is there a video where you go over the safety of the chem. sunscreens, for example the actives in black girl sunscreen and the trader joe one? I really like the TJ but I looked up the ingredients and now I'm confused if it's ok to use daily. BGS original formula, breaks me out. So i use it neck down until I finish it. Love the TJ one.
@@makeupunlimited check out these two: ruclips.net/video/IAlkanslb-Y/видео.html and ruclips.net/video/giGJ4ewGv0I/видео.html But just because the BGS broke you out, doesn't mean it's bad---just means there may be something in it that your skin is allergic/sensitive to. A lot of people love that sunscreen.
I'm a 'la Roche-Posay' kinda person when it comes to sunscreens bu want to see what else is out there. Thank you, seeing the finish on deeper skin tones is sooo helpful ! I want to give the 'round lab', 'skin aqua', 'cotz', 'bolden brightening moisturizer' ones a try 🙌
Honestly, you are simply underrated for how much you do for black skin No gimmicks no sponsor-biased d reviews, …You really provide so much help than you realize THANK YOU ❤
I really appreciate you cutting through the BS around sunscreens and being unapologetically pro-chemical-sunscreen. We need more voices like that in the sunscreen space. Thanks for the vid!
Great Video! I used to love Korean sunscreens, but I notice I have been getting a very slight white cast with some( beauty of Joseon included) only I can clock it, but that is the problem. I do like k-beauty sunsticks. Japanese sunscreen though is where it is at. If you are avoiding alcohol then J sunscreen may not be for you. The alcohol isn't damaging (at least to me) , it just for a more elegant /weightless formula. Nivea watery sunscreen and Kao/ Biore UV watery essence are those gurl! I have dry skin and I love them. No white cast! The oily gurls LOVE them too.
YEEES! Beauty of Joseon leaves a lavenderish white cast and my skin is deep/ glowy brown. My mom who is half a shade lighter than me might be able to get away with it or my I'll give it to my SO since he's much lighter than me. I have dry skin since the Aztec "decimation" clay incident of '16 and can't do alcohol based things as much. The dear klairs essence was everything before they changed.
heyyy y'all! some of the Asian sunscreens contain titanium dioxide and/or zinc oxide so that could be causing the slight white cast you see. You might have to search through the ingredient list before buying a new one next time---though having titanium dioxide and/or zinc oxide doesn't automatically mean it'll have a cast. Tinosorb M is another ingredient sometimes found in Asian sunscreens that could also *possibly* cause a slight white cast
Hi, if you're interested I review many Japanese ( no alcohol/ no fragrance) and Korean sunscreen on my channel. I actually did not buy and review the BOJ one because I saw review of of other Black youtubers complaining about the same thing.
I loveee the Cotz richly tinted sunscreen. My skin is deeper than yours and it looks really really nice on my skin! People always tell me my skin is glowing when I wear it. I’ll take that over Casper the ghost!!
I use and really like Super Goop Glowscreen. I apply it to my ears and neck, and I have locs. No issues. I do not wear makeup 95% of the time now. Thanks again for your insight that really helped me.
I love the Trader Joe's dupe for my face, I add the Elf gel moisturizer underneath and it looks beautiful. For the body I use the CVS SPF 50 lotion that is just the right amount of sheen for the body and is a great value.
Yeeees! It's my big sis! Big sis how are you?! Looking stunning as always. My big sis is out here trying to make sure I don't look like a mix of Sammy Sosa and Edward from twilight had a poltergeist/casper cosplaying Nigerian-Egyptian love child lol. I'll make another comment about the products and the review.
Summer Fridays Shadedrops is the sunscreen that checked all the boxes for me. Mineral, not matte, and no white cast. Have you reviewed that one? Anyway, love your sunscreen videos for us darker-skinned queens. And you inspired me to keep searching for my perfect sunscreen after so many disappointments! ❤❤❤
I LOVE these videos! My credit card be on deck ready to burn it up! 😂 I need to do better bc I end up buying so much and I worry about it going bad before getting through it...but I like trying everything lol
I just got a sample of cotz from my peel company and I’m in love with it. I was surprised it was tinted and there was no white cast. I’m in love with it 🥰
@@ro.l4133yes. All of the tinted COTZ transfer onto clothes. Does wash out but not cute on the collar. I still wear it on my face cause it’s great but I wear a white cast sunblock on my neck and chest.
I’m still loving cotz but I’ve moved onto to incorporate the mineral sheer stick spf 45. I’ll keep them both since the tinted is a matte finish and the stick isnt. I love the ease of applications. And no white cast on my brown skin
Been wearing COTZ the last 2yrs. 🙌🏾 Recommended by my SOC dermatologist. No cast at all! I’ve fought the fine flight with so many other mineral blocks. COTZ works into the skin fast too. Only down fall is it doesn’t dry down so it makes make - up on top look very dewy. Searching to switch to a primer that can mattify the COTZ because I really like it. The tint does transfer onto clothes if worn on neck & chest.
I am so glad I caught this video! I was just lamenting that I am half way through my bottle of the Biossance Sheer Mineral Sunscreen thinking, what will I do when it runs out! I will definitely give that new Fenty Beauty one a try! I don't care if it's expensive, like you said, if you need a cosmetically elegant mineral sunscreen, you are just going to have to get used to shelling out some cash. I am signing up for their email list now so I can be aware of any future sales. Also I definitely think Rihanna watches your videos! I mean, you're the only black woman I am aware of who reviews so many mineral sunscreens in such detail! Thank you for your service!
I like that one in cold weather. But since I can only use it in cold weather, I might as well use BGS Kids or BGS spf 30, or Neutrogena Hydroboost wich are cheaper.
I love COTZ. I’m a dry skin type but sweaty in the summer so I wear their sensitive one since it’s waterproof. I have the flawless complexion richly tinted in line for the fall. I love their products!! I’ve also started using Asian sunscreens and they are superior, no doubt
The Cotz Flawless Complexion was one of the first sunscreens I ever tried and I still use it today. It is a very nice formula. I'm African American and I have a medium skin tone. I don't think it leaves a white cast at all. It's a good sunscreen that I would recommend to anyone.
Thank you for another hot video! As a sunscreen addict, I’ve tried the BOJ and Round Lab ones and loved them. Went on nicely, didn’t break me out. You’re right, they work better in cooler temps. In the summer, it makes my combo skin pretty greasy lol. May give the Good Molecules & Inky List one’s a try. I’ve used both of Purito’s sunscreens and the Isntree HA one. All seem good but still too heavy for my skin as it’s getting warm in SoCal. Also, trying out Mary & May Cica Sun Cream. Will report back lol. Oh, Unsun, found at Target, might be an option to try. It has 2 different tints. But the lavender in it is a bit much.
Not Jermaine. 😂 I have the Trader Joe’s one and I will use it then back off because I don’t fully know if my skin likes it. It is less greazy on me than Unseen Sunscreen but it doesn’t dry down at all. It feels protective. My forehead usually gets dry and it doesn’t with this but I feel this texture on my skin I don’t know if I like: maybe if I stopped touching my face. I think it probably works well under makeup as a primer. Otherwise I don’t see myself gravitating towards it. My sister loves it. I feel like I noticed black heads in areas I don’t normally get them the last time I used it two days in a row. So some thoughts but I am undecided. Haven’t gone through a full tube.
I definitely will be grabbing the black girl lip sunscreen and the baby version of the original later today. I am literally wiping the container I cut in half 😂. Everything else looks aight, but I think I’m ok
Thanks for hitting us with more knowledge! Sadly, even the filters used in k-beauty brands will break me out, as I learned this past week 😒😮💨 I will say that the magical power of my tret has helped to clear my face up in a matter of a few days. My question is finding a mineral sunscreen for my body. I've given up on my face... I may be ashy looking... But I don't want the rest of my person looking like I was rolling in flour 😩😭😩
Thank u for this!! I love it so much. I would love to try to Trader Joe’s sunscreen, but it’s always sold out in my area! Such a bummer. Good molecules is technically a hybrid sunscreen and when I left a comment on their Instagram account saying so they deleted it! Smh
lol @ they deleted it! they could have just explained, but maybe they felt you were being “aggressive.” 🤣 I do see Butyloctyl Salicylate is in there, but it’s being used as a solvent vs a UV filter. I’m pretty sure I watched a Lab Muffin video explaining this though.
Thanks for this review! My lips can get pretty sun-sensitive, so I appreciate the gloss recommendation. I was considering the Krave Beauty....maybe for the cooler months because I don't want to be too shiny.
I found the Round Lab Birch Juice spf to feel too heavy in hot, humid weather. Sad because it was beautiful going on; but I just could not stand the suffocating feel of it. The Good MoleCules Spf was beautiful too, it set really nicely and I would've repurchased in spite of the sheer white cast, but it irritated my face. I tried it on my neck and hands, same problem. Too bad.
I use La Roche Posay Anthelios UVmune 400 Invisible Fluid SPF 50+ religiously. I love it, but I often want to try others and maybe have a backup. So far I've had no luck. The DRMTLGY Universal Tinted Moisturizer SPF 46 is great in the way it feels and in the tint, but it is way too shiny. The Cotz leaves a weird cast. Maybe I will try the Bolden, although "brightening" often means greasy for me. Thanks for this video Danielle.
A lot of derms have been liking the BOJ one and a few have been liking the TJ's and I've seen one or two and maybe Lab Muffin talk about the Round Lab Birch. So many sunscreens though... Have you checked out any sunscreen sticks lately?
Heyyy! there are sunscreen sticks sprinkled in my previous reviews. We also chatted about two sticks in a recent live: ruclips.net/video/K7vDUzjFyEg/видео.html
I started wearing sunscreen everyday and recently stopped because my skin started breaking up profusely. The mineral sunscreen is too heavy and leaves grey tint, while chemical sunscreens tend to irritate my sensitive skin... 😑😑
I tried the Fenty last year at Sephora. Too perfumy and too expensive but it looks good on. I’ve tried so many CoTZ and end up looking like a glazed donut every time. It stays sticky and tacky. Reapplication makes me look crazy. I use the Supergoop Matte Mineral. It’s the only mineral I’ve found that isn’t shiny, glowy and sticky all day.
Enjoying this speed review! Thanks for putting me on to new sunscreens! Was the Bolden one reformulated? I remember using Bolden for a minute, years ago including the sunsreen (I think I broke out from it so I switched to other ones specifically mineral based). I wonder what the reviews on the reviews look like on sephora because the Navy don't *PLAY*. I critically reviewed the glycerin hand mask (I liked the smell and it moisturized my hands but the peeling on the *packaging*? No ma'am.). When I tell you I got more thumbs down than up?LOL! Stans be STANNING! Only thing I liked previously from the skincare line is the cleanser. I have the cookies n cream mask which I like but ngl only wish it smelled like cookies and cream. I mean why by stingy with the fragrance now? 😆 ETA: I don't see myself paying 20 bucks for a sunscreen hand cream. Just putting regular black girl sunscreen on my hands does the trick
Now i have the Fenty skin Hydra vizor invisible moisturizer broad spectrum spf 30 sunscreen and i really like that one and on ME it doesn't leave a white cast and this particular one is for people with oily skin however i do find it just a tab bit oily or maybe it's just really hydrating but like i said it works for me
Fenty mineral is on my list, but Sephora reviews were sad. Thank you for your review! I love your videos. I also use Ilia Serum Spf (shade 14.5) and love it. Curious if you might be trying: Iris & Romeo Weekend skin SPF 50 + Vitamin C $50 or Odacite SPF 50 Mineral Drops Tinted Sunscreen ? Thanks!
Please do a review of the color since total protection no show mineral sunscreen. Some people have no white cast and some do. Would look to see if on someone with your skin tone. Thank you❤
The Fenty HydraVizor Mineral SPF was so clockable on me and I'm a lighter shade than Danielle. I hated everything about this SPF. It was just heavy and peels on my skin like the original. I gave this SPF to my mom who is fair skin and she said she looked purple. I'm not of fan of Fenty face/skin care.
Rewatch! It's crazy you day the good molecules one has a minimal cast because even though it's advertised as such, I just got it and it definitely leaves a cast. I just the 3 finger method and everything and it left a bigger cast than the suntique I'm safe for sensitive skin one that's my favorite and am running out of. I could've sworn you tried the anessa sunscreen (in the gold bottle) but don't see a video. Have you tried it and what are your thoughts if so?
I was interested in the Illia Super Serum skin tint but at $48 it’s a little too pricey for me. I think I’m gonna stick with the Olay Regenerist Mineral Sunscreen I’ve been using for now.
I've tried the Make it Pop gloss and enjoy the smell. However, after licking food off my lips I noticed it didn't taste anything like vanilla, more like sunscreen 😂. The mineral SPF balms I have leaves an ugly white cast so ima stick beside her, nasty taste an all!!! I use the BGS Kids SPF spray because I personally need 50 or more of sun protection, plus it's larger for less.
Supergoop glow mineral powder... NO!! The idea is great, but you actually dont properly apply the adequate amount of it that you need for protection. Its hard to gauge how much you are actually applying with the powder. If you use a UV camera, you will see what i mean
Im a little sceptical but intrigued about using anything new to me. However, would like to see which one I could use for myself and three young sons. We are from the UK so when we do occassionally get sunshine it can be very strong and I tend to get heat rash, so wondered if any of these would work for me. In the UK I've not seen any product resembling these and we would just use ones that are more for very light skin or white skin. Any help would be appreciated!! Many thanks
Like I say often in videos, sometimes you might have a white cast where I don't because of what you use before the sunscreen, how you apply it, etc. I along with a lot of other people didn't notice a white cast with C'est Moi---but also that brand sells more than one sunscreen formula---the specific one I reviewed was called C'est Moi Sunshine Mineral Body & Face SPF 45 Sunscreen.
The comparison between The Trader joes spf and Super Goop Unseen/BGS Make it Matte was a bit confusing. The Super Goop looks matte and feels matte. It's perfect for oily skin and under makeup, except it breaks me out. The BGS Make it Matte only looks matte from afar; it feels oily and stays oily/movable. It doesn't ever set and messes up the coverage and longevity of my makeup.
Can you let us know where you got this info from? Fluorocarbons have been banned for use since the late 70s: www.epa.gov/archive/epa/aboutepa/government-ban-fluorocarbon-gases-aerosol-products-begins-october-15-1978.html
@@styleandbeautydoctor... sure thing. Just Google - propellants in sun screen. We're being advised not to inhale this. Not good for our lungs or the environment. My bad, I was referring to propellants instead of fluorocarbons.
Why don't I trust sunscreen for black skin? How come in Africa most don't use it but their skin glowing till old age? Honest question cause maybe I should use it tho
take some time to watch more sunscreen videos on this channel. And also a browse through African skincare influencer content on RUclips, TikTok, Instagram, etc will show you that plenty of Africans do wear sunscreen and/or practice safe sun tactics.
Sunscreens can be useful to fight hyperpimentation. Dark spots due to acne, any uneven skin tone, or melasma or even hypopigmentation. I am French/ Congolese. I live in France but I have been to Congo and most of my family lives in Congo. You're right beside some influencers Black Africans do not wear sunscreens and their skin look amazing much better than most outside the continent. If you don't suffer from what I have mentioned, then do not stress about it.
@@heredianna2496 Thank you 🙏🏾 I mean the proof is in the pudding. The elders in my family uncles, aunties, parents etc. All have youthful skin and NEVER touched sunscreens. My grandmother in spirit realms 💚😇👼🏿 had youthful skin, no wrinkles and she was in her 70th Never used sunscreens in her life. I think I'll pass on sunscreen cause I really started doubting. Thank you sis
I’m a bit confused, do you recommend physical sunscreen because it’s better to protect from hyperpigmentation getting darker? I switched to physical even though it’s so hard since I’m darker skin tone, but I’m trying to lighten my melasma so I’m trying physical to protect from visible light. Am I doing the right thing?
I recommend using whatever sunscreen you like wearing so that you'll keep wearing it and want to reapply it. Melasma is very much affected by sun exposure so diligent sunscreen usage is important. There was a study I mentioned in the video though that tinted mineral sunscreens are helpful for those with persistent pigmentation issues, but that doesn't mean it's the only option. If you like the sunscreen you're using and are using it everyday and making sure to reapply every 2 hours when you're out in the sun or reapplying immediately after swimming, sweating, any activities that get you wet, etc. but also doing safe sun activities (big hat, big sunglasses when outside, etc) then you're doing the right thing. Sometimes you may also need to see a skin of color pro for treatment.

Thank u for this!! I love it so much. I would love to try to Trader Joe’s sunscreen, but it’s always sold out in my area! Such a bummer. Good molecules is technically a hybrid sunscreen and when I left a comment on their Instagram account saying so they deleted it! Smh
lol @ they deleted it! they could have just explained, but maybe they felt you were being “aggressive.” 🤣 I do see Butyloctyl Salicylate is in there, but it’s being used as a solvent vs a UV filter. I’m pretty sure I watched a Lab Muffin video explaining this though.
Thanks for this review! My lips can get pretty sun-sensitive, so I appreciate the gloss recommendation. I was considering the Krave Beauty....maybe for the cooler months because I don't want to be too shiny.
I found the Round Lab Birch Juice spf to feel too heavy in hot, humid weather. Sad because it was beautiful going on; but I just could not stand the suffocating feel of it. The Good MoleCules Spf was beautiful too, it set really nicely and I would've repurchased in spite of the sheer white cast, but it irritated my face. I tried it on my neck and hands, same problem. Too bad.
I use La Roche Posay Anthelios UVmune 400 Invisible Fluid SPF 50+ religiously. I love it, but I often want to try others and maybe have a backup. So far I've had no luck. The DRMTLGY Universal Tinted Moisturizer SPF 46 is great in the way it feels and in the tint, but it is way too shiny. The Cotz leaves a weird cast. Maybe I will try the Bolden, although "brightening" often means greasy for me. Thanks for this video Danielle.
A lot of derms have been liking the BOJ one and a few have been liking the TJ's and I've seen one or two and maybe Lab Muffin talk about the Round Lab Birch. So many sunscreens though... Have you checked out any sunscreen sticks lately?
Heyyy! there are sunscreen sticks sprinkled in my previous reviews. We also chatted about two sticks in a recent live: ruclips.net/video/K7vDUzjFyEg/видео.html
.Thos 4 + makes a huge difference in your protection. At least for me.
Thank you kindly for this. I greatly appreciate your time. 🙂
I LOVE the Cōtz tinted sunscreen. Ive been using it for about a yr or so. Definitely take time and rub it in. It disappears completely
Your skin looks amazing
Awww thank youuu! 💕
I gotta try that new COTZ. I had the older and it felt great but gave the slightest cast.
That Richly Tinted was niiice. I wonder if they'll ever do a tint even darker than that.
Omg yessssss imma b trying that neutrogena I’m boutta go look at Dr.Alexis reaction to it!!
I started wearing sunscreen everyday and recently stopped because my skin started breaking up profusely. The mineral sunscreen is too heavy and leaves grey tint, while chemical sunscreens tend to irritate my sensitive skin... 😑😑
Try Asian chemical sunscreens. They tend to use less irritating filters
Keep looking you will find the one that works for you
I tried the Fenty last year at Sephora. Too perfumy and too expensive but it looks good on. I’ve tried so many CoTZ and end up looking like a glazed donut every time. It stays sticky and tacky. Reapplication makes me look crazy. I use the Supergoop Matte Mineral. It’s the only mineral I’ve found that isn’t shiny, glowy and sticky all day.
Enjoying this speed review! Thanks for putting me on to new sunscreens! Was the Bolden one reformulated? I remember using Bolden for a minute, years ago including the sunsreen (I think I broke out from it so I switched to other ones specifically mineral based). I wonder what the reviews on the reviews look like on sephora because the Navy don't *PLAY*. I critically reviewed the glycerin hand mask (I liked the smell and it moisturized my hands but the peeling on the *packaging*? No ma'am.). When I tell you I got more thumbs down than up?LOL! Stans be STANNING! Only thing I liked previously from the skincare line is the cleanser. I have the cookies n cream mask which I like but ngl only wish it smelled like cookies and cream. I mean why by stingy with the fragrance now? 😆 ETA: I don't see myself paying 20 bucks for a sunscreen hand cream. Just putting regular black girl sunscreen on my hands does the trick
That round lab sunscreen is THE ONE for me...I can't get the trader Joe's one...and that dark Kroger one is STILL MIA for me after all these years
Now i have the Fenty skin Hydra vizor invisible moisturizer broad spectrum spf 30 sunscreen and i really like that one and on ME it doesn't leave a white cast and this particular one is for people with oily skin however i do find it just a tab bit oily or maybe it's just really hydrating but like i said it works for me
Fenty mineral is on my list, but Sephora reviews were sad. Thank you for your review! I love your videos. I also use Ilia Serum Spf (shade 14.5) and love it. Curious if you might be trying: Iris & Romeo Weekend skin SPF 50 + Vitamin C $50 or Odacite SPF 50 Mineral Drops Tinted Sunscreen ? Thanks!
Please do a review of the color since total protection no show mineral sunscreen. Some people have no white cast and some do. Would look to see if on someone with your skin tone. Thank you❤
The Fenty HydraVizor Mineral SPF was so clockable on me and I'm a lighter shade than Danielle. I hated everything about this SPF. It was just heavy and peels on my skin like the original. I gave this SPF to my mom who is fair skin and she said she looked purple. I'm not of fan of Fenty face/skin care.
Rewatch! It's crazy you day the good molecules one has a minimal cast because even though it's advertised as such, I just got it and it definitely leaves a cast. I just the 3 finger method and everything and it left a bigger cast than the suntique I'm safe for sensitive skin one that's my favorite and am running out of. I could've sworn you tried the anessa sunscreen (in the gold bottle) but don't see a video. Have you tried it and what are your thoughts if so?
what are you using before you put the GM one on? Sometimes some ingredients/formulas may cause a white cast to be more apparent.
Definitely gonna pick up the Cotz richly tinted
Let me know what you think!
I was interested in the Illia Super Serum skin tint but at $48 it’s a little too pricey for me. I think I’m gonna stick with the Olay Regenerist Mineral Sunscreen I’ve been using for now.
Rihana facial sunscreen i like and use
You're Jamaican?! You said that way too smoothly😮 I had to double tap to the left and replay😂
Which should I use with tretinoin ? Please
I've tried the Make it Pop gloss and enjoy the smell. However, after licking food off my lips I noticed it didn't taste anything like vanilla, more like sunscreen 😂. The mineral SPF balms I have leaves an ugly white cast so ima stick beside her, nasty taste an all!!! I use the BGS Kids SPF spray because I personally need 50 or more of sun protection, plus it's larger for less.
The tear with the fenty and flash 😢😂😂😂
😂😂
How did you like the feel of COTZ FC? I thought it was too greasy on my skin. ☹️☹️ Definitely going to try the new Fenty one! Thank you, Danielle!!❤
Greasy, shiny and sticky on me.
@@mswtaz94 EXACTLY the same for me. It felt like an emollient lol.
@@fefemyluv 🤣
Love your personality! ❤😊😂
thank youuuu! ❤️
I use good molecules and it’s not 100% mineral it’s a hybrid chemical/ mineral and not water resistant
Fenty makes my eyes burn
Is banana boat a good sunscreen? It works for me
Oh no, not the tear on your face 😂😂.
lmaoooooo
My sunscreen has made me darker and uneven had anyone else experience this
Supergoop glow mineral powder... NO!! The idea is great, but you actually dont properly apply the adequate amount of it that you need for protection. Its hard to gauge how much you are actually applying with the powder. If you use a UV camera, you will see what i mean
Yes, that’s why I said it’s used to “reapply sunscreen over makeup.” Meaning you already have a base sunscreen on.
Im a little sceptical but intrigued about using anything new to me. However, would like to see which one I could use for myself and three young sons. We are from the UK so when we do occassionally get sunshine it can be very strong and I tend to get heat rash, so wondered if any of these would work for me. In the UK I've not seen any product resembling these and we would just use ones that are more for very light skin or white skin. Any help would be appreciated!! Many thanks
Do any of these sting the eyes?
Watched
What chemicals sun screen do you use
21:11 not it’s fluorescent beige 😂
You steered me wrong with the C’est Moi sunscreen. I’m like ten shades lighter than you and it made me look ghostly! 😞
Like I say often in videos, sometimes you might have a white cast where I don't because of what you use before the sunscreen, how you apply it, etc. I along with a lot of other people didn't notice a white cast with C'est Moi---but also that brand sells more than one sunscreen formula---the specific one I reviewed was called C'est Moi Sunshine Mineral Body & Face SPF 45 Sunscreen.
@@styleandbeautydoctor yep, that’s the one that left a white cast on me. And it felt so gritty on the skin, not smooth at all
The comparison between The Trader joes spf and Super Goop Unseen/BGS Make it Matte was a bit confusing. The Super Goop looks matte and feels matte. It's perfect for oily skin and under makeup, except it breaks me out. The BGS Make it Matte only looks matte from afar; it feels oily and stays oily/movable. It doesn't ever set and messes up the coverage and longevity of my makeup.
How is it confusing? I said exactly what you said but not the same way lol. Rewatch that part
Be careful y'all ... 'dem fluorocarbons in the sprays coat your lungs - Not safe.
Appreciate these reviews Danielle.
Can you let us know where you got this info from? Fluorocarbons have been banned for use since the late 70s: www.epa.gov/archive/epa/aboutepa/government-ban-fluorocarbon-gases-aerosol-products-begins-october-15-1978.html
@@styleandbeautydoctor... sure thing. Just Google - propellants in sun screen. We're being advised not to inhale this. Not good for our lungs or the environment. My bad, I was referring to propellants instead of fluorocarbons.
I like youuuu 💜 you sound like Chrissy , Jim Jones girl
Why don't I trust sunscreen for black skin? How come in Africa most don't use it but their skin glowing till old age? Honest question cause maybe I should use it tho
take some time to watch more sunscreen videos on this channel. And also a browse through African skincare influencer content on RUclips, TikTok, Instagram, etc will show you that plenty of Africans do wear sunscreen and/or practice safe sun tactics.
Sunscreens can be useful to fight hyperpimentation. Dark spots due to acne, any uneven skin tone, or melasma or even hypopigmentation. I am French/ Congolese. I live in France but I have been to Congo and most of my family lives in Congo. You're right beside some influencers Black Africans do not wear sunscreens and their skin look amazing much better than most outside the continent. If you don't suffer from what I have mentioned, then do not stress about it.
@@heredianna2496 Thank you 🙏🏾 I mean the proof is in the pudding. The elders in my family uncles, aunties, parents etc. All have youthful skin and NEVER touched sunscreens. My grandmother in spirit realms 💚😇👼🏿 had youthful skin, no wrinkles and she was in her 70th Never used sunscreens in her life.
I think I'll pass on sunscreen cause I really started doubting. Thank you sis
Would you be trying out the Beauty of Joseon serum sunscreen?
Not the Jamaican badword😅
I’m a bit confused, do you recommend physical sunscreen because it’s better to protect from hyperpigmentation getting darker? I switched to physical even though it’s so hard since I’m darker skin tone, but I’m trying to lighten my melasma so I’m trying physical to protect from visible light. Am I doing the right thing?
I recommend using whatever sunscreen you like wearing so that you'll keep wearing it and want to reapply it. Melasma is very much affected by sun exposure so diligent sunscreen usage is important. There was a study I mentioned in the video though that tinted mineral sunscreens are helpful for those with persistent pigmentation issues, but that doesn't mean it's the only option.
If you like the sunscreen you're using and are using it everyday and making sure to reapply every 2 hours when you're out in the sun or reapplying immediately after swimming, sweating, any activities that get you wet, etc. but also doing safe sun activities (big hat, big sunglasses when outside, etc) then you're doing the right thing. Sometimes you may also need to see a skin of color pro for treatment.
