Drunk Elephant Umbra Sheer SPF30 - Review

[@projectjessica2495]

I love the red head band n earrings! So cute. In the morning, I always wash my face etc, then put my eyes in (contacts). Then put on my sunscreen. 😁 Cos I always end up getting product in my eyes otherwise, cos I must accidentally touch my face. Thank uuuuuuuuu as always

I am on the mission to find an affordable sunscreen for my face but I feel so many break me out or that when I apply them my eyes water so much. I've watched your previous video on sunscreens and it's interesting to know the different between chemical and phsycial too. There's so much on the market its so overwhelming. Thank you for helpful videos and reviews that make things easier for us as an audience. X

I had mentioned on a previous video a sunscreen I think you would love- Biossance. It has all the ingredients we like, no whitecast, feels great, and cruelty free. I absolutely love it- I live in the southwest part of the states, in the desert; and sunscreen is vital to my survival! Biossance is my new favorite.

It sounds amazing but we can't get it here in UK! x

Thats so interesting - Ive read lots of reviews saying it was too greasy and didnt sink in! Ive been thinking about getting the tinted version for ages and now I think i will wait till winter. Thanks for the great review! x

Hi Karen, you look so beautiful I like your earings. Thank you so much for the review I tried other spf but they burn my skin and make my eyes cry. Stay safe please 😘😘😘

An interesting review Karen. Price wise it's not as bad as you would think for Drunk Elephant as you said. I'm really enjoying the Purito comfy water mineral sunscreen at the moment and it's an spf 50 pa ++++. To be labelled as an spf of 30 or 50 or whatever they do have to pass strict testing all over the world. I'm confident it will give me protection when I apply liberally, but like you I'n not a sunworshipper - nor have I ever been. I get headaches, prickly heat, burn very quickly as I'm ghostly pale naturally. Despite sunscreen use I always get a few freckles in the Summer. No sunscreen gives 100% protection I'm afraid - we would need a lead sheet lol. On a very sunny day I seek the shade, wear a hat, dark glasses etc or hopefully soon go out on the motorbike with my helmet on. I too live in Scotland so am condemned to stay in quarantine for however long yet. I want to go for coffee, meet up with friends and give my mum a hug. I think I'm going to need a new sofa as I'm wearing a bum shaped dent in the current one. Be well and best wishes.

On my daily 90 minute walk in a sunny climate, I wear Paula's Choice Non Greasy spf 50 and top it strategically with a spf 50 mineral stick. I wear the recommended amount.I also wear a hat and a long sleeved shirt. My face and hands still get darker every year because of the reflection off the concrete sidewalks, I believe. I look forward to trying the Drunk Elephant product.

Can't beat sun rays. You can be sitting in the shade of all shades yet those rays are reflecting off any and everything and hitting you somehow without you even realizing it.

I use aldis baby one when I remember to use it! I only ever go out into Kilmarnock, the only time that I get what you'd call sun exposure, is when I'm waiting for the bus and I'm using taxis just now into town. So sunscreen isn't a priority for me, I'm 46 and I've never really used it on my face. I try to get twenty minutes of sun a day so I get my daily dose of vit D, then I put on sunscreen on my arms and chest etc if I'm going out and wearing a vest top, in the five days we get sun up here! 😂 😂 😂 xxx

I live near Newcastle so our weather not great! we get cold north wind from sea and when hot we get fret from the sea coming in. I seem allergic to suncreams make my skin red tight and sore.

[@kirstymacfarlane1620]

@@pam164 I honestly rarely wear sunscreen on my face because it doesn't get a lot of exposure, I'm a bit like Karen and don't go abroad or sit in the sun. If there's an aldi near you give their baby one a go, I've got sensitive skin and find ones specifically for your face tend to irritate my skin. It's really cheap as well x

[@pam164]

I been using Aldi kids 50 lotion on my face its good but i find all sun creams make my skin red and sore. Its relaxed a bit in England but not that much want shops and pubs open lol By way love your red earrings pretty.

I have tried this one and I had a totally different experience. It didn’t seem to sink in at all and left a cast-y greasy film over my skin. I keep it for when I work so I can apply it before I leave to commute home. Initially I thought it was me as the instructions say each tube has 80 applications so I thought it was me being too liberal but having seen the reviews I think it’s just a decisive formula. Have you tried the new-ish Ultrasun Mineral formula? It’s beautiful. I was shocked by the finish as it’s so soft and matte that it looks almost like a blurring powder.

[@TheBeautyMaverick]

I've just started using the Ultra sun fluid if that's the one you mean? I love it! x

[@clairetaylor4195]

What do you think of the body shop defence 50spf x
