Hi, Cassandra, thank you so much for your always considerate videos. Can you please keep Darker skinned people in mind when recommending sunscreen, tinted is only made for curtain skin tones, it is rarely made with darker skinned tones in mind, I really appreciate all the hard work you do

[@taliaalexander7892]

For the Australian Gold tinted sunscreen, it looks like Cassandra was using the fair to light shade, but they also have a medium to tan shade and a rich to deep shade 😊

[@db-gb5xi]

I'd check out channels that specialize in skins of color: Dr Alexis Stephens has some videos on sunscreen. But your best bet would be The Style and Beauty Doctor. She tests a lot of sunscreens. I might also check out Glow by Ramon (he's Puerto Rican) and he tests a lot of sunscreens as well.

[@fjp9]

that’s a good thought, but even if she tried those types of products they might work differently on her skin.

[@mariaecharri1375]

The Australian Gold has different shades and it’s like a BB cream (it doesn’t have too much coverage and blends easily). I hope the darker shades work for you!

[@ladytruth6185]

Oil of Olay Regeneriat MINERAL sunscreen SPF 30 is not talked about much and it melts into the skin and no white residue! You will like it alot. My mom is darker tanned skin and she loves it.

[@sarahrushton8154]

I am on my 4th tube of Australian Gold tinted after watching your previous video in it. Thank you for recommending it. The texture is amazing, it gives a little coverage, and it doesn’t give me breakouts 💜

[@kerriewatson8914]

Personally, Australian Gold is a little too drying for the colder months but is PERFECT for the summer. It literally blurs my pores and I love the way it looks on my skin better than actual makeup. No one else on KZbin seems to be talking about it, so THANK you for being the one 💞🙌🏻

[@Acidfunkish]

I tried the tinted one, and it only comes in 3 colours. It feels really satiny and nice, in summer... But I need more moisture, during the winter, and it does NOT layer well. 😣 Plus, the Fair - Light is way, way too dark. It should be named "Light to Light-Medium," or something, because it is DEFINITELY not okay on fair skin. It makes me look like just my face is tanned. Can't use it on my arms and everything, because even though it's water-resistant, it still will transfer pigment, a bit. 😕 It's not orange, at least... But it darkens my complexion a lot. I really wanted to like it! A one-and-done complexion product sounds friggin' amazing. If you're light to light-medium, it would probably look lovely on you. 👍🏻

[@Iquey]

It's a very generous tube. Has also lasted me almost a year and finally is almost gone. I wasn't using sunscreen regularly enough before but now that I am I'd say it lasts about 6-9 months if you just use a facial/neck portion and then use a clear or white sunscreen on your body.

[@makenamei3632]

First off, I’m addicted to your videos! I have learned so much and am so grateful for all the time and research you put into all your videos! I was wondering: On videos like this, could you maybe make a chart of the steps of skincare routine and when you speak of a certain product, maybe you could put the list/chart up and highlight the what proper step the product should be applied on the face? Or even just explain like- (example) This serum would go on before/after your moisturizer. This sunscreen goes on before/after your moisturizer. I think it would help us get the most bang for your buck! Love you and look forward to more knowledge in the future!! 🦋

I used to get Epiduo from my doctor and it worked SO WELL for me but then a nurse said I should stop using it because it was burning off my skin (I have now learned this isn't true) and isn't suitable for long term use (also not true). So now I'm on Lymecycline and waiting to see if it works... So sad I had access to adapalene and didn't know how good I had it - I would have fought harder to keep it!

[@ana-mariaalrasul9231]

I have Australian Gold and it's amazing sunscreen, the best I've ever had. However it was expensive, it was around 30$. I had to order it online. Still, no regrets. 🙂

[@kevinjanghj]

Sulwhasoo, a Korean luxury brand, has a Time Renovature Emulsion which claims to have Korean red pine extract which is highly moisturizing and contains antioxidants. I was not sure why, despite the light watery texture, it felt more effective as an alleged 'anti-aging' product compared to the other lines like the basic balancing line till I realized that red pine also contains pycnogenol. Add to that the star ingredients of red ginseng extract and other Korean medicinal herbs for skin, and that might be why the product is rich.

[@traceyleclair]

[@rocketmansdaughter5613]

Oh yeah, and the AF adapalene sent me 2 free small tubes when I purchased 2 of the larger ones. I think it might have been because the small ones expire in November 2021.

I looooove B oil! I was hoping it was just oil + algae extract, but for a blend with a triglyceride base, it's top notch! And, tbh, some of the oils in it can be hard to work into skin, this definitely smooths out viscosity. I always mix a few drops of squalene with my 1st moisturizer, then some drops of B with my 2nd one, and if I need a third layer (they are good lotions, btw, but my skin & climate are both super dry), I can add some PGA to it. So far, my moisture barrier is getting stronger, I've even had a couple 1 lotion days when the temps were over 30F, thanks to the improvements in my barrier

I considered the Pacifica Ceramide moisturizer. But when you consider the fact that it's only 50mL, it's really not that cheap at all.

[@scarcat2469]

You’re right that’s like, standard moisturizer price. I kinda want to try it but my skin is really sensitive to different moisturizers and it’s hard spend $16 on a moisturizer that might not work, so I stick to my Acure Radically Rejuvenating Night Cream that I know my skin loves.

50mls is pretty standard for a moisturizer

[@alliecinder]

@@brookeelle6879 Maybe a Sephora moisturizer. But she was speaking of it in the same breath as CeraVe, which sells their ceramide moisturizer at the same price but for 500ml of product -- quite literally 10 times the amount. This is a pretty similar case for other accessible drugstore ceramide moisturizers. So I would say no, when it comes to those who cannot afford to buy a 16 dollar 50mL moisturizer every month, it is not inexpensive.

[@brookeelle6879]

@@alliecinder $16 is not expensive and 500mls of a moisturizer for just your face is a ridiculous amount to compare to and it’s not even specifically formulated for the face, Cerave does have one specifically for the face and it’s $10 for 60mls. She didn’t say “the cheapest possible products on the market” she said inexpensive products that deliver results.

@@brookeelle6879 I am really glad to hear that $16 for a month supply of moisturizer is not expensive for you. That is really awesome! But it also demonstrates my point. ​ Some people cannot afford to buy two different moisturizers for the face and body, and many more cannot afford to buy a moisturizer at all. This is why comparisons of considerably more expensive brands like Pacifica with bigger drugstore brands like CeraVe can sometimes be frustrating to some viewers. Because it's rarely acknowledged that these products are considerably less economically accessible than the drugstore products they are being compared to. A brand like, say, Pacifica, just isn't a viable alternative to the majority of, say, CeraVe users, who simply cannot afford products that are 10 times as expensive as the ones they're currently using. I'm not saying that it isn't a viable alternative for some, but for many it isn't. And since it is rarely mentioned, I guess I feel the need just to mention it as a matter of perspective. 'Inexpensive' is highly relative to a person's economic position. And although we are all guilty of it, describing something as 'inexpensive' is pretty problematic. The term takes a position on what the 'norm' is in terms of what's economically viable. And it's especially problematic when KZbinrs call products inexpensive, or inexpensive alternatives, because the economic norm for KZbinrs is not at all representative of the economic norm for the average viewer.

Dear Cassandra, Someday please do a video about products that are also available outside of the USA. I watch your videos, and like 85% of the products are unavailable in the EU (maybe except The Ordinary, which at least can be ordered)...

Try iherb, see if they ship where you are
