We bought ****** **** Kids Spray Sunscreen. We applied the Product based on the instructions on the can. Within 15 mins we were burned pretty well. I contacted ****** ****. Submitted all the information they requested. Product ***, Product name and code with pictures. 2 weeks went by and I did a follow up. With a response of no further information and requested how much longer I should wait. With ZERO response. This is unacceptable that I am being ignored. This isn't something to brush off. The product did not work what I had purchased. It resulted in injury and pain. Being ignored by the company is completely unprofessional.Business response

Complaint #*********
Dear BBB,
We are in receipt of Complaint #*********, received on Monday, August 28, 2023, from Mr. ***** *****. Below is a summary of the interactions and our resolution to the complaint:
On July 23, 2023, Mr. ***** reached out to Edgewell and let us know he had sustained a sunburn after using one of our ****** **** products.
On July 24, 2023, Edgewell responded asking for more information about his experience, medical form (detailing exact details of the events, medications, and other relevant information to the events) and pictures of the product and impacted areas of the sunburn.
We did receive a response back the same day from Mr. ***** with photos of the product, but we have yet to receive the Medical Form detailing the events or images of the sunburns.
Mr. ***** did not request a refund at that time.
Our on-staff nurses reviewed the case based on the information available, determined there was no need to escalate further.
On August 12, 2023, Mr. ***** reached back out asking what was being done about this case.
On August 14, 2023, Edgewell responded letting Mr. ***** know all our products are uniquely formulated and rigorously tested to meet the claimed SPF as required by government regulated sunscreen standards and in compliance with these regulations. We also asked Mr. ***** to please clarify what additional information he was requesting.
We did not hear back from Mr. ***** after this correspondence.
On August 28, 2023, Edgewell reached back out to Mr. ***** and left a message. We have not heard back from Mr. *****. We issued a curtesy refund; he should receive in 7-10 days via mail.
Sincerely,
Heather K****
