Yay! I’m glad you like the pipette... it’s the one I recommended! I stock up on like 3-4 bottles every time they have 40% off sales. I wear sunscreen twice a day on my face so I can’t be spending a lot of money on sunscreen. I love that it’s spf 50 too!
Ahh I have been waiting for this!! I was so interested to hear what you thought of the Paula’s Choice Calm sunscreen. I use the other formula for dry skin (I have extremely dry and dehydrated skin) and love it! I’m surprised more people don’t talk about that line of skincare from Paula’s Choice. Thanks for such great reviews of sunscreens every year 💖
Also love that you do this round up every year. Recommendations for next years video supergoop’s mineral sunscreens: mineral matte and the sheer screen.
It is so helpful that you show us application, finished look and how it looks with make up. Thanks for putting in that effort. That must have been a lot of work, but it is so helpful!
Would love to hear your thoughts on the new Native sunscreens-they have facial spf and body spf. It’s all mineral-non-nano zinc oxide. Facial spf costs $14-seems like a really great price point. Would love more info on how it wears!
I think it wears great. I think she put a review out last year??? Native goes on smoothly and sinks in fast, and wears well under makeup. Better than anything out last year at that price point.
can I just say I'm obsessed to the fact you filmed close to your actually skin , and show how the products looks it really helps me out! Compare to all these blurry look effects, really appreciate thank you !
This was awesome!!! 👏🏻👏🏻 I can't even imagine how much work you put into this, and it is very appreciated. So much helpful information! 💜 Good to know that the Unsun is similar to the Bliss Block Star. I wanted to love the Block Star, but the more I used it the more my skin hated it. I was so bummed. I suspect it was the lavender oil, so that's great to know maybe I should avoid the Unsun as well. I will definitely be trying the Pipette instead. Thank you so much for the recommendation! What would you say the dry down is like? So many sunscreens leave my face and neck a bit tacky and it drives me nuts. It's hard to find sunscreens that dry down smooth. Thanks, Sarah! I hope you have a great weekend. 🌻🦋✨
Ahh good question! The Pipette definitely doesn’t set like the Bliss one, it does stay a bit tacky on the neck so that might bother you! Maybe the Paula’s Choice Super-Light Daily Wrinkle Defense would be better for you? It sets down but feels much more weightless than the Bliss! Hope that helps!
Paula’s Choice ultra light wrinkle defense spf 30 is my absolute favourite. Also, in Europe where I am from, la roche-posay sunscreens are amazing, though chemical ones. :)
I'm from Europe too. My problem with La Roche Posay is that it is such a confusing brand to me. They have great options, but they also have options with a lot of alcohol and fragrance. And somehow it's hard to keep them apart. They all look so much alike and have similar names. I gave up on the brand. Love Paula's Choice!
Love these videos so much! There’s so many options out there and having focused reviews on one video is awesome. I don’t need a new spf because I have a backup but it’s always nice to know what to buy next. I do a lot of research when it comes to spf! Thank you for another awesome video!
Just a day or two ago my friend was telling me how great Pipette spf was on her young son. Now you saying you love it for yourself! Awesome to hear about!
I clicked so fast, been looking forward this one! I am really surprised so many people like the Bliss one because it looked so horrible on my skin, the scent was really strong and it never felt like it set down completely. The colour also looked straight up orange on me unfortunately.. I'm definitely intrigued to try the Pipette one since it's so affordable 👀
I am stunned about the Pipette! I've had trouble finding somehing mineral that's lightweight, untinted, and economical. (My current one is from make p:rem, which isn't cruelty-free and is discontinued anyway...) Thanks so much for doing these every year! It is such a valuable resource.
Heads up for everyone that the Pipette one is at Marshall's/TJ Maxx sometimes too! I got mine for $7, so an even better price on an already affordable product! I know a lot of people can be weary of shopping at those stores, but sunscreen has the expiration date right on the package(mine is good until 09/2023) and this sunscreen has a seal over the opening so you an be absolutely sure the product hasn't been touched. I just got mine and haven't opened it yet since I'm finishing my other one first, so I was super excited when you continued to not mention it meaning it was a high ranking one. I'm glad I picked it up!
The Pipette baby lotions are also great!! I use them as body lotions in the summer - lightweight, sensitive skin-friendly, but still hydrating. My fave scent is Rose + Geranium, it smells more herbal than floral to me, and the scent is non-irritating.
Hi, sunscreen junkie here who’s tried it all too and I have some great recommendations. The beloved Misha bb cream with spf 42 light complexion should get #13 or 21, medium skin tones #27 or 29. But a high end one that’s exactly like the Misha (Misha is much less money too) is the J Dart+ Beauty Balm, spf 40. Also, the L’Oréal Serum Foundation spf 50 and the Maybelline Urban Coverage SPF 50. If you just want a fantastic sunscreen for the face, I’d highly recommend the Hawaiian Tropics Silk Hydration Weightless spf 30. It hydrates like a dream, gives a healthy, plump glow without looking or feeling greasy and works great alone or as a primer, giving a beautiful canvas for makeup. Pacifica Sea and Sheer spf 55 is great if you want a sunscreen, but it is just a good face sunscreen, that has the white thicker formula that blends into the skin but provides excellent sun protection while having really good ingredients. The Hawaiian Tropics Mineral skin Nourishing milk sunscreen says it’s tinted but it is only tinted pumping it out. Once you apply it looks and feels exactly like traditional sunscreen. I don’t know where the milky part or the tiny part came from. You get zero coverage and zero tint. Garnier green labs replimping serum cream is a beautiful face sunscreen as well with spf 30 and it gives a beautiful smoothness to the skin so it works great under makeup too and blends out easily without leaving a white cast. That is probably one of my favorite plain sunscreen other than the Hawaiian Tropics silk hydrating Weightless spf because it does function as a great hydrating lotion and primer.
OMG how have I just found your channel? I'm always looking for people who are dedicated to cruelty free products, thank you for being so aware of this!
I love your eye look!! Love love love colored eyeliner!! Haven't watched the whole video yet, but I have already loaded the Pipette sunscreen to my Ulta cart, just haven't pulled the trigger yet 🙃maybe this video will show me an even better one! Haha
I love the MDSolarScience Sunscreen SPF50. They had a sale at Costco, two 1.7oz for $20! Best physical sunscreen I've used! It has a cashmere feel as it states on the package and glides on so well. It also has a faint cast that even out my blemishes. I do not wear make-up, so it does a great job smoothing out my skin. It does not peel on me at all. I have oily skin, so it does help to hold back the oil. It does not feel heavy at all. The best benefit of it all is that it has Blue Light protection because I have hyperpigmentation! I suggest trying it for yourself if it sounds like something you would like!
Great video, Sarah! I also enjoyed the Bliss blockstar sunscreen and the amount of product in the tube is definitely less than other sunscreens I've used. I actually just finished it up and I tracked the usage. I used it 45 times in the span of less than 2 full months from the moment I opened it. Certainly not a bang for your buck product. Now I'm using the Cotz sensitive skin non-tinted sunscreen spf 40 and I have to say, it's reminding me of the Pipette sunscreen that you ranked #1. The main difference is the price, I mean how can you beat at $12 sunscreen for that amount of product! I think I'll pick up the Pipette sunscreen once I finish this one!
I love this! I (not very patiently) wait for this every year!! Aveeno has a water resistant sensitive skin mineral sunscreen. It does have a bit of a white cast and takes some rubbing in, but I like it well enough on my dry, medium skin tone.
I have to check out the Paula‘s Choice options you recommended as it‘s available in Germany and the website is trustworthy. I have to look for the Pipette one if I get it somewhere, seems like an amazing option for holidays where SPF has to be often reapplied and it won‘t drain my wallet with this price 🤣 thank you for the round up Sarah! ✨
My favorite mineral sunscreens are the Paula’s Choice ultra light wrinkle defense spf 30, Colorescience sunforgettable total face protection, EltaMD uv elements, and Skinceuticals physical fusion
The Paula's Choice Hydralight shine-free is my ultimate holy grail sunscreen on my oily skin 🥰 I've recently been testing out a (chemical) Korean sunscreen by Beauty of Joseon and it's been really lovely as well! Super moisturizing and really nice under makeup. I looked up that Mychelle one because I was curious and by the comments, it's been reformulated 😬 frosted glass bottle is the "new" formula and sounds like not as good. Bummer, I was curious! Edit: oh! I think I remember that Calm combo/oily sunscreen was supposed to replace the Hydralight line, but customers demanded they bring the other one back so they did 😂 I haven't tried the Calm one so I can't say I know the difference haha.
I’m so shocked that you don’t like the MDSolarSciences Mineral Creme Sunscreen- it’s my favorite. It does go on with a silicone primer feel, but 10-20 minutes later it’s the exact texture of my skin, it sinks in with no white cast, and never pills, breaks me out, or stings my eyes. This is why any beauty reviews are highly subjective and of course a product that someone swears by can be someone else’s nightmare- so always take any review with a grain of salt and try it for yourself! Oh, and I hate the Paula’s Choice Super Light Wrinkle Defense- it’s way too drying on me, and I do greatly prefer non-tinted SPF, but I do love their Defense Glow Moisturizer with SPF 30 and their Calm Mineral Moisturizer SPF 30 for normal to oily skin. The former does have a slight grey tinge that I have to conteract it’s a bit of bronzer, and the latter is just fine by itself, best for daily wear and not for the beach or hiking as I prefer a heavy duty sunscreen for that (either the MDSolarSciences one, the Elta MD UVClear SPF46 (a combo spf with physical and chemical filters) or the amazing australian Ultra Violette SPF that aren’t available in the US but are HG status).
hey sunshine gurl... i have been on the hunt for a great mineral sunscreen ...such perfect timming and i could not thank you enough for taking the time and effort of doing all this... i am disabled and have uncontroled very active lupus and fibro...my face with out a lupus flare is very white...this year is the first time that i have been outside more than ever!!!... besides when i was younger but for the last 10+ years i have been inside and when i would have to travel to the docs office they would want me to wear a light jacket while in the car things like that... this gave me so many options...and i thank you so very much...imma still a lil loss...dont want lavender smell lol even tho i do like it sprayed on my pillow at night lol just not on my face llolo... and total loss for the body either chemical or mineral...i do not think it would matter to me lol...anyways i will shut up now...just thank you so much... love all that you do...huggs n love suzette
Im so glad you had better luck this year. The Unsun one sounds like a great option, ill have to try it out when I need a new spf. Im on the quest to find a better body sunscreen. One that doesn’t have a strong scent or the awful spf scent. 🥴
Yay I was waiting for this!! Your top pick sounds amazing, I'm definitely thinking about picking it up next time I'm low on sunscreen (even if I don't want to stray from my beloved Kinship haha)
Have you tried the Australian Gold Botanical Tinted Face SPF 50 before? It’s my favorite right now, and as a freckle-face I really like the no-makeup makeup effect it gives!
@@SarahRoseBeauty I use the light to medium shade, it does look really dark out of the tube but even with an adequate amount for the SPF coverage, I don’t find it too dark for my light complexion. I would love to hear your thoughts if you try it!
I love Elta MD tinted physical in the squeeze tube, no pump, 3 ounces. Not oily but could be too dry for dry skin - I’m 52 but still break out. I just bought the MD Solar tinted and it’s so greasy I can’t believe it. I also love the Paula’s Choice glow sunscreen. I’ve been trying to use up my Aveeno Pure mineral sensitive skin and it’s really thick - actually accentuates my dry flakes and makes them white - I also just picked up the Pipette for $7 at TJ Maxx - I made sure it’s not expired.
Amazing video, so informative! I haven't had luck with mineral sunscreens, there's not as many available where I live, but I've found one chemical that doesn't sting around the eyes and works for me for now. I'm covered for this year, but I'll for sure try Paula's choice next year!
I bought two of the Pipette last night atTJ Maxx for $7.99 each before watching your video this morning. I had intended to use it on my body, but now I might try on my face as well. I have been using a tinted Vichy product and an un-tinted Clinique product, both SPF 60, on my face. Not sure whether they are water-resistant; haven’t thought to check!
We have very similar tastes in sunscreens! Haha! I do find your experience with the Pipette interesting though. I have normal to dry skin…I love the Kinship Self Reflect, Paula’s Choice Glow, the Josie Maran and I find the Pipette to be the most moisturizing, almost bordering on greasy on me. I do like it still though in winter/fall. My favorite find this year has been Naked Sundays Collagen Glow Mineral Sunscreen. It’s AMAZING and I think you would love it! It’s SPF50, 80 mins water resistant, 22.75% Zinc and moisturizing and glowy. It looks amazing alone and under makeup. It’s from Australia so I recommend ordering over $49 at once to get the free shipping and looking for sales/promo codes…you can almost always get it for 20% off too so look for codes and sales. Another favorite is the Elta MD UV Restore. It’s more moisturizing than the UV Elements if you’ve ever tried that. They’re both SPF40something. Anyway, love these videos! Excited to see what you find for next year…
Try the panoxyl mineral sunscreen! New fav. Good price, doesn’t leave a white cast on me, it leaves a very natural finish not oily or dry. I’m also like 90% sure it’s fragrance free
I've been wondering about that Mychelle one for a while. Sounds like it's a no for my dry skin. That Unsun sounds like I would like it. I'll keep it in mind when I go to buy a new one!
Have you reviewed the Australian Gold Tinted Sunscreen? I just did a quick search of your channel and I don't think you have? It's affordable, mineral, multiple shades, spf 50, and water resistant! Some people find it drying, but personally I don't, it has shea butter, glycerin, and squalane. (I have noticed if my skin is super dry it clings to some dry patches, but for me that's true of anything with a tint unless it's SUPER slippery, like the MD Solar Sciences). Cruelty Free Kitty says Australian Gold is cruelty free.
I love the Australian Gold sunscreen! It's one of my HG facial sunscreens, especially if I exercise outside. It lasts forever. Sweat beads up on it so it's definitely water resistant LOL. I personally think the tint can be enough coverage for me on some days, and it's kind of grippy with makeup so it makes a good primer too!
My fav is clinics its spf 50. And about $20. Slight yellow tint. It’s just enough to get rid of any white cast, and potentially help calm down a little bit of red or pinkness in your skin. It’s very thin in formula and im combo oily. Absolute perfection
I just checked out the Pipette sunscreen in Ulta's website and one of the questions asked if it was water resistant. Pipette customer service replied saying "Thanks for your question! Pipette Mineral Sunscreen Broad Spectrum SPF 50 is not water resistant, but stay tuned for exciting new product announcements coming this year." The post was made 7 months ago, so.... Maybe we'll see a water resistant version soon?....
idk if you have yet, but please try the blue lizard sunscreen! - spf 50+ - mineral - doesn’t harm the coral reefs - broad spectrum uva/uvb protection - doesn’t have oxybenzone
The bliss one looks pretty dark, I was surprised by that.. I'm also surprised that the pipette sunscreen turned out to be the favourite.. it sucks that most mineral sunscreens are more expensive than the chemical formulas so it's nice to see the pipette is so affordable.. I've tried the Paula's choice tinted spf and it's similar to the Australian gold tinted except it's more affordable and comes with 90ml.. I think the Paula's choice is a little thinner though.. l didn't see any that I'm interested in trying but I really enjoyed seeing this roundup of sunscreen this year!
I looooove the Mychelle SPF 50 as a makeup and then I powder over it. Your review of it is spot on!!! Im oily so it's very very nice for my skin. I was very interested in how it compared to the Ilia since I liked the Mychelle so much and I wanted to know if it would be worth it to find a good shade match between it or just stay with Mychelle and I think I'll just stay with the Mychelle. Thanks for answering my questions Sarah!!!!
I loved so much the SPFs from Paula’s Choice ❤ unfortunately, my skin changed quite a bit and for some reason I can’t tolerate some of their products anymore. For example, the tinted SPF makes my face red instead of evening out the skin, and it’s also too matte for my dry skin. The Defense one - at some point I felt some tingles when applying it and I couldn’t understand why… and no, they were not expired. The Calm one was the only one that I could apply without consequences, but it was a bit too glowy for my taste. Now I started giving chances to chemical and hybrid sunscreens, but I’m not very happy with what I found 😅 it feels like a lottery when trying a new sunscreen!
In my experience, all the MD Solarscience sunscreens have that silicone type feel. They don’t have silicone in them but it feels like a silicone primer.
I can’t use the Pipette. For some unknown reason, the smell of it turns my stomach. I can’t find a mineral SPF 50 that works for me. For everyday use, the Paula’s Choice Calm Normal to Dry or Recovery Dry to Very Dry are the best for my skin that I’ve found. The Burt’s Bees sunscreen turned into a dry and pilled mess after a couple of hours-such a shame. I was disappointed.
Due to skin cancer, sunscreen should actually be considered an essential medical product not a beauty product to fight sunspots & wrinkles. We do t have enough good, affordable sunscreens in America. part of the problem is government regulations that require expensive, long term studies to get a new ingredient or sunscreen approved by the FDA & it’s also a low profit product, making it something that companies don’t want to waste their their time & resources on for both reasons. I hope our attitudes will change soon. It’s a shame we don’t have great, affordable kid’s facial sunscreen as a thing. We really should be putting a nice sunscreen lotion on our kid’s faces every morning after they brush their teeth to get them into the habit from the start. It’s too expensive now for most families to even afford it, & of course, we need to have formulas that wouldn’t get in their eyes when they sweat & not irritate their skin.
Thicker the film the better the protection. I dont care as much about look and feel as I do about ppd value. But since im American, we don't really get much information about UVA protection. Probably because most of our sunscreens have garbage UVA protection. Which sucks because those are the aging rays!
What a fun eye look 🤩 Oh my goodness… So many sunscreens. I wonder which one is best for my sensitive eyes, I’m currently using super goop play, or unseen sunscreen. They didn’t used to bother my eyes but it seems like they are now. So frustrating. 😏
@@SarahRoseBeauty I’m confused because I looked them up and it says they’re line are all mineral. Either way they burn my eyes, so I’m very interested to try pipette 😃 that is a very good deal 👌🏻😎
@@SarahRoseBeauty I looked them up, and they both said they were mineral sunscreens… I ordered the pipette and it burned my eyes like crazy, I guess there aren’t really any sunscreens that don’t burn my eyes. 😣
Hi Sarah. What is the consistency of the Pipette sunscreen.Im so confused because I ordered it from they're website and the consistency was watery. Yet when I watch some video reviews on it it comes out like a thick lotion. I couldn't really tell in this video what the actual consistency of it was when you put it on. Thanks 🙂
You might just need to shake it! It should be a cream consistency. When I first got mine it was super separated from being out in the cold so I had to shake it and wait a little while for it to go back to the right texture. It definitely shouldn’t be watery!
@@SarahRoseBeauty sorry for sounding stupid but T is usually associated with Tablespoon and t is usually associated with teaspoon. It looked like you used a ton more than 1/4 teaspoon so I'm confused. Sorryyyyyy!!!

Yay! I’m glad you like the pipette... it’s the one I recommended! I stock up on like 3-4 bottles every time they have 40% off sales. I wear sunscreen twice a day on my face so I can’t be spending a lot of money on sunscreen. I love that it’s spf 50 too!
I actually had to throw it away a MONTH after I got it. It was so liquidy and didn’t work out.
Your 30s is getting excited about sunscreen reviews 🔥
Ahh I have been waiting for this!! I was so interested to hear what you thought of the Paula’s Choice Calm sunscreen. I use the other formula for dry skin (I have extremely dry and dehydrated skin) and love it! I’m surprised more people don’t talk about that line of skincare from Paula’s Choice.

I agree!! It seems like some of PC's lines are way more talked about than others. I am so interested in the dry skin version of the Calm SPF now!
This video could not be more detailed and well done. 👏👏👏 THANK YOU for all your hard work. It is so so so very appreciated.
Thank you Stephanie!! I had so much fun making this video!
Also love that you do this round up every year. Recommendations for next years video supergoop’s mineral sunscreens: mineral matte and the sheer screen.
Thank you Jenny!! I’ll add those to my list!
Thank you so much for this series! I'm new to SPF and the whole market is overwhelming. Amazing work as always!
Thank you so much for watching!!💞
A great day for sunscreen reviews--Angie Hot & Flashy posted hers today, too. I'm excited to see your faves for this year.
I just saw that!! Love her videos!
So glad to see both you and HotandFlashy upload a mineral sunscreen video today!!
I know!! I always look forward to her sunscreen videos too!
It is so helpful that you show us application, finished look and how it looks with make up. Thanks for putting in that effort. That must have been a lot of work, but it is so helpful!

I have to check out the Paula‘s Choice options you recommended as it‘s available in Germany and the website is trustworthy. I have to look for the Pipette one if I get it somewhere, seems like an amazing option for holidays where SPF has to be often reapplied and it won‘t drain my wallet with this price 🤣 thank you for the round up Sarah! ✨
My favorite mineral sunscreens are the Paula’s Choice ultra light wrinkle defense spf 30, Colorescience sunforgettable total face protection, EltaMD uv elements, and Skinceuticals physical fusion
Love this video! thank you for including demos!
Thank you for your dedication in reviewing these sunscreens. So many options to choose from!
Thank you so much for watching!!💞☀️
I’ve gone through three bottles of the Pipette sunscreen- it’s my favorite and you can get it for a good price on sale on their site.
The Paula's Choice Hydralight shine-free is my ultimate holy grail sunscreen on my oily skin 🥰 I've recently been testing out a (chemical) Korean sunscreen by Beauty of Joseon and it's been really lovely as well! Super moisturizing and really nice under makeup.
I looked up that Mychelle one because I was curious and by the comments, it's been reformulated 😬 frosted glass bottle is the "new" formula and sounds like not as good. Bummer, I was curious!
Edit: oh! I think I remember that Calm combo/oily sunscreen was supposed to replace the Hydralight line, but customers demanded they bring the other one back so they did 😂 I haven't tried the Calm one so I can't say I know the difference haha.
Thanks for putting in whether or not there is fragrance!
That kopari one looks so pretty on your face!
I’m so shocked that you don’t like the MDSolarSciences Mineral Creme Sunscreen- it’s my favorite. It does go on with a silicone primer feel, but 10-20 minutes later it’s the exact texture of my skin, it sinks in with no white cast, and never pills, breaks me out, or stings my eyes. This is why any beauty reviews are highly subjective and of course a product that someone swears by can be someone else’s nightmare- so always take any review with a grain of salt and try it for yourself! Oh, and I hate the Paula’s Choice Super Light Wrinkle Defense- it’s way too drying on me, and I do greatly prefer non-tinted SPF, but I do love their Defense Glow Moisturizer with SPF 30 and their Calm Mineral Moisturizer SPF 30 for normal to oily skin. The former does have a slight grey tinge that I have to conteract it’s a bit of bronzer, and the latter is just fine by itself, best for daily wear and not for the beach or hiking as I prefer a heavy duty sunscreen for that (either the MDSolarSciences one, the Elta MD UVClear SPF46 (a combo spf with physical and chemical filters) or the amazing australian Ultra Violette SPF that aren’t available in the US but are HG status).
hey sunshine gurl... i have been on the hunt for a great mineral sunscreen ...such perfect timming and i could not thank you enough for taking the time and effort of doing all this... i am disabled and have uncontroled very active lupus and fibro...my face with out a lupus flare is very white...this year is the first time that i have been outside more than ever!!!... besides when i was younger but for the last 10+ years i have been inside and when i would have to travel to the docs office they would want me to wear a light jacket while in the car things like that... this gave me so many options...and i thank you so very much...imma still a lil loss...dont want lavender smell lol even tho i do like it sprayed on my pillow at night lol just not on my face llolo... and total loss for the body either chemical or mineral...i do not think it would matter to me lol...anyways i will shut up now...just thank you so much... love all that you do...huggs n love suzette
Im so glad you had better luck this year. The Unsun one sounds like a great option, ill have to try it out when I need a new spf. Im on the quest to find a better body sunscreen. One that doesn’t have a strong scent or the awful spf scent. 🥴
Yay I was waiting for this!! Your top pick sounds amazing, I'm definitely thinking about picking it up next time I'm low on sunscreen (even if I don't want to stray from my beloved Kinship haha)
Have you tried the Australian Gold Botanical Tinted Face SPF 50 before? It’s my favorite right now, and as a freckle-face I really like the no-makeup makeup effect it gives!
I still haven't! How's the tint on that one? I'm worried it may be a bit too dark for me!
@@SarahRoseBeauty I use the light to medium shade, it does look really dark out of the tube but even with an adequate amount for the SPF coverage, I don’t find it too dark for my light complexion. I would love to hear your thoughts if you try it!
I was going to recommend this SPF as well! It is mineral, tinted, SPF 50, AND water-resistant. I personally do well with the light/medium tint.
I love Elta MD tinted physical in the squeeze tube, no pump, 3 ounces. Not oily but could be too dry for dry skin - I’m 52 but still break out. I just bought the MD Solar tinted and it’s so greasy I can’t believe it. I also love the Paula’s Choice glow sunscreen. I’ve been trying to use up my Aveeno Pure mineral sensitive skin and it’s really thick - actually accentuates my dry flakes and makes them white - I also just picked up the Pipette for $7 at TJ Maxx - I made sure it’s not expired.
Amazing video, so informative!
I haven't had luck with mineral sunscreens, there's not as many available where I live, but I've found one chemical that doesn't sting around the eyes and works for me for now. I'm covered for this year, but I'll for sure try Paula's choice next year!
My favorite mineral sunscreen is from " nov" (a Japanese brand named). If you can get it, you must try it!
I bought two of the Pipette last night atTJ Maxx for $7.99 each before watching your video this morning. I had intended to use it on my body, but now I might try on my face as well.
I have been using a tinted Vichy product and an un-tinted Clinique product, both SPF 60, on my face. Not sure whether they are water-resistant; haven’t thought to check!
Been waiting for this!!! And I know the battle. I can only do mineral for skin sensitivity reasons and man is it hard!
Ugh it really can be quite the struggle!! 😭
We have very similar tastes in sunscreens! Haha! I do find your experience with the Pipette interesting though. I have normal to dry skin…I love the Kinship Self Reflect, Paula’s Choice Glow, the Josie Maran and I find the Pipette to be the most moisturizing, almost bordering on greasy on me. I do like it still though in winter/fall. My favorite find this year has been Naked Sundays Collagen Glow Mineral Sunscreen. It’s AMAZING and I think you would love it! It’s SPF50, 80 mins water resistant, 22.75% Zinc and moisturizing and glowy. It looks amazing alone and under makeup. It’s from Australia so I recommend ordering over $49 at once to get the free shipping and looking for sales/promo codes…you can almost always get it for 20% off too so look for codes and sales. Another favorite is the Elta MD UV Restore. It’s more moisturizing than the UV Elements if you’ve ever tried that. They’re both SPF40something. Anyway, love these videos! Excited to see what you find for next year…
Try the panoxyl mineral sunscreen! New fav. Good price, doesn’t leave a white cast on me, it leaves a very natural finish not oily or dry. I’m also like 90% sure it’s fragrance free
Thanks I’ll look into it!
Thank you for this!!! I want to try the Kinship and the new Cocokind that just came out.
You need to try the R&R Sun Serum, it's also mineral based. LOVE it!
I've been wondering about that Mychelle one for a while. Sounds like it's a no for my dry skin. That Unsun sounds like I would like it. I'll keep it in mind when I go to buy a new one!
Have you reviewed the Australian Gold Tinted Sunscreen? I just did a quick search of your channel and I don't think you have? It's affordable, mineral, multiple shades, spf 50, and water resistant! Some people find it drying, but personally I don't, it has shea butter, glycerin, and squalane. (I have noticed if my skin is super dry it clings to some dry patches, but for me that's true of anything with a tint unless it's SUPER slippery, like the MD Solar Sciences). Cruelty Free Kitty says Australian Gold is cruelty free.
I love the Australian Gold sunscreen! It's one of my HG facial sunscreens, especially if I exercise outside. It lasts forever. Sweat beads up on it so it's definitely water resistant LOL. I personally think the tint can be enough coverage for me on some days, and it's kind of grippy with makeup so it makes a good primer too!
My fav is clinics its spf 50. And about $20. Slight yellow tint. It’s just enough to get rid of any white cast, and potentially help calm down a little bit of red or pinkness in your skin. It’s very thin in formula and im combo oily. Absolute perfection
I just checked out the Pipette sunscreen in Ulta's website and one of the questions asked if it was water resistant. Pipette customer service replied saying "Thanks for your question! Pipette Mineral Sunscreen Broad Spectrum SPF 50 is not water resistant, but stay tuned for exciting new product announcements coming this year." The post was made 7 months ago, so.... Maybe we'll see a water resistant version soon?....
Omg that would be amazing! I hope so!
I found the pipette sunscreen at tj maxx today for $6.99 😌
I also love the pipette mineral sunscreen as it's affordable and very easy to apply.
Thank-you so much, this was so helpful! xx
idk if you have yet, but please try the blue lizard sunscreen!
- spf 50+
- mineral
- doesn’t harm the coral reefs
- broad spectrum uva/uvb protection
- doesn’t have oxybenzone
Love Love Love the Mychelle sunscreen but it's dries my skin so much, doesn't matter how much I moisturize my skin.
I bougth the pippete spf at walmart, baby section. I love it !
MYChelle over Korean sunscreen Joseon is perfection
Have you tried the Everyday Humans Resting Beach Face Sunscreen Serum? The consistency is like a serum so it feels like and goes under makeup nicely
I haven’t! Will look into it for sure!
Oh my goodness but your makeup is SO GORGEOUS in this video!! If peach didn't make me look sick I'd be doing exactly that to my face right now lol.
Aww thank you!!💞
The bliss one looks pretty dark, I was surprised by that.. I'm also surprised that the pipette sunscreen turned out to be the favourite.. it sucks that most mineral sunscreens are more expensive than the chemical formulas so it's nice to see the pipette is so affordable.. I've tried the Paula's choice tinted spf and it's similar to the Australian gold tinted except it's more affordable and comes with 90ml.. I think the Paula's choice is a little thinner though.. l didn't see any that I'm interested in trying but I really enjoyed seeing this roundup of sunscreen this year!
Thanks for watching!!
I’ve been waiting to buy the Bliss Block Star in hopes you’d review it first lol!!
I looooove the Mychelle SPF 50 as a makeup and then I powder over it. Your review of it is spot on!!! Im oily so it's very very nice for my skin. I was very interested in how it compared to the Ilia since I liked the Mychelle so much and I wanted to know if it would be worth it to find a good shade match between it or just stay with Mychelle and I think I'll just stay with the Mychelle.
Thanks for answering my questions Sarah!!!!
So glad I could help!! Yes the Ilia one is quite dewy so may not be the best for oily skin!
My fave mineral only so far is Round Lab 365 Derma Relief Sun Cream SPF 50+/PA+++ but I want to also try that Biossance sheer zinc + squalene one
I have that bliss sunscreen! I got it in a fab fit fun box and I really like it
I loved so much the SPFs from Paula’s Choice ❤ unfortunately, my skin changed quite a bit and for some reason I can’t tolerate some of their products anymore.
For example, the tinted SPF makes my face red instead of evening out the skin, and it’s also too matte for my dry skin. The Defense one - at some point I felt some tingles when applying it and I couldn’t understand why… and no, they were not expired. The Calm one was the only one that I could apply without consequences, but it was a bit too glowy for my taste.
Now I started giving chances to chemical and hybrid sunscreens, but I’m not very happy with what I found 😅 it feels like a lottery when trying a new sunscreen!
Josie Marian is my absolute favorite. It also comes in a fragrance free version.
It's soo good! I didn't know it came in a fragrance free version, I'll have to get that one next time!
Excellent 💖💖💖 have a good day 💖💖💖
In my experience, all the MD Solarscience sunscreens have that silicone type feel. They don’t have silicone in them but it feels like a silicone primer.
I can’t use the Pipette. For some unknown reason, the smell of it turns my stomach. I can’t find a mineral SPF 50 that works for me. For everyday use, the Paula’s Choice Calm Normal to Dry or Recovery Dry to Very Dry are the best for my skin that I’ve found. The Burt’s Bees sunscreen turned into a dry and pilled mess after a couple of hours-such a shame. I was disappointed.
Thank you for your thorough mineral SPF reviews. I love Elta Md tinted elements. It's water resistant. Have you tried it?
Thanks for watching!! I have heard great things about the Elta MD ones, unfortunately they aren't cruelty free so that's why I haven't tried them.
How do you deal with Pipette's greasiness?
Due to skin cancer, sunscreen should actually be considered an essential medical product not a beauty product to fight sunspots & wrinkles. We do t have enough good, affordable sunscreens in America. part of the problem is government regulations that require expensive, long term studies to get a new ingredient or sunscreen approved by the FDA & it’s also a low profit product, making it something that companies don’t want to waste their their time & resources on for both reasons. I hope our attitudes will change soon.
It’s a shame we don’t have great, affordable kid’s facial sunscreen as a thing. We really should be putting a nice sunscreen lotion on our kid’s faces every morning after they brush their teeth to get them into the habit from the start. It’s too expensive now for most families to even afford it, & of course, we need to have formulas that wouldn’t get in their eyes when they sweat & not irritate their skin.
Ooooh that Pipette one 👀
It’s so good!!!
Have you tried Rovectin Aqua Soothing Uv Protector? It's a Korean mineral sunscreen and is just *chef kiss*!
I haven’t!! I’ll have to check if it’s cruelty free!
Thicker the film the better the protection. I dont care as much about look and feel as I do about ppd value. But since im American, we don't really get much information about UVA protection. Probably because most of our sunscreens have garbage UVA protection. Which sucks because those are the aging rays!
What a fun eye look 🤩
Oh my goodness… So many sunscreens. I wonder which one is best for my sensitive eyes, I’m currently using super goop play, or unseen sunscreen. They didn’t used to bother my eyes but it seems like they are now. So frustrating. 😏
those are both chemical sunscreens so that's probably why they bother your eyes!!
@@SarahRoseBeauty ahhhh.
Lol, I probably could’ve looked that up but I saw your video first 😜
@@SarahRoseBeauty I’m confused because I looked them up and it says they’re line are all mineral. Either way they burn my eyes, so I’m very interested to try pipette 😃 that is a very good deal 👌🏻😎
@@SarahRoseBeauty I ordered pipette got it for $9.60 at Ulta 😃 can’t wait to try it thanks for the recommendation!! 😘♥️
@@SarahRoseBeauty I looked them up, and they both said they were mineral sunscreens… I ordered the pipette and it burned my eyes like crazy, I guess there aren’t really any sunscreens that don’t burn my eyes. 😣
Would love to know your thoughts on Cetaphil sheer mineral face liquid sunscreen SPF 50
Oh I was curious the best way to measure that you are using enough sunscreen? I’m always worried I may not be using enough 😂
Hi Sarah have you tried the new Tatcha all mineral sunscreen?
I haven’t!! That price is crazy haha 👀
Hi Sarah. What is the consistency of the Pipette sunscreen.Im so confused because I ordered it from they're website and the consistency was watery. Yet when I watch some video reviews on it it comes out like a thick lotion. I couldn't really tell in this video what the actual consistency of it was when you put it on. Thanks 🙂
You might just need to shake it! It should be a cream consistency. When I first got mine it was super separated from being out in the cold so I had to shake it and wait a little while for it to go back to the right texture. It definitely shouldn’t be watery!
I was actually interested in the myChelle sun shield and the reviews are noting that the formula has changed and causing reactions for consumers. 😭
Oh no!!
Was that 1/4 tsp or 1/4 ounce?
Tsp :)
@@SarahRoseBeauty sorry for sounding stupid but T is usually associated with Tablespoon and t is usually associated with teaspoon. It looked like you used a ton more than 1/4 teaspoon so I'm confused. Sorryyyyyy!!!
It was 1/4 teaspoon. It’s a lot more product than you’d think!
Is the pipette sunscreen unscented?
Yep!
What is that on your eye lids?? It looks red.
Eyeshadow??
