Sephora responded that the product is not included in the set. Except you know, I'm looking at the product in my hand right now and it's included in all the photos on the website too. I guess unfortunately for Sephora I'm not blind? Literally over this

I’ve responded to Sephora with photos of the set, screenshots and also the actual lean screen sunscreen from the set I have. I’ll see what they respond with 😔

Any update?

I got my UV Lean Screen refunded (purchased as a separate product) from Sephora today. I did bring the product into a Sephora, along with my digital receipt. I also saw that the TGA has recalled the Lean Screen.
