@marieconstancegoa4581 Thank you! Glad it helps. And yes the color is gorgeous !

@aaronkolatch5211 Ha ha ha, yes, nobody wants to do that, but Asian sunscreens in general are much better in that aspect (I have reviewed many of them.. korean and japanese) and if you watch my videos on the suncreen from the French brand SVR you'll see that finally a French brand has delivered what EVERYONE needs in a sunscreen !

@magalyvilela4917 Thank you for the recommendation !

@thegimpiessocialclub3113 Thank you for your comment, and I am glad my video helped you. Let me know how you feel about the Isehan sunscreen after you've tried it. I love to get feedbacks!

@@journeytoself8067 Thank you, I am glad you liked it !

@GPassalis Hope you'll see great results and please share them here !

@HereDiianas It arrived today! I did a patch test on my forearm, to see if there is going to be any skin reaction, and, if everything goes well, i will start with the applications!

@a.e1785 Yes I have heard about this one but with its creamy texture I won't be able to make it work in my morning routine. A thin texture serum that I can use in the morning before my moisturizer is what seems the most feasible to me. In the evening I use granative retinoid for my acne+ anti-aging so I can't change my evening routine. I am thinking of trying NIOD CAIS...copper peptides later. I know it's very liquidy and It's the "original" that many people seem to love and that inspired other brands... But for now I am taking a break for peptides lol. But I agree that they have grat products. I love their azelaic acid serum... and I'll talk about it on my next video. Thanks for the comment !

@Rienne0703 Very sorry it did not work for you either :-(

@marcojacinto824 I am glad you found your perfect lip balm. I just checked their website and their chocolate body scrub also seem interesting... I did not know this brand so thank for sharing !

@@marcojacinto824 Thank you and Iam glad you enjoyed the video. The rice salad is a classic in France...

@AleeAleea-ei7js Hi, there are 3 types of videos that can help you on my channel. I just made a review on niacinamide (you should watch it), I made a video recently on the best face moisturizers, and I have several videos about suncreens. You should first start with the basics. Find an affordable fragrance-free moisturizer, niacinamide serum(to start fighting hyperpimentation, fragrance-free moisturizing sunscreens, and a gentle fragrance-free cleanser. You can find information on all of these on my channel, and since you're only 18, you'll appreciate that I always give affordable options as well. Good luck

@pennybourban3712 Thanks ! I am wearing makeup here. I am wearing Lisa Eldridge foundation which is my favorite. I made a full review of itbon my channel. The video is available on my makeup plsylist. My skin is not 100% even, but I am satisfied enough with my results now compared to when I was younger. As I said, adding skincare products with niacinamide is the main reason my skin is much more even out now.

Your skin looks fantastic. Great video on niacinamide … a few months ago I added it to my skincare routine … the results have been fantastic… I used actives every day (retinol at night and vitamin c during the day) … the biggest plus of niacinamide has been the brightness. …

@@dianefudge4498 Thank you for the compliment ! I am interested to know in which step you use niacinamide since you already use vit C in the morning?

I was a regular user of retinol at night and vitamin c in the morning - so when I added niacinamide -at night it’s essence first then niacinamide serum followed by retinol serum then moisturizer In the morning it’s brightening toner/ essence, niacinamide serum, vitamin c serum, moisturizer, lots of sunscreen

@@dianefudge4498 You have a well organized layering technique. Glad you found a way to make it work for you !

@@clothilderey6942 Merci beaucoup pour ce commentaire !!!

Thank you, and enjoy your Sunday!

You're welcome and I am glad it works for you. Your videos also really help me to make decisions before buying a new product !

Thank you. I am very glad you like them. I would do more of them if they did not take me sooooo much time to film and edit...

Hi, and so sorry to hear that :-( Usually when something does not work on my face I see if I can use it on my body , hands or scalp. You could try to use it as a primer/lotion on your hands just before applying your hands moisturizer before going to bed especially on your spa routine day. Hope it helps!

Hi! On my sunscreen video on the French brand SVR I reviewed several sunscreen including my go to body sunscreen (there is only that one I like and use). I explained quickly on that video that I very rarely use a body sunscreen. As a Black women skin cancer due to sun exposure (skin cancer not due to sun exposure do target Black people too but self skin examination or examination done by a Dermatologist is the best prevention...) is not a concern of mine. I only use body sunscreen when I have a risk of sunburn. I only get a risk of sunburn or sun damage when I get sun exposure for many hours non stop at a very high temperature. I may only get this type of exposure on vacations if I go to the beach or the river in the summer for many hours during the pick hours of the day (which I avoid as much as possible. I got one sunburn in my life around 20 years old and that time was enough to learn a life lesson !!!). Although that day in Paris was crazy hot I knew It was not enough to worry, plus I also spent some time in the shade. I grew up in South Of France and I also go to Congo on vacations so I have good knowledge on how my skin respond to the sun when in comes to sun damage or sunburn. Also as a Black women with dark skin I also need some proper exposure to get enough vit D. I don't want to rely on supplements in the summer too ( as per my annual blood tests I certainly need supplements in the winter ) Thanks for the question. I actually plan on making a video soon about this topic on where, how, why and when exactly I wear sunscreen as I get those type of questions a lot. You reminded me that I should seriously work on that video!

@@HereDiianas yes you are low risk for cancer and sun burn but that accumulative unprotected sun exposure can age your skin and make it look crepey!

​@jam6web84 I live in Paris where the sun is out most of the year... Have you been to any African countries? Have you looked at people's skin there... I guess not but I have. I am from Congo which is in Central Africa, on the equator line. It is the reguon in the world with the highest UV index all year around and guess what... Congolese people on average look much more younger than most white people I have ever met although in Congo none wear sunscreens. So why should I be worried when I live in France, in Paris. For work I used to work in South India in Chennai many years ago (you can see that on old videos) where this Asian population is more dark skinned and they also look much younger than caucasians although the weather is also crazy hot there and most again do not wear sunscreens. The only reason I wear sunscreens on my face is to manage hyperpimentation due to my acne not because of skin aging and that is something I often repeat in my videos to not misinformed people on my reasons. Looking at my dad, my mum, my oldest sisters, aunts, oldest cousins etc who for the most never worn sunscreens and for the most have spend their life in Congo.... Trust me I am not worried about early creepy skin at all. And if I do get creepy skin at 90 years old I'll be fine with that, at 90 I'll have more important worries than wrinkles. Between my parents, great uncles...the ages range between 65 t0 84 and I still have not seen creepy skin although they've spent most of their life under Congolese'sun. So yeah maybe at 90 the creepy skin will appear. You should look up Dr Lim's video who is a Dermatologist in Australia. He made a video years ago on UA-cam explaining some of the known reasons on why Black people's skin ages much slower. You'll learn something. There is a reason behind the term "Black don't crack" When it comes to Black people unless you got extremely unlucky with your genetic lottery, your skin will age slower like the very vast majority of Black people. Now, lifestyle, illness, stress, diet, smoking, drugs, alcohol will affect anyone's skin. So my most important skin aging and health tools is to focus on my lifestyle. I don't drink, I don't smoke, I eat healthy, I work out often, I am healthy thankfully, I am surrounded by great people which makes it easy to manage my stress if I have to face it, and so far in my life I have always adapted this lifestyle. Some use suncreens to protect their skin from sunburn, cancer and skin aging because they are at high risk with their low amount of melanin and some do not share those risks and can never get enough vitD in winter because of how much melanin they have and use summer to get it naturally because vitD is very important for health. A one size fits all approach does not always work when it comes to medecine especially in Dermatology which is why they had to implement the Fitzpatrick system. Sometimes you have to look at the individual to understand what benefit them and what work against them. And the answer is not always the same for different individuals.

I hope it will work for you. Don't hesitate to keep me updated. I like to know how products work for others :-)

Hi ! Depending on where you live you can find some at a superdrug (like Aveeno in Canada, US, or in the UK) or at the French Pharmacy (like Eucerin for France), or at any Sephora like The Ordinary, Kiehl's or Drunk Elephant or on the brand website only like DRMTLGY and Dr Sam's. But if you do a Google search search, you'll see that they can all be ordered online.

Hi, there are many things "said" to be cancerous when it comes to cosmetics. If it was proven to be cancerous it would not be allowed on the market. I know that some brands love to call themselves "clean" and others "toxic" as a marketing strategy in their favour. I know that some websites use AI technology to tell if this or that product is "cancerous" /"toxic" or not although their AI don't do real analysis but gather general information based on "some" studies....and it also ignores the fact that the concentration of the ingredients also matters plus they don't even know that information. Just like the sun is cancerous does not mean that any level of sun is cancerous. I also do my own research and I am not concerned about the products I share on my channel. With that being said I also I understand that some may have their own concerns. Personally when it comes to health, cancer etc... I don't worry about cosmetic much, I mainly focus on my lifestyle choices and diet because there are way more clear evidence there. You can now found the brand Altruist on multiple French website: www.pharmacyclub.net/fr/luxury-beauty/solaire/protection-solaire-visage/altruist-dermatologist-sunscreen-spf50-100ml-24?srsltid=AfmBOooL-nbTAvf5jn-TEfrRIYcMvdTiDbSHbRG0zK9MnIUBERUtNqDW www.maquibeauty.fr/altruist-creme-solaire-dermatologist-sunscreen-spf-50-100ml-p-68714.html www.beautytheshop.com/fr/solaire/protection-solaire-visage/altruist-dermatologist-sunscreen-spf50-100ml-24?srsltid=AfmBOoqUhn-2Ukx4Ru4dzC0qCLBUv3KoTxA75Vs3Rd-QZo05yfZTKfH9

@@HereDiianas ahh, I understand better now. Thanks for your thoughtful reply. I really appreciate it. 🤗🙇🏼‍♀️ After some researches, i found something worth sharing. Ae you aware in Altruism SFP50, there is octocrylene which is transformed and degraded within the bottles themselves into benzophenone, a compound suspected of being a carcinogenic endocrine disruptor? In 2023, the French National Health and Safety Agency asked the French government to ban the use of octocrylene in sunscreens because of the health and environmental risks associated with this chemical substance. Some scientific publications had warned of its carcinogenic potential. In 2021, researchers from the Microbial Biodiversity and Biotechnology Laboratory at the Banyuls-sur-Mer Oceanological Observatory (Sorbonne University/CNRS) and their American colleagues carried out a study on the ageing of 15 sunscreens and anti-ageing products sold in France and the United States. Published in 2021 in the journal of the American Chemical Society Chemical Research in Toxicology, the results of this study point to another undesirable effect of octocrylene. Over time, octocrylene transforms and degrades within the bottles themselves into benzophenone, a compound suspected of being a carcinogenic endocrine disruptor and a major environmental pollutant, particularly for coral. Just food for thought. And like you said , everyone has different interpretations of their own safety.

Sorry I was so much in a rush that I forgot. But I wore the same outfit with the same shoes (different bag bought years ago in a random small boutique in South India) last year and shared pictures on Instagram. They are actually my last pictures on IG : instagram.com/p/CxztCa7Ia0K/?igsh=cm51dnR5anZ4enNq

Thank you so much. The dress is old it's from the French brand Caroll. I bought the bag on sale 40% off that is till ongoing. I left the link in the description box.

Sorry it did not work for you either ...

Sorry to hear that :-(

Definitely yes !

Thank you so much. That's so nice !!!

Oh waaaw I am very sorry to hear that...

. Hi, non-comedogenic is not a regulated term. Any brand can use it if they want to. There is no test to show that a product is comedogenic or not. The only thing that Dermatologists do not recommend to people with oily/acne prone skin is to prevent using pure oil on the face or moisturizer with a high level of oil in it. There are plenty of products that I have used that broke me out although they're made for acne-prone skin or supposed to be non-comedogenic, or perfect for sensitive skin..... But those same products may work wonders on others. So those terms can't be used as a reference. All you can do is to prevent products with ingredients that cause your skin to break out if you know them.... Otherwise the only way to find out is to test a product and hope for the best.

@@HereDiianas thank you very much, you helped me a lot 🙏

I am so sorry it did not work for you either :-(

Hi and thank you for sharing your story. I hope this sunscreen will work for you otherwise I have a playlist where I have reviewed many other sunscreens. Hope it helps !

Of course!!

Thank you and I am glad you enjoyed the video !

It's so good!

If they were easy to make I would make way more of it...

I am not the only one who does not put all of their products on a pedestal then... But I must say that their sunscreens are way better than most European or American brands.

@@HereDiianas I am going to try their sunscreens

​@@butterfly9274 Check out my sunscreens playlist. I reviewed many of them. The Japanese ones I tried are also good. It's also on the playlist.

@@HereDiianasI want to try Korean sunscreens, too.

​@HarrisPilton789 You should give it a try!

You're welcome. Hope you're doing well !!!

Sorry to hear that. If your skin is dehydrated you should watch the video I am posting later today because you may find something for that you'll like.

Same here gave me allergies omg i wasted my money

I sm sorry for you :-( ​@Rienne0703

I absolutely love it. It has become one of my staple. You can easily adjust the level of moisture depending on the quantity of products you apply which is not the case with every moisturizer. For the summer my oily skin needs something lighter but I will buy it again in next fall/winter/spring. They often have discounts which makes it worth it when you look at the ration price/quantity. I think that dry skin could also enjoy it in the summer and normal skin types can enjoy it all year around. It's one of my best discovery this year.

Thank you for your feedback and for the compliment ! I am glad you like it too. It is sold in a small and big packagings but in France the fragrance-free version can only be found in the big packaging !

Hi, I have heard that www.pharmashopdiscount.com/ and www.pharmashopi.com/ do ship French skincare to the USA but I have not tried it myself. I only tried the spritz / oil base body sunscreen called "eau solaire hydratante" the translation would be close to moisturizing sunny water; the one that comes in a transparent bottle. I liked it too. I just prefer the crackling milk better. Hope it helps and if you buy from those websites please let me know how it is so I can advise other American based viewers better. Thanks !

Maybe.... I don't have any French, American, Japanese brandS that work perfectly for me. Some works and some don't. I have reviewed several K beauty products that I love and work great for me. This product and others did not. Rarely can everything from one brand, let alone all brands from one country work for anyone.

I have hit or miss success with different products. So, for me, it's not an all or nothing thing for me.

Fingers crossed for you !

Hi and thank you for sharing information. I did not know the "what's in my jar" website so I looked it up, but for the sunscreen you mentioned... I am confused. Avène is a French brand. French brands do not disclose the concentration of each sunscreen ingredient because they don't have to, unlike US brands that must do it under FDA US law. This website disclosed very specific concentrations of the sunscreen ingredients which has never been communicated by the brand... 1.7% or 2.4%... They say that the UV filters are in very low concentration but do not say what would be the right concentration for each filter , for those specific filters and for those specific 4 filters altogether in this specific formula. That is 3 very different things. Avobenzone (an old chemical filter) and ethylhexyl triazone ( a recent chemical filter) for instance are different chemical/organic filters. The concentration required for each individual filter is going to differ but they just slumped all chemical filters together and make the same assessment for all. Plus from what I see this is an American website and those filters have not been used or studied the same in the US yet since they are still not allowed by the FDA. So what is truly their knowledge of those specific filters? What I see is only generalizations and approximations. For instance they say chemical sunscreen rarely give a "white cast". Is it a review about this sunscreen or general information about chemical sunscreens.... If it's general information why do they associate it with a specific product. I checked and saw that this website use an AI algorithm for its "reviews". I also see that there is no cosmetic chemist in their teams who could adjust or analyse the results given by the AI. Yes there is a Dermatologist in their team but Dermatologist are not cosmetic chemists they don't have the degree the expertise the experience and the network of other cosmetic chemists to get even more knowledge. They are not the one creating products in the lab of following cosmetic legislations and chemist rules in the creation of those products. I am actually very surprised that a Physician would agree to be associated to this website when Dr are usually all about personalization, being specific, and accurate... To be honest I trust the brand Avène more than this website. Avène has been around in France for many years and to my knowledge they never faced a scandal and seem to have a solid team of cosmetic chemists. There was a sunscreen scandal in France many years ago (lower SPF than what's advertised) I remember, but Avène to my knowledge was not part of it. Also their suncreens are used a lot here in the seummer and so far I did not hear about consumers complaints... So unless a proper lab, check this sunscreen and find a lower SPF that what is advertised like it happened with Purito and many other Korean brands I would trust them. But yes when it comes to sunscreens and what the brand tells us you can only trust the brand and hope they did their job which is why when I review sunscreens I do not spend that much time analysing such or such sunscreen ingredients nor I do I repeat what the brand says as facts since I don't know. Nobody know... They say this filter is better, this filter fight blue light but they do their own study to do so.... So we won't know until large independent studies are done. And those studies would only be done on each filter not entire products. Complicated...That's why I prefer to say what the brand tells us..... Because only a proper lab analysis could tell us the truth. Otherwise I just try to know more about brands to see if they are trustworthy or not... that's the best I can do.

@@HereDiianas Thank you for your answer! Initially, as i have noted, i would love to keep my clearance sunscreen, as it felt really comfortable on my face, but i couldn't, since it turned out extremely shiny on my oily skin. And since i absolutely love Avene, and saw that on your skin, the ultra fluid sunscreen looks similar to the way that Eucerin Oil control dry touch looks on my skin, i am even more tempted to try the ultra fluid! It is an opportunity to rule out the alcohol of Eucerin (also with the Eucerin one, in extreme heat, i feel that it kind of melts with the sweat on my skin, ending in white streaks, that are not so flatering). So, i might give the Avene one a try and see how it keeps with the extremely hot, and sometimes humid, Greek summer! One thing i don't understand is why Avene recomments applying only one finger of sunscreen for the face and neck, since the correct amount is 1/4 of a teaspoon (that is approximately two fingers of product). Ps: and yes, you are abolutely correct! There is not such a thing as a truly matte sunscreen, for oily skin! 😉

Thank you so much, that's so nice. I am wearing Lisa Eldridge Luxuriously Lucent lipstick "Love of my life" paired with Charlotte Tilbury lip pencil "Pillow talk intense". I have a video about my favourite makeup products and this lipstick and lip pencil are in it. My foundation here is also from Lisa Eldridge and I have a full review on it on this channel also. Just check my "makeup playlist" if you want to know more....

Hi and yes all Avène sunscreens from this line "the orange line" all contain TriAsorB which is said to protect against blue light=visible light.
