I’m about to finish a bottle of ISDIN’s Eryfotona Actinica untinted and have enjoyed it, but I’m curious to hear your thoughts and how it compares to others! ISDIN is more affordable than some others I like. I also love EltaMD UV Clear but it’s not purely mineral. I’m always scared to buy tinted versions because they’re usually noticeably orange or too dark on my skin. I love your reviews!
My dermatologist and I absolutely LOVE Isdin! Their eryfotona actinica specifically for melasma has amazing clinical data on why it helps sunspots / melasma - my derm and I did some videso on this! Elta MD I love as well but the tinted is WAY too dark for my skintone!
@@cristinitaandco I buy ISDIN straight from their website. I subscribe to their emails so I know when to grab it on sale. It’s not inexpensive tbh, but when comparing price per ounce it’s less expensive than some other brands I like, especially on sale!
I really want to try the tatcha. One thing I do notice with people is that they don’t put enough for fluid like sunscreens as in comparison to sunscreen creams. I think the tatcha goes by too fast
The reason why mineral sunscreens tend to leave a white cast is due to either the Zinc Oxide or Titanium Dioxide which is a earth mineral compound that is ultra white in their natural form. Why the Tatcha sunscreen doesnt leave a white cast is becoz the Zinc Oxide content is only 10%. Industry practice is at least 15% Zinc Oxide for sun protection of SPF30. Thats why the earlier 2 brands with more than 15% Zinc Oxide do leave a white cast, which can be addressed by tinted versions if they have them.
i just prefer it on my skin with my melasma - just a personal preference but one is not better than the other! chemical and mineral spf's are both great

Yes and non nano form does leave more white cast …. but 10 % zinc oxyde can protect as well ? Is it really spf 50?
The Paula’s choice peels as well
I seriously wear sunscreen so religiously because of you. 🙏
i'm so happy to hear this!
