    The product, in the report: Sun Squad Bubble Solution from Target. 1 gallon container

    My 3.5 yr old daughter was using a bubble gun to blow Targets Sun Squad Bubble Solution. The bubble solution leaked out of the gun covering the outside of her hands for approx 10 minutes or less. The outside of her hands and wrists / forearms turned bright red where the solution touched her skin. She started crying and saying that her hands hurt. I had her wash her hands with cool water but the redness did not subside. Her hands grew hotter and more red for the next couple hours. I called the doctor and originally we treated it as an allergic reaction. The next day her hands forearms were still red and the redness lasted 3 days eventually turning into a raised scabby / dry area. The doctor on the second day decided that it was not an allergic reaction and treated us for a chemical burn. I tested the PH of the bubble solution and it was lower than 5.5 which was as low as the PH paper would go. Today I got a PH reader that goes 0-14 and the reading came back at 4.88. The bubble solution bottle does not list any ingredients. When I went online to check the product details there are also no ingredients listed. This was very concerning when we were worried about an allergic reaction. There were however other burried review that showed other kids having burning reactions on their skin. Target did not post my review of this product with pictures of my child’s burned hands.
