So, basically I received a generic response that they send to anyone who complains about their products and they are just going to wash the problem under the rug. I am so pissed that I put sunscreen on my LO, I don't even know how to respond. I could care less about the refund, they need to fix the problem so another unsuspecting mother doesn't make the same mistake.
DO NOT BUY AVEENO BABY SUNBLOCK!!!!

Re: F/U to Aveeno Sunblock Letter
I was going to suggest this as well! Bring it to public attention and they will be forced to pay attention to the issue!

TTC since May 2006. After 3 failed Clomid cycles, 2 failed Injectibles/IUIs, 2 failed IVFs and 1 failed FET, we moved on to adoption!
Last ditch FET resulted in BFP, and identical twin girls!

Some of the chemicals in sunscreens are chemical blockers and not safe for babies/infants. (See post here: https://community.thebump.com/cs/ks/forums/1/35113032/ShowThread.aspx
You want sunblock that uses physical blockers as their main active ingredients like zinc oxide and titanium dioxide. It still absorbs into their skin but works in a different way than the chemical blockers do.
