Keep using sunscreen. The TGA says its benefits far outweigh any risks, and nothing here says a product is unsafe: the limits are proposals.

Against the TGA’s proposed limits

This sunscreen lists none of the three filters under review (homosalate, oxybenzone and 4-MBC), so none of the proposed limits would apply to it.

Where this comes from

Everything above is from this product’s entry on the Australian Register of Therapeutic Goods: ARTG 297074, SkinCeuticals Ultra Facial Defense Lotion SPF50+. We read its public summary on 21 October 2026. The name on the shelf can differ from the register’s. If the label shows a different AUST L number, it’s a different formula. Spotted a mistake?
