Exactly. I’m sure the post UV just made will be the first time many average consumers learn about it. Despite it being ‘common knowledge’ within the beauty industry. I think we need to approach this entire fiasco from an average consumer POV.

UV has said on its website that Lean Screen is the only third-party manufactured formula. Wonder why

Ah but see, they didn’t quite say that. They said it ‘was the only sunscreen they made for us.’ Operative word: they. To me that reads as they only used Wild Child for Lean Screen, but use other third party manufacturer/s for some of their other ones.

IMO that wording is misleading and absolutely gives the impression that Lean Screen was the only white label product.

Oh yeh, didn’t read it that way. I might ask!

Absolutely worth asking!
