UV Filters + Why International Sunscreens Are Better Than American Sunscreens
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 26 сен 2024
- I've mentioned it frequently on my channel: I prefer #AsianSunscreens because the #UV technology utilized abroad exceedingly outperforms the filters we're able to utilize here in the states. In today's video, I'm breaking down the tea on the different types of filters and explaining each of the filters themselves individually, explaining why some filters are better than others and what you should consider when you're looking for sunscreens!
Black Lives STILL Matter y'all. Make sure you keep that energy going please.

Hello friends! Something I just want to clarify is that, with the more negative things I mention with US chemical filters, it's very much in the scope of "a study in 2000-something showed", and not that it's a very widespread thing. In reality, what I wanted to get across was just that a lot of our filters can be photo-unstable, and unlesss paired with other filters (some of which we don't approve here in the states), they're not amazing. Also, it's why, while I tend to hate fear mongering about chemical sunscreens, I understand why US consumers don't like them and why they can cause irritation and not be suitable for everyone. Hope this all makes sense! xoxo
Didn’t know I could love you more until the first 10 sec of this video😂 I LOVE that movie ❤️
I've loved it ever since my mom bought it on pay per view (lol) because she said I NEEDED to watch it when I was a kid
In the short amount of time I've been watching you you've already changed my sunscreen game! I wasn't wearing it every day and when I was it was like a pea sized amount. Now I know better lol
🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽 Love that GROWTH!!!! Have you noticed any changes as a result?
I love the white chicks reference 😭
LITERALLY one of my favorite movies growing up lol
I love listening to you talk about skin care. You clearly watch Dr. Dray and I'm here for it.
¡Hola, Ramón! I’m Puerto Rican too, so I just wanted to tell you I’m so happy there’s someone I can relate to in terms of ethnicity here on RUclips (whose channel is interesting to me). I’m so happy I found you!
💕💕💕 this is why I started doing this!!! So happy to be building a community around the videos I put out
LMFAO! I’m 10 seconds in and I’m already DEAD at this clip from White Chicks 💀😂😂😂😂
Just found you. But after reading in your description that you say "Black lives still matter..." Subscribed!!!!! Wish I could subscribe a million more times!! Great content too.
I 💖 you, thanks for teaching us these things. I never knew. 🌻
I 💕 you! So happy you found this useful. I was worried it was a lot of information people wouldn't necessarily find useful.
@ Don't worry about me I can handle it! ✌🏻😝
amazing video. Your sunscreen series is soooo helpful
Thank you so much! I really appreciate it. Tbh I look at this video and it’s lowkey kinda outdated, so I might revisit and redo it soon!
Goodness i adore you so much ♥️♥️♥️
💕☺️😘
It seems to me that any of the O family is a bit of the problematic filter. Oxybenzone is a definite no no, but Octinozate is apparently not coral reef safe and gets absorbed into the system, Octisalate can possibly create photoallergy, and Octocrylene is also a potential allergen and cannot be used on people under 3 years. The thing is it's pretty easy to find Octinozate, Octisalate, and Octocrylene in the sunscreens that are available to me like there is no way around this. Why is it so hard to make sunscreens without using those?! Same with Homosalate apparently it affects the estrogen and as a girl, I got really scared about this. I know being absorbed into the system and affecting the hormone hasn't proven to be negative for our health but hell it still scares the shit out of me.
Is Neo heliopan AP effective for uva protection? I don't see lot of brands use this tho. I use a sunscreen that has neo heliopan AP and Ensulizole.
Lmao the reference
Ok, so almost all of my SPF's are sh*t. Well, at least I have the information now so I can buy from a more educated place. Thank you very much.
i have a question regarding my sunscreen: i’ve been using the la roche-posay spf 50 *tinted* mineral sunscreen, which uses exclusively titanium dioxide to deliver UV protection. in this video you said that titanium dioxide is used to fortify zinc oxide, but you don’t say that titanium oxide is ever used alone...should i be worried?
I wouldn't be too worried! Your product has a great SPF and DOES say Broad Spectrum, I just say that Titanium Dioxide is best to fortify ZO because TD doesn't have the same extent of UVA protection as ZO does. Both cover UVB and UVAII, but ZO is much better at protecting against UVAI rays than TO, so that's why I say TD is used to fortify ZO in protecting against the lower waves, while ZO carries the weight of UVAI protection. That being said, La Roche Posay don't play around when it comes to sunscreens, and their formulations are highkey some of the best in the game. They utilize antioxidants in this specific formulation to help boost some of the UV protection the TD offers, too. I hope this helps! tl;dr: as long as it says "broad spectrum", you're doing ok, just wear enough and REAPPLY!
Glow By Ramón thank you SO much for the response! You answered my question and then some :))
Hi Ramon, what are your thoughts about the Missha soft finish sun milk?
10 seconds in, I’m checking whether I still had the 1.5 speed up, and the answer is NO!!! 😆 you talk so fast lol
Hi Ramón! I live in EU, so I wonder if the Anthelios Shaka Fluid SPF 50+ Frangrance Free with Mexoryl XL would be a good choice when it comes to sunscreen with high UVA protection?
It does! Not only does it have Mexoryl XL, but also Mexoryl SX, so it's like Tia and Tamera back together like a power duo for broad spectrum protection, PLUS avobenzone partnered with Tinosorb S to stabilize it, so you get the UVA coverage from avobenzone, PLUS MORE broad spectrum protection from the Tinosorb S. It looks like it's got a good combo of filters themselves providing and also stabilizing great UVA protection, plus SPF 50+ tells you it's got good UVB! I use the website incidecoder when looking up products since I feel like it gives really great info on product formulations and ingredients with sources provided.
@ Thank you, will definitely check that website! I will be going to town in a few hours to purchase it.
If I'm not mistaken the Shaka fluid has a UVA protection factor of 46 so you're really getting great protection 😉👍
i hear girl front playing
stan loona
Tbh I use a lot of their tracks lol. I use See Saw and Rosy the most
Well now you gotta spill the tea on reef safe.....

Where can I buy the international sunscreens? Is it legal to ship to US? Lol
Certain retailers can ship to the US. I’ve linked a couple in the description box that might be able to; but I can never guarantee who can and can’t since some retailers have different guidelines. It is legal though, it’s just a matter of who can and is willibg
Hi Ramon, I don’t think you mentioned that the US filters BURN the heck out of your eyes! This is like the number one reason why people don’t like to use it on their face 😢😢😢 I personally hate them and could never. One day I even had to pull over on the freeway because I couldn’t open my eyes 😂😂
Why do all new skincare youtubers copy James Welshes thumbnail font and colours?
Lol it’s very aesthetically pleasing and a clean, sleek design! I’m a science student with no graphic design experience. He didn’t invent it either!
I think it's just a trendy type of typography lol a lot of people use it
It’s not copying, it’s a commonly used font and style, and like Ramón said, it’s very clean and sleek.
This is like an encyclopedia of sunscreen :D yay. Tinosorb S is a star ingredient!! Still haven't encountered M but looking forward to meeting her.
I don't believe I have either! Looking it up on incidecoder, it seems more present in Japanese (Skin Aqua has a few products with Tinosorb M) and a good amount of European sunscreens. Since it does function similarly to physical filters, I had a friend with deeper skin say it tends to leave a white cast on them, even if it is technically a chemical filter by composition.
