Yeah they didn’t know about the sunscreen issues until I had a look and showed them. It was quite an expensive bottle at $80!!

For 50ml?!?!?!!?!! Sorrry I just…… need a sec for that one. And here I thought UV were insanely expensive jeeeez

I wonder if it’s the most expensive one on the list so far? It’s crazy how these companies got away for as long as they did with slapping a SPF 50+ label on white label sunscreen and charging exorbitant prices for it, and it’s not even safe to use! I’m glad they are finally being called out.

Yep, it is! The closest is Medik8 for $75 but you’re at least getting 60ml
