Yes, MCoBeauty sunscreens are generally well-regarded as affordable, multi-functional options, though performance depends heavily on your skin type and whether you wear makeup.

- What it does: Functions as a chemical sunscreen, hydrating moisturizer (infused with vegan collagen), and makeup primer. - The vibe: Lightweight, non-greasy, and leaves no white cast. - The catch: Some users note that it wears beautifully on its own or under certain foundations, while others experience slight pilling depending on their skincare or base products.

- What it does: Clear gel serums and mists providing SPF 50+ broad-spectrum protection with a luminous, "glass-skin" finish. - The catch: Can feel quite oily or dewy upon initial application, making them great for dry skin, less ideal if you prefer a true matte look.

Mineral Mattifying Sunscreen SPF50+

- What it does: A mineral-based option rated well for dry and sensitive skin types, providing a matte finish. - The catch: Mineral formulas are naturally thicker and take a bit more effort to blend in compared to the chemical invisible range.

As of 1 November 2026, Australia has had several sunscreen recalls, including products recalled because they may not provide the SPF 50+ protection stated on their labels.

The recalls have involved two main issues\:

1. Lower-than-claimed SPF protection - testing raised concerns that some sunscreens might offer considerably less sun protection than advertised. 2. Product separation - some zinc sunscreens may separate, meaning their ingredients are no longer evenly mixed and their protection may be affected.

Here are the products identified in the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) recall notices.

## 1\. Sunscreens recalled over SPF concerns

The following brands and products have been included in the TGA's multiple-sunscreen recall\:

- Ultra Violette - Lean Screen SPF 50+ - Aspect Sun - Physical Sun Protection SPF 50+ - Aspect Sun - Tinted Physical SPF 50+ - Aesthetics Rx - Ultra Protection Sunscreen SPF 50+ - People4Ocean - Mineral Bioactive Shield SPF 50+ - MCoBeauty - Mineral Mattifying Sunscreen SPF 50+ - Beauti-FLTR - Lustre Mineral SPF 50+ - Good Vibes - Daily Face Cream SPF 50+ - Found My Skin - Tinted Face/Body Cream SPF 50+ - We Are Feel Good Inc - Mineral Sunscreen SPF 50+ - The Fountain of Youth - Environmental Defence Cream SPF 50+ - Ethical Zinc - Daily Wear Light SPF 50+ - Ethical Zinc - Daily Wear Tinted Facial Sunscreen (Light and Dark) - Endota - Mineral Protect SPF 50+ - Allganic - Light Sunscreen SPF 50+ - Naked Sundays - Collagen Glow 100% Mineral Sunscreen SPF 50+

## 3\. What should you do?

- Check the exact product name and batch number on your sunscreen. - If it is an affected batch, stop using it. - Contact the retailer or manufacturer for a refund or replacement. - Don't assume a sunscreen is safe just because it belongs to a brand not listed above.
