Executive Summary
HAWAIIAN TROPIC, NO-AD KIDS SUNBLOCK SPFs FAIL TO MATCH LABELING based on tests performed by Consumers Union and published in the May issue of the not-for-profit group's Consumer Reports. "Two SPF 30 lotions for children fell far short of what's on the label: No-Ad Kids Sunblock and Hawaiian Tropic Just for Kids delivered only about SPF 20 when first applied and only SPF 13 after" subjects bathed in water. Therefore, "we've rated both `Not Acceptable,'" the independent consumer publication states.
