SAN ANTONIO - A brand of sunscreen is being recalled for doing exactly the opposite of what it's supposed to do.

The maker of Banana Boat Sunscreen is recalling one of its spray-on products because it can ignite when exposed to open flame.

Energizer Holdings said there have been reports that a handful of people have caught on fire after applying the lotion.

Nearly two dozen formulations of Ultramist have been pulled from store shelves.

Consumers who purchased the products are being told not to use them.

More information is available from the manufacturer at 1-800-SAFESUN.
