According to its website, the Honest Company is now sold out of their SPF 30 protectant, which is labeled to be effective for “up to 80 minutes”.
Dr. Debra Wattenberg, a New York City dermatologist at NY Skin Rx, says the FDA does not test the effectiveness of sunscreens – that’s up to the company.
On Costco’s website, where The Honest Company sunscreens are sold, the product received an overall rating of two and a half stars with polarizing reviews from 57 users so far. I was raging, ‘ mum Gretta Stabler told US chat show NBC 5 Chicago about her 6-year-old daughter after using the sun cream. The company says it added other ingredients instead.
While some folks might be afraid of chemicals in sunscreen, Bodemer stresses that everyone should “absolutely” use a sunscreen because the risk of UV rays is much greater than any risk posed by chemicals in the products.
“I’ve tried dozens of different sunscreens and words can’t come close to describing how bad this product compares even to the cheapest stuff you find at discount stores”, one customer writes on Amazon.
Jessica Alba’s The Honest Company is in a bit of trouble after the internet exploded on Friday with customer complaints claiming that Honest’s sunscreen SPF 30 didn’t work properly. First, the product applies like a layer of grease – imagine putting melted butter on your skin. A lot of people posted pictures of the “war wounds”, proving that the product really is incapable of providing appropriate protection from the Sunday. After applying it liberally every hour, my baby girl is burnt.
In spite of the grisly sound of some of the components, the final product will be smooth and 100 percent transparent, Bulone assures Aussies, many of whom love to sunbathe at Gold Coast and other beaches.

“The Honest Company is committed to providing safe and effective products and take all consumer feedback very seriously”. It noted that its Sunscreen Lotion was tested by a third party against the United States Food & Drug Administration’s (FDA) protocol for over-the-counter (OTC) sunscreens.
