Everything you NEED to know about SUNSCREENS | Dr Gaile Robredo-Vitas

Here's is all the IMPORTANT things to know about SUN PROTECTION!
There's so many things to talk about when it comes to SUNSCREENS and SUN PROTECTION that I decided to make a 2-part series all about them!
In this video I will discuss the WHYs and the WHATs...
Why is sun protection is important?
What is UVA/UVB?
What is SPF?
What are physical and chemical sunscreens?
What do we look for when buying sunscreens?
Watch out for Part 2, where in I will talk about how to properly apply sunscreens and how to pick the right product/s for your skin type. -

Hi i just found your spf series and i love it. When would you recommend to use sunscreen on your body? Is it also recommended to use it daily? And when should i apply spf in the day, as soon as i wake up or example after morning exercise when i ususally wash my face?

[@irenegaile]

I always recommend sunscreen use on all exposed parts of the body when outdoors :)

[@IyaLovesLife]

I found out through experience that my skin responds to physical UV filters than chemical UV filters. Although I did enjoy the cosmetically elegant texture of chemical UV filters, I found that the my skin stings less whenever I use physical UV filters. 💚🙏

[@irenegaile]

Yes, most of the time finding the perfect skin care product is hard and you really do trial and error. Thanks for sharing, Iya! :)

[@user-oj3eu8cg9y]

What if i use uva and uv protection together in one product from Japan kagayaku sunscreen

[@jayveejhonchun]

Yehe when people ask me, I always say go super high on SPF because it is more likely people will grossly under-apply. So theres a buffer of protection. I assume they miss the “peaks” of their skin and more product collect in the “valleys”

[@irenegaile]

Yes! I agree! And also I remind them to reapply as needed 👍🏻 thank you for sharing! :)

[@aisacaigoy269]

Thanks doc...hindi po talaga ako nag sunscreen kc ang feeling ko nakakapanget xa tingnan sa mukha kc parang oily..pero NgayoN gagamit na ako ng sunscreen..

Yay! You just have to find one na ok sayo. Sunscreen use is a must!

[@rosalindacampos1432]

Rosalinda Campos yes! Ako I love tinted sunscreens kc may added coverage cya so para narin cyang foundation :)

It will depend on the vehicle - if water-based, gel-based or cream. Mineral sunscreens naman can be formulated in many ways :)

[@maryannerese142]

Hi po doc! Question po, minsan may mga products po na sinasabi need muna mag wait ng 15 to 30 before sun exposure. ung waiting time po ba na yun kasama sa 2 hrs ng effectivity ng sunscreen bago mag reapply ulit? Tia :)

[@irenegaile]

Yes kasama na cya :) but actually that waiting time is controversial, merong mga nag sasabi na hindi na kailangan mag antay, especially if you are applying or using physical sunscreens. But the 2-3 hrs starts the moment you apply the sunscreen on your skin.

[@marygracecomahig1508]

Hi doc pwede pa request po ng skincare na pwede po sa breastfeeding mom like me at tanong lang po doc pwede po ba ako gumamit ng retinol or vit c serum. Thank you so much doc!

[@irenegaile]

Mary grace Comahig hello! Breastfeeding moms can use almost everything na topical because most skin care ingredients have minimal systemic absorption. Just be careful not to “accidentally” transfer your skin care product ingredients to your baby. Especially ung mga irritating. My advice is for the first few months (maybe up to 6 months) stick to basic skin care products - mild cleansers, simple moisturizers and sunscreen. After that ok na gaya ng Retinol and vitamin c serum. And lastly, your choice of products will also depend on your skin concern (eg. Pigmentation, dry skin, large pores etc)

[@marygracecomahig1508]

Thank you so much doc, subrang malaking tulong po ito sa akin at hinihintay ko po ito matagal na po❤️❤️❤️.

[@irenegaile]

Mary grace Comahig you’re welcome! :)

[@archievillaflores3635]

Ok lang po ba doc yung Belo Suncreen na gamitin as a moisturizer also or need pa po ng seperate moisturizer for oily/normal skin?

[@irenegaile]

Most skin products have moisturizers in them and for me personally if you're skin is ok naman there might not be any need to add an additional product.

[@shypolthetravelers]

Doc question po, pwde po ba pagsabayin ang uvb at uva sunscreen?

[@irenegaile]

Dapat may uva/uvb protection and sunscreen mo :)

[@katherinesacayanan918]

Hello po doc! I have a question po regarding sa reapplication po ng sunscreen. Should I wash my face before reapplying sunscreen o okay lang po kung hindi? I hope you'll answer it po hehe. Thanks po! ❤️

[@irenegaile]

Depends, i usually just reapply using a compact with SPF on a daily basis. but for example nasa beach i just reapply Pero if halimbawa pinagpawisan ka or nadumihan ka, best to wash face before reapplication

[@mdnaimsheikh756]

Do i need to wear sunscreen if I'm indoors all day long and my windows are closed?

[@irenegaile]

I have a video that answers this question :)

[@irenegaile]

To answer your question, no you dont need to

[@valiantstatechny307]

Dr. Gaile! Can a teenager use older sunscreen?

[@irenegaile]

Sure, why not? :)

[@valiantstatechny307]

Thanks doc!

[@jayannematalog3702]

Hi po doc.😊 ask ko lang po kung safe po ba gumamit ng any sunscreen while I'm 1month pregnant? (Brilliant rejuvanating po gamit ko before) SANA PO MASAGOT😊

[@irenegaile]

Jayann Matalog hello! I would avoid products na nakalagay “rejuvenating” and “whitening” while pregnant especially during the first trimester. Advisable to wear sunscreens especially when pregnant but since sensitive skin ang pregnant i would recommend that you use physical sunscreens - ung may zinc oxide or titanium dioxide :)

[@jayannematalog3702]

@@irenegaile thankyou so much po😊, doc. give me example ng brand ng sunscreen na pwede saken, wala po kase ako idea. sana po masagot ulit😚

Melasma is a complex skin condition. please consult to get the right recommendations :)

HI DR. GAILE PAANO PO PWEDE TANGGALIN ANG SUNSCREEN? OKAY LANG PO BA MICELLAR WATER? :) MINERAL SUNSCREEN PO ANG GINAGAMIT KO

[@irenegaile]

Double cleansing should work :) micellar followed by a gentle cleanser is ok.

[@anaclarissebejer7854]

@@irenegaile thank you po doc 😊

[@parkrose3015]

Doc, are butyl methoxydibenzoylmethane and Avobenzone are the same? Because my sunscreen has SPF 30 only pero sabi po it can protect you from UVA and UVB rays but there is no "Broad spectrum" or "PA++++" na nakalagay.

[@irenegaile]

avobenzone protects against UVA :) also dont expect to see PA in all susncreens, so far only japanese and korean made sunscreens use PA rating

[@ginaconstantino6532]

Doc pued po magtanong okay Lang po ba gumamit sunscreen sa loob ng bahay.?

Yes, of course :) It is recommended lalo na kung marami kayong bintana :)

Adapalene po kasi but everytime na nag sasunscreen ako naiirritate skin ko and nakailang palit napo ako sa sunscreen but nakakaramdam po talaga ako ng slight itch. Gusto ko po talaga mag sunscreen para maheal yung PIE ko and PIH but pano ko po sila iheheal kung dipo sanay yung skin ko sa sunscreen :((

[@irenegaile]

yes, i really suggest that you use sunscreen. CGuro if super sensitive ka stick to those made for children or those that dont contain too many ingredients :)
