if that is how much sunscreen we actually need to apply on a daily basis, why on earth do they all come in 30-50ml bottles (max 100ml for face) ?! it's just not economically practical for most people to purchase a bottle of £30 sunscreen every 10 days!
Probably because most people still don't know the harm of sunlight, so rarely use it. What kind of sunscreen do you buy? Low priced sunscreen is usually just about 10 dollars or even lower here.
Garven Shar it’s still a dollar per day
check out bioderma's spray sunscreen spf 50 if you're in Europe. It's a good one and comes in 200ml. Still costs about 20 euros, but it's value for money
No offense to the good doctor, but given that she lives in London and is rocking a pair of Louboutin heels in the title sequence, something tells me she doesn't worry about a £30 bottle of sunscreen lasting her 10 days.
@@poppybell87 boots does some really high spf uva star sunscreens fot like 6.50 and there are plenty of face safe body sunscreens (especially child sunscreens) if you look hard :)
The lady in the light blue shirt is staring at the other lady like.. i dont know. Creepy?
Most people don't know what to do when a camera is pointed at them.
A lot of people are awkward on camera, lol.
Lmao I thought i was the only one who noticed
I knoooooow 🤣🤣
Yeah. I have a bitchy resting face though, say normalise looking however at rest
Thank you for that! very important.I'm 17 and use sunscreen everyday :)
if I need to let it "sit" after applying every layer of cream and make up, I need to get up like at 4 am...😂😂😂 who the hell got time for this???
8TheOry people who want good skin lol
that's what i am thinking too wkwkwk
LOL!!
You can do stuff for the 5-10 minutes, you don't have to sit there and do nothing.
8TheOry less time than quemo after cancer for not using sunscreen...that said manage your time accordingly. Usually takes more time to put makeup than skin care and protection!
i really wanna apply sunscreen but everytime, after a few hours goes by with sunscreen, i get too oily just like her even with a powder on. i just hope she can also talk about that in another video - how to avoid oily skin. cuz, there are some people that want that "dewey" look. and some dont. and i hope people respect both.
Sha u can try gel sunscreens
the beginning of the video, she mentions that the biggest problem seems to be formulation. How your sunscreen reacts to your foundation. That's my biggest problem too. I wish you would have went more into detail about the different sunscreen formulations and how to find the right one that will work with your makeup
try Heliocare gel version its great.
TheFluffy1966 Hi! After years of experimenting, I found Paula's Choice Resist Super Light Wrinkle Defence... Seriously the best. SPF 30+, feels just like a normal moisturiser, totally matte and oil free, fragrance free, full of vitamins and antioxidants, a perfect base and primer for foundation. Totally smooths over skin and blurs our imperfections, no white cast. I wear it every single day and no longer need a makeup primer. I put my makeup on at 6am and it lasts 10-12 hours every day in the Australian climate. Also very reasonably priced. If you can get your hands on Paula's Choice then I highly recommend. Paula's Choice sell sample sizes, if you wanted to try before committing to a full size. X
TheFluffy1966 Sunscreens with silica will cause pilling. Silica a particle similar in structure to sand.
I use the gel/cream La Roche Posay XL Athelios SPF 50. I have oily skin and extensuve melasma ; so high level SPF is compulsory for me. I have just ordered CoverFX custom cover drops to mix into my SPF. I can't wait to try them out together. my 5ml of SPF with the correct colour and cover for my skin. Fingers crossed.
Ruth McCoy how did you go with the cover fx drops with your sunscreen? Sorry I know this is an old comment
5 ml? WOW! That is a lot! I mean, my facial sunscreen is 65g. So I can't imagine how much sunscreen I would have to buy. And I'm pretty sure I would feel the urge to wash my face after that amount of product. :( I don't think I'll ever be able to feel comfortable wearing that much product.
Erika Vanessa Espinosa Fernández I've asked my dermatologist about this and he said that 1.25ml is enough product for your face - neck not included. Eventhough that is still a lot of sunscreen, it's a huge difference to 5ml.
Samantha Griffin
I use around Half of this, applied in 2 layers. I do use a bit more in summer to get the neck and boobs properly.
That's why u need a hat and sunglasses or long sleeves clothes. That amount sunscreen will easily break me out .
I use a little powder after this routine. That takes the shine out.
I always apply it on ears as well.
+TeruTeru Bozu great tip!
Me too, I'm very pale and if I don't I get burned. Also, have very short hair ;-) xx
even more sunscreen!! Yea! Not
My only concern is that Dr. Bunting's skin looks ridiculously shiny.
I disagree, She looks healthy....Only a dead body has totally matte skin! 🙄
+Kazz Argent no one said ALL matte. She's quite obviously over exfoliated. Embarrassingly so. There's "dewy" and then there's "soppy". She's the latter, IMO.
I totally agree
I get that no matter what SPF level I use or brand. I can use tons of powder to try to dry it down but no go.
The face does not naturally look oily unless it is sweating or naturally oily. People with normal skin look matte, without dying. That comment was pretty funny though. I picture the zombie apocalypse screeching for their sunscreen.
I think the doctor looks gorgeous - slightly shiny skin and all. Yes, great hair, great figure, the lot. Don't you wish you could look so good? She's certainly interested me in using sunscreen more than I do. And yes, the model's skin looked good after application of the screen. Actually, one thing that is ringing bells for me is that I often find sunscreen makes my ageing paws look better than most hand creams do. Just seem to look fresher and more healthy somehow! Memo: therefore, apply to face. Sorry, written a book here, lol.
Sunscree works even much more better on my dry skin than a primer wich dries my skin out and irritates it and not even make the makeup last long.
Don’t forget the ears!! 😀👂🏻
If we use 5ml per day a 50ml bottle would only last 10 days.
+MrDouxles there is no reason/need to reapply throughout the day unless you're out in the sun all day!!
Yeah, sunscreen now is the most expensive skincare product I have to pay! But I still believe in Dr Sam's professional advice.
That wouldn't bother me. It's most important item for your skin
Not even, you need to reapply.. haha
@@Mel-pb5xw actually chemical filters degrade on their own in addition to contact with ANY daylight not just direct bright sunlight. So id say 1 reapplication minimum is needed especially if your using acids or retinoids. I used to agree with you but now im getting small freckles near my hair line from not applying enough .
what sunscreen did you use here?
It's from the brand Obagi
at the most important part of the video, the camera switches to a watch her profile... great camerawork!
Dr. Sam made me proud and confident about my shiny skin!! 😎 if she looks awesome, I do too 😏✌️
Uhm... if you say most women do not want to put on sunscreen because it feels greasy, but this one leaves your face perfectly matte, why are you so shiny??? My fingers are itching to blot and powder you a bit!
Right? As much as I know what she's saying is true, I can't take her seriously. 😓
Is it really okay to use a damp beauty sponge or would it lessen the sun protection? Also should u wait a few mins before adding the sunscreen? Thankyou!!!!,😙☺
it's strange how dermatologists almost always use physical sunscreens ! since I'm of medium olive complection i hate the white outcast and almost always use chemical sunscreens , my go to is la roch posy lait
I've always stayed away from using a damp beauty blender to apply foundation because I'm afraid it's cleansing off the sunscreen underneath. Is this a legitimate concern?
exactly same concern here. Even without using a damp beauty blender, does the pushing and working on the sunscreen destroy its protection layer? or is it ok as long as you do apply liquid make-up/powder carefully by soft pushing motions? Thanks :)
sadly using a dry sponge soaks up a log more product, this whole makeup sunscreen sounds like a bad combo. =( like one or the other.
Honestly, I think the most important part to ensure that this doesn't happen is to make sure that your sunscreen settles in before applying anything else to your skin. Most of the time, the recommended time is 15 - 20 minutes. It takes time for the sunscreen to settle in.
EvryoneKnowsItsWindy instead of rubbing d product or being rough with a damp blender just try tapping motions AFTER a few mins of applying ur sunscreen. U will c d diff
I'm glad you did this. Most beauty videos don't show this step.
+Jessica Thompson Glad you enjoyed!
Dr, your skin glows! It's beautiful!
Sounds fake But the Primark Face SPF 30 is actually really good. its 4 star UVA protection rather than 5 star but for £3 what do you want
SimplyAWitch9 Is it suitable for oily skin?
@@lobana1108 it looks a bit greasy so id powder it but having oily skin myself it didnt break me out at all :) an plays well under any makeup
Love the topic!
What should I do throughout the day since sunscreen should be reapplied every 2 hours?
Thanks!!
You have to apply spf on top of primer and then waiting before doing foundation. After you use foundation then wait and use translucent powder that's formulated with SPF. Amazing finish and protection
It’s also very annoying to apply all those products,then have to wait for them to absorb and dry.
Sariah Lace Don’t know if this is a good idea or not but I use my hair dryer to dry my sunscreen.
Maybe I've missed something. Applying one generous layer of SPF in the morning before make up won't protect your skin all day. So if I'm going out during the day and want to wear make up, how can I be protected by SPF?
chelsea dunne They have powdered SPF that can be used for touch ups.
Hi Dr Sam, I tried many different brands of sunscreens but unfortunately they all break me out. What ingredients are prone to cause acne in the sunscreen? As soon as I stopped using it my skin gets better in a few days. I would really like to protect my skin but the breakouts are really stopping me to do so
Excuse me, did she said "5 ml spoon"?
is she rocking forward to you or am I just crazy? it is distracting me from the information. I don't have the sheer amount of time in the morning to put on a layer and go have tea, put on a layer and get dressed, put on a layer and do something else. I put on sunscreen every single day no matter what, but I think the cosmetic industry needs to meet us in the road and meet the need.
I have a small arsenal of facisl sunscreens its so hard to find one thats not shiny
Hi Dr Bunting, how about reapplying sunscreen over makeup? I understand that sunscreen must be reapplied throughout the day especially if one will be outside for long hours. I'm quite meticulous in sunscreen application and use one every single day in the quantity you have mentioned. It's the one skincare item I am always buying. As I don't rely on the spf in my makeup even when touching up my makeup, I usually just avoid going out in the sun for too long especially during the hours when the sun's rays are the strongest. But sometimes I need to be out the whole day. For such days, how can I ensure I'm getting adequate sun protection while still having my makeup on?
+Sabeena Yasmin Abdullah Try a tinted sunscreen alone on those days - then you can top every 2 hrs, as needed. And be sure to layer it over an antioxidant serum containing vitamin C at a strength of at least 10%.
+Dr Sam Bunting Thanks for the reply! Any brands that you would recommend trying? I have combination skin type that is sensitive and also acne prone if I use the wrong skin care or make up products.
+Dr Sam Bunting The recommendation of brands is in respect of antioxidant serums. It wasn't clear in my earlier comment.
+Sabeena Yasmin Abdullah Manage the acne tendency with retinoids at night. Then use Obagi or Skinceuticals vit C in the day-time.
+Dr Sam Bunting
do you have any affordable recommendations for a vitamin c serum? it's so hard to find one!
I just found out about your channel and immediately subscribed. Thankyou for making this informational videos! My mum forced me to wear sunscreen on my face all the time because I have skin type 2
+Audrey Natalia So happy you joined us! :)
+Dr Sam Bunting dr Sam, what do you think about Bareminerals Prep Step Sun shield SPF50? It's a mineral sunscreen and has 23% zinc oxide and 4% titanium dioxide. But people said it has matte finish and can work as a primer under makeup. I wanna hear about it from you first before saying goodbye to my $30.
Dr. Sam -what a wonderfully produced video. I'm an American Esthetician and I tend to gravitate towards skin care videos by TRUE experts and people with backgrounds in skin science, like yourself. (I actually lived in London for two years and had my twins there!! I love and miss Boots and Superdrug Chemists! Also the St. John's wood high street, but I digress, haha.) I've subscribed and look forward to more videos from you! Best, Jennifer xoxo
Thank you for the tutorial and reminders of using sunscreen. I had Malignant Melanoma level V. Yep Level V. Didn’t expect me to live this long. That was in 1992. So as you can imagine i have not had much sun since then, but I look better than I thought I would. I have had pretty severe heart disease and I have just st started having issues in my face. Bags, a few wrinkles, etc. so I need all the help I can get. Thank you so much.
I did half the amount and it still seemed like too much. It was a mineral based sunscreen.
Im going to try and find a sunscreen that works better if possible.
Also the sunscreen she suggest is way too expensive especially if you are supposed to a whole teaspoon I just cant spend that much. Not all of can afford high end products.
I also have I swear the OILIEST skin in the universe, Ive tried using moisturizers and primer and the makeup is so oily and separated after an hour! I used to never use any of those steps and my makeup lasted much longer. Sounds like a lot of hype to me, unless you have less oily skin.
Have you tried bareminerals prep step sun shield spf50?
If you don't need the added moisture then it's totally fine to use just the SPF, & in most cases you then won't need an additional primer; the key is that the SPF is the last step in whatever skincare you're using
My favorite SPFs - both mineral - are Paula's Choice RESIST Wrinkle Defense SPF30 ($33 for 2oz, w/ frequent promotions/ discounts available so I've never paid more than $25 & often much less) & COTZ Face Natural Tint SPF40 ($20 for 1.5oz, & regularly available @ 15-20% off @ DermStore or on buy1, get 1 half off @ ULTA).
Hope that helps!
+Sunfish OutOfWater is it weird that i use sunscreen for surfers (thick paste like balm) even if i'm just going to work? 😂
Amber F try a gel sunscreen
5 ml is one teaspoon of sunscreen. The recommended amount is actually 1/4 teaspoon for your face, and 1/4 teaspoon for your neck. But this amount was calculated for MEN in the top 4% of facial size. So you just had this woman slather on an unnecessarily thick mask of goop for no reason.
Tiffany Anne She said face neck and chest!!!
@@drina4706 As face sunscreen is much more expensive than body sunscreen, and one has to be more careful with the ingredients when it comes to the face, I use 1/4 of a teaspoon of face sunscreen on the face and apply body sunscreen on the neck and decolletage. One does not have to apply the same expensive product on face, neck and cleavage. Also my dermatologist (clinical) laughed when I said that 5ml has been recommended. One needs to reapply as well, less frequently if indoors but still reapply. So imagine using the super expensive product this doctor is using in the video above! You'll need to buy one of those tubes every week!!! There are other dermatologists on YT that are far more aware of the cost of things and their advice is far more thorough than the one offered here.
I wonder if tinted sunscreen can be used instead of base? Thanks
Hi doctor, if i Apply a primer after the sunscren and before my foundation for smooth the texture of my skin, will it stop the protetion of the sunscren ? Thank you
If sunscreen lasts for maximum for 80 minutes and then you have to reaply. What do you suggest? 😀
Over makeup you can use SPF powders (like ColoreScience) that don't mess with your look.
I've never tried this, but maybe a spray on sunscreen?
It only last 80 minutes if you are profusely sweating or getting in water. Most will last 2 hours
Bare minerals do a good powder to protect against UVA & UVB. There are a few brands out there and you can apply over make-up.
Andi Meow wow that's a whole 30 min win
This is exactly the video I needed, thank you.
Dr Sam, is it just me but it looked like there was quite a bit of product left in the spoon? I just want to make sure because I use that amount of sunscreen but I have to let the first coat dry a bit and then use up the rest.
Yeah. I thought she was going to go in with a second layer.
I really liked the look of your sunscreen but I saw it has lactic acid and I already use benzoyl peroxide cream and Differin. Would this be to much for skin?
Love the video! So informative! I always wonder if I should apply sunscreen in my eye area (lids and undereye). Consider this area is very delicate I suppose it should not be unprotected but I heard we should not apply SPF there. What you opinion on this doctor? Thanks ☺️
It's THE most important area to apply SPF!! It is common for many to have sensitivities to some chemical SPF ingredients in the eye area, in which case using a mineral based SPF would be the key, but you definitely should be applying it all over/ around the eye area (which I believe is specifically referenced/ mentioned in the video; if not its in her morning routine video, S I just watched both in succession). Hope this helps!
You're incorrect and it's more confusing because you claim to be a doctor. I'm really sorry because this seems like a well intentioned video and I'm sure you have the qualifications you say you do. But I want to say you're wrong. You don't need that much sunscreen. As you say the FDA and MHRA UK recommend ~2mg/cm^2. Assuming the density of the sunscreen is at 1 kg/L (you'll find it's slightly lower in a good quality product) I don't think most people's heads are that big (to need 5 mL as you suggest). Now I've never measured the size of my face, but I have put an A4 sheet over it (also pressing on the contours of my face) and it covers not only my face but also the front of my neck (plus I've got quite a fat face, due to my fat body). A4 paper size is 21cm x 29.7cm = 623.7 cm^2 and maybe add another half of the paper (for the back of your neck) gives you ~1000 cm^2 (basically more than enough). By my calculations that's 2 mL of sunscreen required. Which matches to the quarter to a third of a teaspoon many dermatology (medical) journals have stated! Please correct me if I'm wrong.
This wasn't written for the sake of arguing, just for the sake of those who would be put off wearing sunscreen after not only calculating costs (which varies a lot between our measurements) and effort in trying to absorb that much product into your skin.
Purie Zeondy Omg you're a math genius 😵
So glad someone is checking whatever these YTers are saying.... !
Purie Zeondy You are wrong: 2 mg/cm2 for the face only for a full protection (in vitro & in vivo test standards). If you want less protection, is your problem... Lab test (in vitro) were done with these standards and are replicated in vivo. That is how the SPF (FPS) is calculated.
Wear hats... lol. Yes, I don't like wearing sunscreens too. I buy and buy but never use... no time and no patience. :-(
Guylain Bazzo What should it be then? I didn't pull 2mg/cm^2 out of thin air, I was using information provided by her to illustrate the inaccuracies. 2:46. Either way, it is an unofficial universal standard for quantifying sunscreen. And just so you know, sunscreen in academic research (where the numbers are taken from) is calibrated for the all the skin, not specific body parts like the face.
your video are so informative!
Even on someone as pale as her, a mineral sunscreen would've left a definite white cast. Especially considering the year this video came out, cause there weren't that many good mineral options at that time. I appreciate the fact that it's trying to get people to wear sunscreen, but the application of that sunscreen wasn't necessarily honest. There's a reason why the camera stayed on the other lady instead of the model. And then there was an edit.
Sunscreen literally makes me look like I'm too oily. It doesn't take skin types into consideration. Especially in hot climates where sweating is definitely going to be a thing. That being said, a lot of primers or moisturisers have some degree of sunscreen in them. So I honestly can't see how this will work for all people. Over here sunscreen is like R80 - R120. Which is way too expensive to waste on daily makeup. Especially if you're indoors most of the day - which most people are.
Do you have any tips for reapplication of sunscreen that won't ruin the make up? Do you think the facial sprays are good?
The matte sunscreens I have tried all fall down into flakes when I apply my makeup, or even touch my skin a little while after applying. Does the one in the video flakes?
Can you tell us how to reapply sunscreen after make up without messing it up.
Just found your channel. Love this video so much it's so informative !
Thanks for joining us! x
Hi, dr. Sam, can you recommend good sunscreen for oily skin? Thanks!
Thank you Dr. Sam, such a helpful video! I'm often curious about the appropriate product amount, this was helpful, and confirms my skepticism over SPFs sprays & powders. I'm sticking to creams :-) Thank you!
Using this much sunscreen on face/neck everyday + reapplying midday, and if a decent face sunscreen costs around £30 and the bottle is (usually) 50ml…..
£30 of 50ml / 5 (2.5 x 2) = 10 days = £3 a day for 10 days = £9 a day for a month (3 x £30 per month) = £3.285 a year sunscreen protection for face and neck only. CrAzY
I was under the impression that sunscreen basically needed to sit next to skin and not be diluted with serum or moisturiser. This might be OK with a zinc oxide based screen sitting on top, but not one of the chemical screens?
Incredible videos thank you!!!!!
+Carol Pinzón Ardila Thank you so much for following!
she's right!!!!!!
So if you apply a non- spf foundation over a mineral suncreen (with 5-10min in between) you are protected? I always feel that when you apply foundation over a mineral sunscreen the effect of the sunscreen is gone because mineral sunscreens works as a sunlight reflection. I hope my question makes sense and that you can answer me. And when you're out in the sun all day, in the city for example, you have to re-apply every 2 hours right?
Did anyone get the name of the spf at the start anyone? Many thanks 😊
Ok that works but what about powder foundations like bare minerals? You can't apply it with beauty blender and you have to work it into your skin
Hi Dr Sam, could I also ask if you would recommend the Obagi vitamin C serum for Rosacea? I've read that vitamin C is a very good anti-inflammatory? Also I have purchased the Obagi sunscreen and I'm delighted with it!! So thanks for that! X
+missf79 it can sometimes be added successfully, but I tend to do this once the 'bumpy' aspect is treated with something like azalea acid. Otherwise it can be a bit too irritating.
+Dr Sam Bunting thank you so much for your reply! I am using Finacea gel at the moment to try and clear the spots and taking Erythromycin internally. I will wait till this is under control and try to add the vitamin c into my routine. Thanks again I'm really grateful for your advice!
Hi! Can you please let me know how many ml of suncreen should be used for face alone? :)
Love your videos! Can I ask would you recommend the Obagi products for Acne and Rosacea? I am really struggling with finding good products that don't irritate my skin or break it out. I would be so grateful for any advice thanks x
+missf79 I struggle with breakouts and mild rosacea & I really love Paula's Choice sunscreens (I use the Hydralight one, the Resist Super-Light Daily Defence looks really good too). In the past I would get horrible rashes from chemical sunscreens - so now I just stick to mineral based sunscreens (zinc oxide and titanium dioxide). Xx
+Gina G thank you!
Hi, I have similar skin issues. I find Ren skincare products don't irritate, love their omega serum. I also use dermalogica active moist/skin smoothing cream and gentle soothing booster. Clinique City Block oil free is a great sunscreen. Hope that helps. x
+Lady rose thanks! I have actually tried these and unfortunately they didn't work for me, my skin seems to hate any kind of oils etc such a nightmare! My dermatologist isn't much help so I'm spending too much trying to "fix" it but my skin is having none of it 😕
+missf79 Have you tried going back to basics. Gentle face wash (I use ren gentle cleansing gel) then moisturise. I use vichy normaderm on chin area. I no beauty people don't recommend but I find sudocrem is a life saver ☺. Wouldn't be without it! I apply little on my cheeks every night! Also an antihistamine is good for when things have got bad, calms inflammation. I find dairy, gluten and sugar don't help me. x
Where would I get Obagi products? Really want to try as most sunscreens tend to break me out
What do you consider a "proper" sunscreen, mineral sunscreen to be exact? What is the minimum percentage of titanium dioxide and zinc that you feel should be in a quality sunscreen or block for the face? if you have any product recommendations that would be great too especially if any of them are tinted?
Can I use any face powder after using sunscreen? Plz answer me
how would you reapply sunscreen over makeup?
+Mikeyla Nunez you can't. My advice is sun avoidance if you have make-up on over sunscreen. Wear a proper hat if outdoors. If you're going to be in and out of direct sunlight, skip make-up and wear a tinted SPF that you can top up.
+Mikeyla Nunez buy a cushion compact with SPF and reapply it every 2 hours, I read it in a Korean skin care book.
You read a lot of books that make you think you are Dr Sam! Have you actually TRIED these tips? I would bet NOT. Because if you had,...you would know they DO NOT WORK. Start trying them before spouting off your information. Applying a cushion compact every 2 hours looks horrible!!!!! That takes away your blush, cakes on your MAKEUP, etc.... Dr Sam's advice rules over yours...again!!!!
(Jen) I did try them and please don't try to accuse me of things you clearly have no proof of. The book that I read was "The little book of skincare" by Charlotte Cho. Charlotte is an esthetician and if you look at her skin you can clearly tell that she knows what she is talking about. A wide hat won't protect your skin by itself you have to reapply sunscreen every 2 hours. Maybe you didn't read Dr.Sam's response but she did say that the best is to apply makeup with spf and reapply it throughout the day, a cushion compact is a makeup with spf.
now I know...thanks for sharing...
What about re-applying?
I know its short time on videos but do we not need to wait for sunscreen to set first ?i m just worried that the ingredienst in make up dilutes the sun screen?i am very confused
What about reapplying it after make as it can’t give coverage for entire day
i just mix sun screen and day cream together and put on my face first thing in the AM after toner...then go make coffee and breakfast.....i time 20 minutes then blot away any shinny areas then add primer then time another 10 minutes and finish my breakfast....then apply my makeup
kathleen reed um no, it goes moisturizer, primer then sunscreen. sunscreen always goes last ti sort of seal everything, wait in between and do not mix anything together.
Sure....For some someone that doesn't live in the real world....I work 45 hours a week and go to school after. I don't have time to waste. What I di works for me just fine.
What if you mix mineral SPF 60 and foundation, then apply to the face and neck?
it made her face white
my skin is super oily and i use eucerin 50 oil free. problem solved!!
i'm asian and well,asian do a lot for their
"skin care routine", and me personally do "facial foam > toner >
eye cream > day cream > sunblock > makeup" for my morning
routine and "milk cleanser > facial foam > toner > eye cream
> night cream" at the night, and well, i'm using nivea product for
all of them, what i kinda confused with it, i wanna try nivea sensitive
post shave balm which is really such a bomb right now for my primer
which i never used a primer before for makeup, is it okay with all of
stuff that i put on my face? just kinda afraid that i'm gonna put too
much on my face... thankyouu,i hope you reply it..
How does this work if you are supposed to reapply sunscreen several times a day... Who has the time or money to do that, and redo your makeup, waiting between steps as you suggest.
The good news is that for days when you're mostly indoors and are exposed to only small amounts of daylight your morning application should last all day (provided you apply it liberally and evenly to begin with and aren't sweating it off). On days where you're exposed to more direct sunlight reapplication is necessary. A great way to touch up your sunscreen throughout the day is with SPF powders like those from ColoreScience. There are also SPF mists and sprays you can look into.
+Dave A exactly!!
this is a copy and paste from Dr Sam in response to a similar comment:
+Oriebir08 I'm realistic - if make-up is applied after sunscreen, I don't expect any working woman to take it off and reapply. Practice sun avoidance during the day and seek shade/cover up if outdoors. And don't forget to combine SPF with an antioxidant for extra protection against UV and infra-red.
Who's here after watching gwyneth paltrows sunscreen application 😆
ha! the model couldn't even apply the correct amount! and you cannot get 1/3 of coverturaeg, you either get it or not
hi~ What sunscreen is she using again?
A stupid expensive one. lol
Its called obagi sun shield.
How often I should reaply sunscreen during the day? If I'm wearing makeup I should take it off in order to reaply sunscreen or can I use a powder or spray for touch up?
+Oriebir08 I'm realistic - if make-up is applied after sunscreen, I don't expect any working woman to take it off and reapply. Practice sun avoidance during the day and seek shade/cover up if outdoors. And don't forget to combine SPF with an antioxidant for extra protection against UV and infra-red.
Just wanted to say that there are way easier to apply sunscreens than those like the one shown here. Ugh that white thick mess is just awful ! EltaMD spf 44 is a great tinted sunscreen and I also really like a couple of the light mineral Korean ones like Etude House SUNPRISE airy finish and Misha all around safe block Soft Finish. Both are easy to apply with no white cast and they leave a lightweight matte finish.
Why the model is starring at u like that 😳😳😳
What about moisturizer?
also primer is use before sunscreem
Spf first or last step in skin Care routine?
Hi Sam, I have recently purchased the neostrata sheer physical spf 50 sunscreen. The smell is not great. Smells like a mix between a granny perfume and alchohol/vinegar (even though it contains no alchohol). Is this normal or do you think the one I ordered has gone off? I wanted to try the obagi one you use in the video but it costs £55. Please can you recommend another really good facial suncream that is not tested on animals and a reasonable price? (and doesn't smell fowl) Many thanks, Sarah
Should have clearly shown how the sunscreen melts in when she's blending it instead of cropping her out and her reappearing and sunscreen has magically fully blended in
My (facehtheory) moisturiser has SPF in it, then i apply the purito cantella sunscreen and then a foundation and powder with SPF too. That way i apply the products i normally would but have the correct amount of SPF by the end
I have a question about zinc percentages. I have a Coola brand sunscreen that is SPF 30 with 1.8% zinc oxide and a Juice Beauty SPF 30 with 20% zinc oxide. What does the stark difference mean? Can I use less of the Juice brand since the zinc is so high?
I have always heard 5 ml or 1 tsp is just for the face and that you need additional ss for the neck and chest.
no. half a teaspoon for the face
hi can I still used my face cream together with sun cream protection on daily basis
+blessing omokaro absolutely. Find a sophisticated sunscreen that layers well over moisturiser and underneath make-up. Such a worthwhile step.
OMG I use that same Obagi sunscreen but I only use a quarter of that amount!
+Inas Hamam sunscreen application is a standardised thing - most people apply 1/4 or less and as a result the average SPF50 product in reality delivers around SPF2.5.
Hello, I have a question (or several questions, sorry). If i'm out for work at 9am and then go out again to eat at 2 or 3pm (being in the sun), should I wash my face again and apply sunscreen all over again? Because where I live, the sun is very very harsh and damaging, temperature rise up to 50ºC degrees (120ºF ) in summer. I wear 50SPF daily and I have combo skin (I use an avene sunscreen). I only apply it in the morning. Should I buy a light spray one(like an anthelios 50) so I can spray it on top in the middle of the day? What about my arms? does it work if I only apply sunscreen once? I hug a lot of dogs through the day, and i feel weird about re-applying cream over dirty arms. I should wash and apply, right? Also, i sweat a lot in summer. Help.
Both faces look so oily and shinny
Can u plz tell me what u have applied on ur face fr shine?
if i use that much sunscreem my foundation would look too ashy
thanks doc. 😘
