A popular brand is recalling their sunscreen after it was found the product did not prevent sunburn.

Two types of Bondi Sands zinc sunscreen "may not offer any protection at all" after it was found the fluid sunscreen had been splitting into layers.

"When this happens, the medicinal ingredients that prevent sunburn are not properly mixed and when applied, the products may not offer the same protection," the government recall body said.
