposure to sunlight.
