Johnson & Johnson is recalling approximately 67,260 units of Neutrogena Acne Proofing and Deep Clean Purifying whipped foam cleansers because of a defect in the aerosol container. The products showed leakage, including bubbles and foaming, of both the propellant and the cleanser itself from the valve cup area of the can. Consumers should be aware that these aerosolized products were distributed nationwide in 5-ounce cans and holiday gift trays. If you own these products, you should contact a healthcare provider or pharmacist for guidance and return the product for a refund.
The defective container allows pressurized propellant and chemical cleanser to leak out of the valve area. This poses a risk of skin or eye irritation from unexpected contact with the leaking contents and may compromise the safety and integrity of the pressurized aerosol system.
