I hope you have found your answer for this. If not, this is what I have found:
"Bummer: Was expecting 4 entries in the products table. There's only 3."
The challenge specifically points out that the 'id' column auto-increments (this is in all 3 tasks). If you try and put in a value for the 'id' column for your query, this error is likely to happen if it the 'id' already exists within the table.
You can resolve this by: use a different value for 'id', or use NULL (which I believe is intended for this).

INSERT INTO products (id, name, description, price) VALUES (NULL, lipbalm, lanolin, 15.99);
