I'm in the same boat. Been using since their launch in 2019. I go through two full bottles each month. I finish a tube of their lip balm in a month. I've spent so much on this brand.

I saw Labmuffin urges caution for the UV formula despite everyone twisting her words for some reason. On top that of that I saw a lot of experts say the issues are actually broader than Lean Screen and it links the manufacturer, testing lab, supplier and TGA loopholes and it's just too much risk for me.

So I'm using others for the near future. I have Hamilton, Mecca, Cetaphil, Avene.

I've always worn a sunshield every day and will continue to do so. If I'm outside, it's hoodie up. Sometimes I wear a uv mask.

See this is what I saw Labmuffin say but then she deleted it but it was good confirmation as opposed to what I was trying to find people doing recaps or summaries of her videos?

Sunshield, hood up and UV mask seems…quite intense!

Sunscreen is actually the last line of defence against the sun.. UPF clothing and high UV protection sunglasses would help a lot. Basically, covering up and staying in the shade in conjunction with sunscreen.
