I love Summer Fridays ShadeDrops. My sensitive skin simply won’t tolerate any chemical sunscreen, so mineral is my only option. My skin is also dry so I stay away from anything with a matte finish. I like a slightly dewy finish, zero white cast, and must play well with my other skincare products (such as my CeraVe Moisturizing Cream,) and Summer Fridays really ticks all the boxes for my brown skin.
Had never heard of the Bolden sunscreen. So happy that there are more black-owned sunscreens in the game. Thank you for your consistent, always high quality content! Been a fan for years!
Can you tell us more about this sunscreen or give the specific link where you bought it on Amazon? I’ve always been a mineral sunscreen girl, but I really would like to find a great chemical sunscreen that does not sting the eyes
Yes the Inkey List sunscreen is a lil thick one. LOL! That's why I prefer the Innisfree Daily UV one. It's a texture thing. The Innisfree feels like a lovely moisturizer.
@@01cherrelle so I’m a guy with very dry skin who doesn’t wear makeup. I would say it depends on your skin. Probably not if you’re oily tbh. I would try it and if it doesn’t work use it as a body SPF. It’s a great brand and product I recommend to everyone
I love this video, for me I mainly use Korean sunscreens now. My holygrail is Numbuzin , then Skin1004, and I also like Bioderma European formula. Its just unfortunate we have such limited sun filters in the US. I would really prefer to buy an American brand tbh, like I cant imagine how amazing a Black Girl sunscreen would be with some of the filters used in Australia,Europe or Asia. American formulists really got to work to make our old school filters not suck, imagine what they'd do with the other ones out there.
My go to sunscreen continues to be Supergoop’s Unseen sunscreen. No white cast and lightweight. I like K-beauty sun milks VERY much but I’m trying to lean into cleaner ingredients these days so I stick to the Supergoop. I live in Chicago and can use that all year round
My most used sunscreens are Numbuzin Clear Filter Sun Essence in summer, Purito Daily Soft Touch for winter cause its packed with ceramides and Scinic Enjoy Sun Essence other times of the year.
I have an Asian sunscreen video playlist here you can check out: ruclips.net/video/mIJGaC-0eZ0/видео.html&pp=gAQBiAQB/ But there's also another video coming next week
I'm a Black woman in Colorado and for this super dry winter season, I've fallen in love with the A'pieu Pure Block Aqua Sun Gel (the green one). I had a tube in my cabinet and I only used it until I could get more of the Japanese Biore Aqua Rich Watery Essence. I probably stopped using it because it was too moisturizing for warm months, but its been perfect for this dry winter during which I decided to start an adapalene routine for antiaging. Dries to no white cast and no eye sting. I had no issues when using it over severe retinization bumps and flakiness last week. It's now my winter sunscreen and I'll save the Biore for warmer months.
I normally use the Japanese Skin Aqua milk spf 50++++. It's great under makeup or alone. Moisturizing and I sometimes skip the moisturizer with it entirely. Nice soft glow to finish. I just ordered Beauty of Joseon's probiotic sunscreen and Skin1004 sunscreens, as well as a promo I accepted for the Japanese version of KAO Biore. They all feature a sunblock ingredient that's supposed to be the best, but not available in US made sunscreens. I'm going to see if any of them do me better than Skin Aqua milk has.
The bolden sounds interesting. I've seen the budget dermatologist promoting the inkey list one. I've been using the black girl kids sunscreen (my skin is balanced to dry). I also have the LRP double repair SPF waiting in the background.
My most used sunscreen is innisfree. They use to have a matte one, but since discontinued. However, I'm going to try the 3 in this video. I'm always looking for a new one. The Innisfree isn't as hydrating in the cooler months.
I LOVE the Naturium sunscreen! I have combo skin but even in summer it looks great. It gives me a glass skin look. I've purchased more than 5 tubes - so I'd say I'm addicted. Will definitely check out the Inkey List sunscreen.
I must say my favorite sunscreen that does not cause burning, stinging, or breakouts is...Cotz Sensitive NON-Tinted Zinc 3.5oz Face and Body. Yes, it's dewy and the white cast is veryyyyy minimal but it's great under concealer and makes my skin look so luminous and I love it. I will say at first I didn't like the dewiness but after trying so many and being unhappy with their performance, I said I might as well give it a real try and fell in love ( I don't mind shining bright like a Diamond). I've tried a few of the most popular domestic/foreign sunscreens like Beauty of Joseon, Haruharu Wonder Black Rice, Madagascar Centella Hyalu-Cica Water-Fit, Versed Guards Mineral, CeraVe Tinted, Neutrogena Clear Face, Supergoop Mineral Matte, MDSolarScience and they either broke out my oily acne-prone skin, burned it, the tint was off, cost too much, or just didn't sit right. So after Cotz I stopped my search! It's well worth my peace because I was tired Boss!! 😅 Oh, I'm a Florida Girl so you know it's serious!
I still have naturium sunscreen in my cabinet. I tried the n sunscreen and it was too dewy for me, even for fall. I will try it again in the dead of winter to see if i like it better. I also live in NYC, so let’s see hope it goes.
I remember Bolden! I remember when they were selling at target. I tried their sunscreen moisturizer but I don't know if it was from that but I noticed I was breaking out so I stopped. I used their other products like their masks tho until recently. I prefer mineral. I've been wearing A or K-Beauty sunscreens exclusively. I am wearing Roundlab birch juice sunscreen lately. It's moisturizing,but leaves a slight cast added i notice some stinging when I apply makeup products like primer. It goes away though.
Another great great sunscreen review! I’ll have to try toe bolden one someday. I like the skin1004 but I’m looking for something I can just pick up (too impatient 🙈) and something that doesn’t break out my combo skin. The struggle is real and I appreciate your videos!
Got the Natrium coming from their BF sale, hopefully I like it since thre formula is my alley for my dry skin. The Bolden looks nice, as for the Inkey list, I am only willing to do all the rubbing work for an actual mineral sunscreen. my top sunscreens this year have been the Inisfree Daily UV sunscreen, and the Olay mineral sunscren in the tall red tube. Also been altrernating btw the Fenty Beauty mineral and chemical sunscreens. For Body, the Kopari Beauty Sunshield is excellent
I’ve been using the Isntree watery gel and biore watery essence sunscreen but I’m needing something more hydrating I’ve been eyeing the Natiurm so I may pick that up
I use the Hawaiian Tropic body sunscreen for my face (cheap, cheap and doesn’t sting) in the summer. Neutrogena Hydro boost face sunscreen and Aveeno face sunscreen in the winter (they sting in the summer, I guess because of sweat and/or AC)🤸🏾♀️
I got them in PR. I was SO excited to get them after seeing this video: instagram.com/p/CyjvbmnsRP7/ but since the balms are sheer, it's not going to show up the same on everyone especially if you have pigmented lips (or two-tone lips like mine). All of the shades pretty much looked like clear gloss on me lol
The only one I haven't tried is Bolden. But the other two stung my eyes something TERRIBLE! I did like the finish of the naturium but the eye sting was horrible
it's crazy how subjective eye sting is! I haven't experienced it with these---but there are some sunscreens that initially didn't sting my eyes then BOOM...eye sting.
The smell of the inkey list spf really smells like something spoiled , can’t put my finger on it but it definitely lingers for a good 30-45 minutes, if not longer
I was wearing Elta MD 30 spf but kept irritating my eyes so now use colorscience glow that I brought back into rotation on non makeup days or supergoop unscreen if I don’t want tint and belif Korean sunscreen under makeup. Have you reviewed that one by the way?
I've tried a few elta MD sunscreens---if you search the channel by the sunscreen name, the videos should pop up. It's been over a year so I don't remember. ditto colorscience though I do remember most of their stuff looking ashy on me.
@@isobel64 they either have a white/grey cast (I dont wear foundation so i can't cover it) or they make my eyes burn to the point where I can't drive. im going to try the r&r sun serum in the deep tint next

Most used sunscreens are the Skin1004, new Purito Chemical SPF, Scinic and Black Girl sunscreen kids. Nothing really over $15! 😊
yesss we love a sunscreen and budget conscious lineup!
Is the Black Girl sunscreen for kids good under makeup , that’s if you wear makeup. If you don’t mine me asking.

Sis! It's time for you to revisit the Korean sunscreens... The Beauty of Joseon Relief Sun and the Skin1004 Hyalu-Cica?! Chile! Chef's kiss!

Black girl sunscreen matte version, supergoop everyface (or something like that), shiseido newest sunscreen (orange and white packaging) is good too.

Obsessed with the Odacite sheer sunscreen mineral drops, both the translucent & tinted versions are amazing!
I'm addicted to Isntree but it's dewy and I'm oily. So I need something different for the dead of summer

heyyyyy! omg so good seeing you!!!!!

Summer Fridays…so far using it in the winter.
I am currently using the Supergoop SPF 40 moisturizer, but I may go back to using Bolden during the warmer months.
I’ll have to give the Bolden one a try!
Neutrogena spfs for me the serum ones or the invisible daily in the larger bottles is best value but hard to find.
I have natural dry skin for reference. This year I have been loving Black Girl Sunscreen for kids spf 50. Other ones just don't work the same for me.
I like the Bolden sunscreen.
Off Topic, but did anyone get those Naturium lip balms in the Cafe Collection and have any feedback?
I got them in PR.

My skin felt tight after wearing naturiums :/ i have to add a moisturizer under it to make it feel better.
