Many people in Australia use sunscreen to protect their skin from the sun. They think sunscreen will stop them from getting skin cancer. But some people found out that their sunscreen did not work well, even when they used it every day.

A group tested many sunscreens in Australia. They found that many sunscreens did not give the protection they promised. Some big brands said their sunscreen was good, but the tests showed it was not true. This made many people feel angry and worried.

Now, the government is checking these sunscreens. Experts say people should still use sunscreen, but they should also wear hats and clothes to protect their skin. It is important to use enough sunscreen and put it on again every two hours, especially after swimming or sweating.
