I live in Sydney, Australia and use this product along with their other SPF products! They are SUCH good SPFs (and expensive 🤣)! The "serum" SPF is more so just a marketing/gimmick thing but the one you have just reviewed as well their mineral SPF options are too good! I just found out about your channel and absolutely LOVE IT! Will recommend to my friends. ✅
When you said Michelle was your favourite source for sunscreen knowledge the to most thing come into my mind is Dr Dray is my favourite source of learning how to apply sunscreen and you are the best source of learning and understanding skincare.
That depends on your eyes - there is nothing inside that makes it not suitable, but some people react with irritation to certain sunscreen filters. I had no issue with this one though.
Thank you for this. I am always tempted by new moisturising sunscreens but as I am now retired I have to consider the price so will stick with AS and look out for special offers to try it.
I really like this sunscreen for my oily and dehydrated skin, but I use it in the same way as you - more as a moisturiser on days when I won’t be outside lots. Heard about it from Michelle at LabMuffin too!
Hello doctor! This question might be a bit out of context from the video bit is cetaphil gentle skin cleanser a good choice to use on dry , combination skin?
@@DoctorAnne yeah I did people say it's quite a good cleanser however the ingredients which I looked up can cause endocrine disruption and breast cancer so I am really scared..
@@x-cdebaratidutta2522 You fell for classic fearmongering there. No ingredients officially used in skincare is toxic or in any way harmful to you. I suspect you are referring to parabens, who are, I assure you, completely fine and not dangerous to you at all.
@@DoctorAnne ohh thank you so much 🥰 I got really scared !! I just bought a new one bottle yesterday you see ... Again thank you so much for correcting me 😃
i had tried this Ultra Violette Supreme Screen Hydrating Facial Skinscreen, and i get irritation, red, itchy, bumps skin on the next day, i have no idea why it could not suit my skin.....
Well, I grew up that way and still prefer my face if I have a “healthy tan” (putting this in quotation marks as it is of course never healthy). I rely on sunless tanner and bronzer now, but still find others more attractive when they are tanned - I guess it is ingrained so deeply, it is hard to let go of. We also grew up (and I hear it very often still) that it is first red, then tanned - the way to go for European skin. Things are changing very slowly, even for people like my mother that have me constantly telling her to put on some SPF. I hope my childrens generation will be wiser.
@@DoctorAnne that’s really weird for me because since my childhood even tho i didnt wear spf 365 days, i was always careful about not getting tanned/burned because i am a bit allergic to sun 😅 but thanks for your point of view 🙏🏻
@@eafafeayd Even though I am allergic to the sun too I would sit outside the first time the sun was warm enough, all bundled up, holding my face to the sun for as long as possible. It would turn red, I would get itchy hives on my neck, but a slight tan - for me that was worth it. I wish I had known then what I know now, my skin would have way less hyperpigmentation.
@@DoctorAnne thank you What about vitamin c? Can I apply vitamin c in the morning and tretinoin in the evening? I've started tretinoin for anti aging at 21 and super scared to use anything else
@@shreyaroka1551 Again I would recommend my playlist, especially the video on how to introduce Tretinoin with minimal irritation. In short: First build up your tolerance to Tret and then try other actives.
Yikes, sold out already on Cult. But ya, the cost, ouch!! 1/3 cup is $49 on their site. You get free shipping if you spend $50 though, which is just rude 🙄🙄 imo !! Tho many vendors do the same thing. The formulation & not needing to reapply is a huge selling point. I end up using 3 different sunscreens at the moment! Thanks!!! Love your sunscreen videos!!
The word "hydrating" in sunscreen descriptions worries me because I expect it to be an excuse for an awful, greasy finish. I have a serum with 10% kakadu-plum extract and it smells terrible The worst heat I have experienced is Brussels during a heat wave. I think the top temperature was 43 or 46°C. It was absolutely horrible since it is an inland city with no coastal breeze. Fortunately, the hotel had air conditioning
Northern European houses are not designed to withstand the heat, most of them are build to keep the warmth in - I bet that will change over the coming years…
@@DoctorAnne Brussels also had a major lack of vegan/vegetarian restaurants and seemingly a really bad homelessness crisis. It was pretty surprising to me. Definitely not a similar experience in Paris, Berlin, or Amsterdam. My favourite european (continent) city is probably Edinburgh. I love Berlin but the food isn't great and despite studying german for 7 years I know hardly any. That is on the school system for being terrible and me for taking too many modules in college
@@moose8762 I have never been to Brussels, but I do love Berlin food options. Last time I visited (which admittedly was five years ago) there were many vegan options so many that even I ate vegan quite often.
@@DoctorAnne Berlin had the highest amount of vegan restaurants in Europe last I checked. This is referring to fully vegan restaurants - if you include vegetarian and veg-options the number is 689. I was there about two weeks before they started taking the pandemic seriously
@@DoctorAnne I found a sunscreen that I recommend more than the Eucerin one. It is Nivea's shine control mattifying effect SPF 50. It is the same parent company and the formula looks almost exactly the same besides extra european filters in the Nivea. I would say it is slightly less drying than the Eucerin. The negative would be fragrance. It has like linalool, geraniol, and parfum. My worry with fragrance is just that some of them make breathing hurt for me but products with fragrance will never get the same traction online. I think if you want a sunscreen finish like the Korean ones that failed the consumer tests, this is the way to go - almost half the price of eucerin too
Have you ever faced the Australian sun?

@@bakica_vangica Thank you, that is very kind of you.

I watch Dr Dray regularly too, she really has a wealth of knowledge. Thank you for your kind words, I am honoured.
I am Australian and yes we do have some of the best sunscreens in the world! I love the ultra Violette serum one!
I need to visit Australia again to take advantage of that.
Hallo Dr. Ann love your video. Is this product suitable for the eye area? If not can you recommend an option? Thanks
That depends on your eyes - there is nothing inside that makes it not suitable, but some people react with irritation to certain sunscreen filters. I had no issue with this one though.
Thank you for this. I am always tempted by new moisturising sunscreens but as I am now retired I have to consider the price so will stick with AS and look out for special offers to try it.
Price is really an important factor when you consider how much sunscreen you are supposed to use.
@@DoctorAnne and the point you made that you may economise on a more expensive sunscreen really hit home for me as I know that is what I would do!
@@janeelliott6772 I am guilty of that as well.
I really like this sunscreen for my oily and dehydrated skin, but I use it in the same way as you - more as a moisturiser on days when I won’t be outside lots. Heard about it from Michelle at LabMuffin too!
She is a great source for any sunscreen questions.
Hello doctor!

I have never tried the cleanser, so I can’t say. But there are many reviews on it here on UA-cam, have you considered asking there?

I am sorry to hear that. Which other SPFs do you like?
since summer is here, i wonder about your opinion on germans getting "tanned" -mostly getting burned and red- i still can't believe it

Hello doctor, can I use tretinoin in the evening and arbutin in the morning?
Yes. I do have a whole playlist on Tretinoin and some tips and tricks that you might find interesting.
@@DoctorAnne thank you our sweetest derm
@@shreyaroka1551 Thank you, but I am not a dermatologist. I am a anaesthesiologist working in Public Health/ Infectious Diseases.
@@DoctorAnne thank you
