Unilever recalls Dove, Tresemmé, other dry shampoos over presence of Benzene - Video

Unilever has recalled popular brands of aerosol dry shampoo, including Dove, after discovering they were contaminated with a chemical called benzene that can cause cancer.

The recall also covers brands such as Nexxus, Suave, Tresemmé and Tigi, which makes Rockaholic and Bed Head dry shampoos, according to a notice posted on the Food and Drug Administration's website Friday.

Unilever's recall pertains to products made prior to October 2021. The move once again raises questions about the safety of aerosols in personal-care products. In the past year and a half, a number of aerosol sunscreens have been pulled from shelves, such as Johnson & Johnson's Neutrogena, Edgewell Personal Care Co.'s Banana Boat and Beiersdorf AG's Coppertone along with spray-on antiperspirants like Procter & Gamble Co.'s Secret and Old Spice and Unilever's Suave.
