U.S. health officials are asking retailers to pull a small number of acne creams from their store shelves after government testing found they contain slightly elevated levels of a chemical associated with cancer.

Some acne treatments from brands including Walgreens, Proactiv and La-Roche Posay have been voluntarily recalled for containing elevated levels of the carcinogen benzene, the Food and Drug Administration announced Tuesday.

The FDA is warning consumers about a recall involving 95 acne products containing benzoyl peroxide due to benzene contamination.

The FDA said the products are being recalled for "possible benzene contamination." Top Democrat Schumer backs Republican spending bill to avert shutdown Egg prices are rapidly falling so far in March
