I like the products from the Honest Company and keep seeing ads for a free trial of Honest Beauty products. Has anyone tried these? If so, did you like them? Which products do you use?

I refuse to purchase anything from Honest. They seem to have a problem with actual honesty; there have been several issues with their products not being what they claim to be.

Do you have sources or examples? I typically buy the products that have good ratings on EWG but I am not sure if the honest beauty products are on there yet. |

Although I am not familiar with the products at all, when a company uses a term like honesty in their name I am instantly skeptical. If you have to tell me you're honest instead of just, ya know, just being honest I cant believe their claims. lol. It's funny how that can work, eh? |

I'm on my phone but I'll provide some later. There have been issues with their sunscreen and recalls on a few of their products you should be able to find through Google. Most recently, I was researching prenatal vitamins and theirs seem not to include the ingredients they claim they do. Check out the Amazon reviews for Honest prenatals. |

Ok, thanks. The sunscreen has good ratings on ewg. I wonder if they have changed the formulation?

I looked at Honest products (specifically beauty products) awhile back and there were definitely some red flags re: ingredients in some of products that are restricted in Canada. Not all of their products are toxin free and I would definitely think twice.
Edited: I also recall the sunscreen having a big issue...and something else from the baby care line (though I dont recall what exactly).

Here are links to a couple of sources with information about some of the accusations against The Honest Company: Lawsuits against HonestMore InfoIt seems like most of the accusations against Honest involve deceptive advertising and labeling. I do not buy anything from this brand because I don't believe they're trustworthy. |

Another board I'm on repeatedly shows how the EWG generally promotes who pays for ratings. I haven't dug into it much, but if you cite the EWG you are basically ignored
