Sunscreens at Woolworths

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

23 sunscreens on Woolworths’s website match an entry on the register: the same brand, and the same UV filters in the same amounts as Woolworths’s own ingredient list. 16 of them list homosalate. The names below are the register’s; each product page gives Woolworths’s name for it. We matched them on 21 October 2026; ranges change, so check the pack.
