EWG is not credible - they are funded with the purpose of driving sales to pseudo-scientific marketed brands, using fear tactics and often suggesting you be afraid to buy from brands without conclusive reasoning.
They have inconsistent classifications (they grade same ingredients at different alert levels per product based on an opaque editorial staff) and they generate revenue from articles that are intentionally contrarian, often asserting unproven "health" claims in favor of some products and skeptical of others in ways that contradict the scientific information we have. It conveniently attracts high clicks to drop these shocking revelations that "you may not want to use these " with no clear consensus about why.
They accept money from brands as a primary source of their funding, addressing topics in a manner that is favorable to the brands. They have a pay-based label certification they sell to companies, which incentivizes EWG to promote specific product categories that can then be certified.
Many science professionals and groups have rebuked their low-information tactics and industry/political ties. I suggest doing a search, but they are influential for anything BUT unbiased information. They are motivated by funding to leverage product characteristics that are not scientific.
This sunscreen has Oxybenzone in it. There's been concerns with this specific chemical. But it also has other chemicals at levels much higher than what is considered safe in Europe according to their research.
Looks like UC Berkeley was involved in the studies so you know some intelligent people were involved. This site is full of uneducated folk known to mock CA for stating compounds are carcinogenic. Most of them have no idea what is involved in the studies and probably would not be able to comprehend the studies if they read them.

I stopped buying Neutrogena Sunscreen after that massive recall a couple of years ago because of benzene compounds contaminating their sunscreen. It was a massive hassle to return and get a refund for all the sunscreen I bought. On top of that my kids were using the sunscreen daily until the recall.
No thanks. Now I stick with a known brand like Banana Boat
The benzene report was less than a year ago and almost entirely tied to aerosol sunscreens, including several Banana Boat sunscreens. But many Neutrogena and Banana Boat sunscreens tested had no benzene, like any other brands tested. You can check the list online - none of the large brands in the report were all benzene-free.
Regulatory levels are influenced by industry interests (and political agendas)
Part of the decision-making process is that any sunscreen helps prevent skin cancer. But the FDA does not require a direct risk/benefit comparison of physical block vs. chemical block sunscreens, with backup research studies of both options based on actual use. However, there is plenty of other evidence out there that physical block sunscreens are the much better option.
They provided tons of data at the time of initial approval and when monographs are generated for said raw materials.
There is inherent risk with any drug otc or prescription, they are just low hopefully. The fda is supposed to be fact based, but there are politics. Even at companies they will do risk assessment and make a decision to release or trash based on internal scientific data and how much impact that problem may cause to the end user and the business. I have been doing the science for a while for products shipped globally and have seen it. All the bezones have plenty of data, I'm not saying it's the best approach but it is a common one. I wear sun screen it's fine. I also don't go shirtless at the pool because less sunscreen is better. The sunscreen guy sells drugs the fda regulates drugs at some point you'll need the end user to take some liability for their own situation, info is easy to get these days. This isn't the early 1900s when people were licking uraniam or cough syrup had antifreeze as a sweetner.
I'm not replying only to you, but to all the posters crapping on the deal..If you're not interested in the deal, move on.
I disagree - I've seen others complain (and I've never agreed with them) when people post various kinds of information backing up their position that a post deal really isn't a deal, in their opinion.
In this case, relevant safety information is valuable to deciding whether a given person considers it a good deal. What a given person does with the information is up to them.
I'm actually considering going for other products tomorrow, so might as well also get free stuff.
Idk how to use circle in-store though, what I got to do like show my phone or use my email at checkout? Maybe I should add phone number to my account.
Show them the barcode located under Wallet in the app. Make sure you add the $2 coupon first. I redeemed this in the past and it was not worth the time. I order a couple of these from Walgreens with free shipping a couple of weeks ago. Now the coupon disappeared and free shipping is over.

Thanks, yeah found same info in the FAQ. A bit upsetting can't screenshot the barcode, can't trust data out all the time. I'll probably add phone number and verify it, just in case since apparently you can enter the number at checkout if you don't have the barcode.
I'm trying to figure out requirements for $15 GC / $50 promo. An online pickup order somehow only requires $49 worth of qualifying items to qualify for the $15 GC. Now I'm trying to determine if that applies to coupon discounts total before OR after the discount, so like Puffs facial tissue has $1 off in-store only coupon. Now if I buy $50.72 cents (pretax, over $50 just in case $49 thing is online only bug) in-store BUT then with that MFC $1 off, will that make my 'total' fall under $50 so I no longer qualify for the $15 GC?

Agreed. Can't stand the complainers that people shouldn't crap on a deal. There are pros and cons to every deal which are important to consider. Do you only want people who like a deal to comment? In reality, the negative Amazon and yelp reviews are way more important than the 5 star comments.
Same with me today. Went to a Target location that had binful in stock. But when doing self-checkout and scanning Target Circle barcode, nothing was taken off. Workers couldn't figure out why and started making excuses like trial sizes not applicable for coupon. Another one said minimum of $2 required so needed to buy 2 to redeem coupon. Terms didn't mention it so gave up when employees made up reasons instead of helping out.
Yes, and many people litter their plastic bottles nowhere near an ocean as well. But yet, in some strange way, they eventually end up there. Weird how that works.
It didn't work for me. Show the wallet barcode during checkout, and nothing came off. Went To customer service, and they couldn't make it work either.
☹️
Worked fine for me. I purchased a couple of other things also though, so maybe you need to have something else in the order for it to kick in because otherwise it would be a negative transaction and perhaps the system won't allow it.

I'll have to see in-store tomorrow.
