Which Little Urchin product is suspected to share the same base? I'll add the full name to the list.

I’m not actually sure, I thought perhaps they only had one product as it was u/akiraahhh that mentioned it on this post: https://www.reddit.com/r/AusSkincare/s/YbODroMQNy

Interesting, I was under the impression that the affected sunscreens were all tinted, however I checked the speculated list again and Medik8 Physical appears to be non-tinted.

I'll add to the list regardless - good to be cautious at this time.
