MY SKINCARE FAVORITES OF 2019 | BIOLOGIQUE RECHERCHE | DR. BARBARA STURM | OSMOSIS

[@annabiciocchi2399]

I spent the weekend binge watching your skincare videos and just ordered about 10 products from Biologique R., Osmosis, Sisley, Emma Hardie, and Dr. Sturm based on your reviews. I’m turning 51 next month and really wanted to step up my skincare game. I love how you show and explain everything about the smell, consistency, and feel...not just what it has in it or claims to do. The sensory experience can be so important too! You’re very relatable and I have really enjoyed learning about new products from you! 😊

[@BrownEyedMs9]

Hi Abby! You have been a favorite for me during 2019! I’m so glad that I discovered your channel and got to know you this year. I appreciate your knowledge, love your sense of humor and your sincerity towards your viewers. Thanks for a wonderful 2019 and looking forward to being here with you in 2020!! Xoxo🌴

[@AbbyBlissWhite]

I feel the EXACT the same way Robin! THANK YOU so, so, much for all your support and fun this year. I am so excited for 2020!!! xoxo

[@theginger8855]

👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 so I thought I had learned all your secrets with skincare but I’m going to try your makeup remover balm and the essence! You’re my guru for skincare and I thought I knew all the secrets! Thanks Abby for being so lovely. You don’t know how much you’ve brightened up some of my days. Happy New Years to you! As an aesthetic RN I do love the V-beam and/or an IPL for tightening and lightening. The science behind those are real.

[@AbbyBlissWhite]

Janni- I am so glad that we have become friends! And thank you for all your support. AND yep- the IPL will blast away that pigmentation and I need to try the V-Beam in 2020!!! THANK YOU. Cheers to a great 2020. xoxo

[@swynn3716]

Thanks for your year end makeup and skincare videos. I have enjoyed this last year with you and am looking forward to 2020. The blouse you have on in these videos is great. Looks wonderful on you. Happy new year

[@AbbyBlissWhite]

Thank you so much S Wynn!!! I have enjoyed having you here and I am excited for 2020! xoxo

[@tanyawood275]

I am definitely on board with the less is more! I do wonder sometimes if layering all of the serums and creams is really what I need to do! I also use several of the Biologiquere Recherche products and so far my skin has tolerated it all very well and I do enjoy the smell. I didn't know if I could take it at first and then I thought if it helps my skin, I'll throw almost anything on it!! I love the input you have gone over with us and if you are good with it so am I!!! I am so thankful I found you and it was through Penny's Skin Care channel and even though I am a bit older than you, you enjoy all of the makeup and skin care I do!!! You are one of my best finds in 2019!! Love you and Hugs my friend!!

[@AbbyBlissWhite]

I feel the EXACT same way Tanya!!! I am so THRILLED to have gotten to know you better in 2019 and to call you my friend. YOU are the BEST!!! I will take a day each week where I just cleanse, use serum, moisturize and find that my skin responds well to LESS is MORE. I love all my serums but have been just rotating them in - not slapping several on at once - and my skin responds positively to that. SO cheers to LESS is MORE!!! AND I am learning to stick with the products I know work for me- instead of getting swayed by the next best thing!!! That is so hard. LOL! Cheers to a great 2020!!! xoxo

Hi Abby! Happy New Year! I just recently discovered your videos. Love them so much! Learned so much and ordering some products you recommended.. Love the Barbara Sturm rich cream, anti aging serum, toner, and mask. I also have slight rosacea and they work great for me. Want to try the Biologique Recherche. Where is the best place to order this brand? Loving your makeup recommendations also. We have close to the same skin and hair color so it makes it easier form me. I seen you are from Des Moines originally. Im formally from the Quad Cities in Iowa. I will be continuing to watch all of your videos. Thank you so much!

[@AbbyBlissWhite]

Hello Bonnie! WOW! It sounds like we have the same loves in skincare! The RIch Cream is becoming my HG cream and I just ordered another one during the Bluemercury 20% off sale. I order my BR products from www.aidabicaj.com/ or www.rescuespa.com/ Both are very responsive and help with recommendations. And yay! Another Iowan! I am so glad we are connected and now I feel the need to get the MASK!! I have yet to try the toner because I use Lotion P50 but would love to try that in 2020 too! xoxo

[@nevertooold6498]

Happy new year Abby!! 🎆🎉🥂 I don't know if I told you about the Retrouve, but I LOVE it. It is for night only, and more like an ointment. I use a very small amount and I noticed a difference within about a week (true story). I don't see lines around your eyes, but for 59 my lines are not too bad (they are there though), and I also have been using eye cream since I was 18. I highly recommend you try the retrouve at night, maybe you can get a sample? It is expensive, but it lasts a very, very long time (it comes in two sizes and I got it when Blue Mercury was having a sale - 250.00 & 415.00). I feel like it truly softened the lines that were starting to get a little deep under my eyes. I also like the Paula's Choice for the daytime - it's the ceramide-Enriched Firming Eye Cream $48.00 (it also has Vit C & retinol) I love this one too. I have tried many, many eye products and these are the two I've liked the best. Thanks for this video! I am looking for a new vitamin C (although the Peter Thomas Roth one worked on me, to a degree) I just think Vit C can only do so much and I will need IPL for dark spots - but I'm chicken, that's how I know I will never have work done! Anyway, I' wondering what you mean when you say the Skinceutical's C works for you, did it help with dark spots? Or did you mean something else? Thanks for these great videos!! (sorry for the long comment!) Take care my friend, Ginny 😘😘😘

[@AbbyBlissWhite]

Hello Ginny!! Yes! You have told me about it before and I have samples being sent to me now- so I can't wait to try it! Although it is expensive -everyone says you use such a little amount that it is worth every PENNY! And I did not know Bluemercury sold this. THANK YOU! As far as the Vitamin C- I started using it to combat hyperpigmentation in my 20's. I 'tried' to be a sun baby when I was younger ( and even used TANNING BEDS -LOL ) I was living in LA and had noticed all the hyperpigmentation coming out. I went to a dermatologist in LA and she told me the two most important things to do to combat sun damage were Vitamin C and SPF. She recommended the CE Ferulic and their 50 SPF. I noticed a brightness in my skin right away and have pretty must stuck to that credo ever since. There are lots of dupes out there for Skinceuticals but I always notice a brightness when I use my CE Ferulic and am just sort of loyal to the brand since that is what I started out with. AND yes- I totally was scared to get my first IPL and they had acted like there was NO DOWNTIME- but that was a lie. My face blew up and was completely swollen- all the brown spots come to the surface and then in about a week they fall off. IT Totally works but I have to plan it out appropriately with my work and such. I hope this helps! xoxo

[@nevertooold6498]

@@AbbyBlissWhite Thanks so much Abby! Yes, this does help. I may try the Skinceuticals C. I try everything else! I was a sun worshipper on and off when I was younger. I used tanning beds too! So sorry I did that! And, of course, they told us that tanning beds were safer than the sun. It didn't make sense, but I bought it because I wanted to believe it. Did you have the IPL done with a regular dermatologist or did you use someone who does plastic surgery? I am so nervous to do it, but I know it's the only thing that will truly make a difference. I believe it is a series of treatments and I know it's expensive, I have psoriasis on my face and I wonder if they will do the procedure? Psoriasis is not like excema, my face can withstand acids etc. I know they recommend the 'light box' for people with psoriasis - I have it very bad, probably 40- 50% of my body. I need to find a good dermatologist and see what they can do for me. The med's are not working like they should - this is really much more than I wanted to get into - LOL! Sorry for the TMI!! Thanks for getting back to me, I appreciate it! Take care xoxoxo

[@unwindknitting]

I agree that you would like the Retrouve eye cream. I really like it at night. I’m loving the Barbara Sturm anti-aging serum. I don’t know what is in it that works so well, but my skin loves it. I’m enjoying my Ziip and really want to be dedicated to using that in 2020. I want to try your cleansing balm. I’m using the Retrouve (my 2nd tub) and find I don’t love the smell of the Eve Lom. I agree that less is more and we don’t have to have every product to have healthy, happy skin.

[@AbbyBlissWhite]

Stephanie- that is so funny! I feel like my skin just eats up the anti-aging serum and my skin feels so smooth and happy but just wish it was CHEAPER. LOL! ANd you got me back to being more consistent with my ZIIP. It really works if you are consistent with it. LOVE it! And yes, the RETROUVE is next on my list. Cheers to our LESS is MORE approach to 2020!!

[@privatetatum]

Happy New Year, Abby!! I recently ordered the Amore Pacific Vintage Essence during a sale and I am salivating for it to come in! Did you see one of Penny's latest videos about Defenage? When I saw it one of my first thoughts was "Abby's got money like that, I wonder if she'll try it", lol! Do you think you'll try it?

[@AbbyBlissWhite]

Awesome roundup! Barbara Sturm's mask is a must try though I don't fall for her other products.

[@AbbyBlissWhite]

Oh no! I have tried a sample of that mask and thought it was good but now you are making me want to try the full size. MY true standout is the Face Cream Rich. My skin just really loves it! Thank you for sharing. xoxo

[@MyLifeWendy]

loved this Abby!! Happy New Year!

[@privatetatum]

Sorry, last comment: I think you might really like Fit Glow's Cloud Ceramide Balm. It's not an oil balm, it's more like a pressed whipped cream. I have super dry and dehydrated skin and it's the most moisturizing thing I've ever used. It's also clean and much cheaper than your Biologique. Plus you can buy refills and safe on wasted packaging.

[@privatetatum]

"save"...

[@AbbyBlissWhite]

I love that brand and have tried several things but not the Ceramide Balm. I will check it out. THANK You for the heads up! xoxo

[@mycottonkitty]

I have been waiting for this video!!!!!! 😍 Because of you I love Dr Barbara Sturm products, I don’t understand why people hate her🤷🏻‍♀️, I love her HA because it does something to my skin, and the cream is 👌🏼 My next on my list is the SkinCeuticals C E FERULIC... thank you

[@AbbyBlissWhite]

I agree! I wish her pricing was about $100 cheaper and I think people would LOVE her products. AND yes, I got some hate for loving the HA but it truly is unique and my skin loved it!!! I think I might like that better than the Super Anti-Aging one.. but had to try it. And I just got another tub of the Rich CREAM. True love for that guy. AND yep- skinceuticals CE is just my go-to for decades. LOVE it!! Thank you for watching. xoxo

[@MWall]

Hi Abby, Now you have me wondering if I received the new or old version of the Lait 02 cleanser. I like it but I have no way of knowing if the next time I order it, will it be the new version, or did I already purchase the new version. Is their an identifying ingredient that I can check or is it just a feeling you have because you know the product so well? Thanks for providing your favorites. It's so helpful. I have the Vernix on my wish list. I'm still experimenting with the AB The Cream and The Rich Cream. I bought the mini set so I could compare. I'm having pretty good comfortable skin since I started. It's very annoying to not know how much I have in the bottle. At my age and skin conditions, I'm almost happy to have a neutral result. I love the Amore Pacific Treatment Enzyme Peel. It's like a powdered cleanser that provides cleansing and light exfoliation. Oh, the Barbara Sturm calming serum must be a little miracle worker. Wishing you and your family a very Happy New Year.

[@AbbyBlissWhite]

M Wall- I thought the the Lait ViP 02 - felt a little different when I got it- a bit thinner than what I was used to too. So when I was talking to my BR friend -MAYA- she mentioned she had the same feeling and that they had tweaked the formulation. IT is not terrible-- I just think the EV version is a bit thicker and creamier. Once I finish up this bottle I will be going back to EV. Keep me posted on your skin journey and HAPPY HAPPY NEW YEAR!!! Thank you for everything. xoxo

[@KateWoodehouse]

Hi Abby: for the Skinceuticals C serum, as the smell gotten any better? When I last used it, the smell was awful. People said it would dissipate quickly, but I noticed I could still smell it for at least an hour after I used it! The serum is supposed to be great - I'd love to be able to use it!

[@AbbyBlissWhite]

Lily- that is SO funny because I have never noticed the smell but have had several people ask me about it. I also had tried Maelove Glow Maker and recommended it to others because it was so much cheaper - but noticed the smell right away and had a few people give me their bottles because it was such a sharp metallic scent to them. So I am starting to wonder is my nose is 'off' or maybe I just have used it for so long that it has melded into my DNA. HA!!! I am going to PAY ATTENTION today when I use it and give you an update. xoxo

By the way, I have not been using a hydrating toner lately. I was using the Skin Medica HA5 but then was reading a bunch of negative reviews about HA in general, so I stopped. I was thinking of trying either the La Mer hydrating toner or the Amore Pacific. Which gives you better results?

@@Catherine-ds8wp I used to use the La Mer Treatment Lotion and then the Amorepacific Essence came into my life and I love it even more. It is chock full of antioxidants from the tea and very hydrating. I feel like a get a little more bang for my buck with the Amore! I hope this helps. xoxo

Happy New Year Abby! I am 65 if I hadn't mentioned it before (my mind still thinks I'm 19 and I've been told sometimes I act like a 12 year old...lol) My point is for ME I also think at my age that less is definitely more. I still do some acids and once a week Retinol but my skin most of the time just wants to be left alone.....which I can't seem to do! I have taken care of my skin since I was a teenager so I think my skin looks darn good for my age. On the other hand I'm finding that it likes more calming products, I'm not dry in fact I am a bit oily most of the time. I recently was going to delve into the IS Cosmetics Youth Intensive Cream (expensive too) but from what little I've heard I think it may be too much for my skin. I got a sample of that Osmosis Mango Mask in an order I had placed and I really do like it. I like you, wear it to bed at night and most importantly my skin loves it and it's not too expensive! I really enjoyed this Abby! I am going to watch your Beauty Video now. Also would be interested in products that Calm the skin....I don't have red or irritated skin but am leaning more toward good products that "feed" the skin instead of something that peels and irritates....if you know what I mean. Sorry so long...ugh! Love you! xxoo

[@beverlysaylor7339]

You know Abby as I wrote this earlier I went to wash my face and I DO (and have) have some redness on one of my cheeks....no pimple just red and I have experienced this in the past off and on. I think I even mentioned to you that I thought I have a touch of Rosacea and now I really believe I do.

[@AbbyBlissWhite]

Beverly- I am learning that I need to TEMPER my TINKERING! I often get excited about TREATMENTS (harsh)and my skin does not like it and then it takes weeks to repair and I am like - why did I do that. LOL! SO yes- this year I am going to go with a LESS is MORE approach and NOURISH the skin. After my horrible rosacea outbreak- which I think I triggered with a micro-needling/vitamin a treatment - it took 4 months for my skin to calm down and repair itself. We think the aesthetician applied a topical that is a no/no after micro-needling - and I have had one session done without incident recently- BUT I am always scared. So cheers to CALMING, SOOTHING, products and a LESS is MORE APPROACH in 2020!! xoxo

@@AbbyBlissWhite What would you say have been the best calming products for your skin? You mentioned the BS Calming Serum, do you think that helps? Anything else? Sorry for the questions but I think we are on the same path and would love your input.

[@AbbyBlissWhite]

@@beverlysaylor7339 so that serum did really help calm my skin but I got it on SALE and would hate for you to spend $$$ on it - full price - if you know what I mean. LOL! The biggest help has been using a creamy cleanser to cleanse my skin, I swear by the Lotion P50 V for equalizing and balancing my skin and then finding a good hydrating moisturizer that works for your skin. I know the acid seems counterintuitive to the CALMING process but my skin really responded well to creamy, cleanser, Lotion P50v and then the BR Vernix masque. That is what I started with and my skin calmed down. I do LOVE serums but too many actives can also be problematic. SO when I have a little outbreak- I will go back to basics and yes- that calming serum helps but reducing the product load is probably more beneficial. Does that make sense?

[@marianneg7571]

We have a lot in common! Funnily, I am also finishing the Sisley eye cream and need a recommendation for a majorly moisturizing and firming eye cream. Do you know anything about the BR Biofixine eye cream? I was also contemplating the Sublimage. My skin is really in need of the ultimate right now (lost weight, winter skin, and years adding up). Your routine has worked very well for you! Another question: Is the Barbara Sturm Rich cream more moisturizing than BR creme MSR H? Thanks in advance!

[@AbbyBlissWhite]

Hello Marianne- we are in the same boat! Okay- so the eye creams i am looking at are the BR Biofixine (I have tried a sample and liked it)- the Retrouve Eye Serum, Sublimage, and now the Derm Institute Eye Cream that Jessie just talked about in the above comment. As far as the Sturm Rich Cream- it is SO hydrating but does not feel heavy. I did love the MSR H but it would feel HEAVY sometimes on the skin. Let me know what you decide and I will do the same!

[@marianneg7571]

@@AbbyBlissWhite Ooh, that Derm Institute cream looks good too - a lot of peptides! I see you only "liked" the Biofixine. It's hard: I go to the spa, I spend a lot, but they are so stingy with samples. I always have to ask and they usually don't have the good ones :(. I think they send a lot to the people that do mail order, but don't give them to facial clients. Crazy. It's hard to decide, because I really want so much from my eye cream right now (more than is reasonable, probably). The Sisleya was pleasant, but didn't do anything. FYI, I must be drier than you, because the MSR H didn't feel heavy for me, but I'm in my latest 50s, so that may make sense. I'm even finding my beloved Future Skin to get a little dry-looking as the day passes now. Have you tried the Sublimage foundation and is that more hydrating or is any other foundation compared to FS? I'm looking more towards medium coverage at this point. Sorry for the novel.

[@AbbyBlissWhite]

@@marianneg7571 I just don't remember being like 'I have to get this eye cream ASAP' regarding the Biofixine and only try a sample. I had a very similar experience - after going to NYC and getting a facial from Rescue Spa - $$$$ and then buying some $$$ products- they did not give me any other samples. I was sort of like REALLY?? I know I should have asked but was sort of shocked they did not include or offer after spending so much money with them. I do have the Sublimage Foundation and am actually wearing that TODAY. It is a really hydrating nice foundation and it gives you a light to medium coverage. I love it! I feel like it gets better by the end of the day too. Now there is a REALLY expensive eye cream that they use at Rescue Spa - MBR SMOOTH EYE CREAM 100- amzn.to/2Xs9Aiz . ($$$$- but AMAZING!) It is crazy expensive but was the most amazing eye cream I have ever tried but I just can't spend that much on an eye cream.... or at least not right now. LOL!! I hope this helps! xoxo

@@AbbyBlissWhite It's good to know you like the Sublimage foundation! I may need to hit the counter and try to score some eye cream samples. Before I found out I had a BR salon in my city I had contacted Rescue Spa to get the P50 and their recommendations and they recommended that eye cream highly! But, yeah, that's a little much, especially without trying in person! It sounds fabulous, though! I just noticed that it's mediocre at this point, as they now sell the MBR the BEST eye for $1,222.00! I don't even want to know..... I think the Chanel counter will be next, wasn't sure, because once you stop there, you're not going to hear about other brands, like La Prairie. I'll report back and I'll check out your channel, of course :).

[@marianneg7571]

@Abby Bliss White Well, got the Sublimage eye cream! The Chanel rep put a little over my makeup under one eye and it looked better immediately, felt better, too, so I was sold. She told me it was the best-selling eye cream in our NM. She also gave samples of Sublimage creme (x2), masque, cleanser, and made me a sample of foundation in 12 (I'm even paler than I thought, but it seems a lovely match), so I'm going to see if my fine lines are going to look diminished after this. At any rate, this is how you treat customers: you help them and give them stuff to try - if it's good, they'll come back for more!

Happy New Year Abby!!

Happy Happy New Year Liz!!!! xoxo

Curious to know if you have tried the ELEMIS Rose balm or the original. I think they are wonderful.

[@AbbyBlissWhite]

Zoe- believe it or not- I have yet to try the Elemis Balm. I need to try that. Again- thank you for the reminder!!! xoxo

[@SyuzenaPitz]

Are you using Biologique Recherche toner every day? I use 2 times a week, did you try their collagen serum? I bought and introduced to my skincare routine one week ago, so, don't see a huge difference in such a short time. Happy Year 2020!

[@AbbyBlissWhite]

I use the BR Lotion P50 V version twice a day - pretty much everyday - unless I am doing a retinol at night and on those days- just use the retinol serum- no Lotion P50. I did use the Collegen Serum and I have found that my skin just eats up the serums but I am not sure if I see huge changes- just can feel that my skin is happy and comfortable if that makes sense. Happy Happy 2020!!!

[@SyuzenaPitz]

​@@AbbyBlissWhite Thank you Abby! Yes, i'm using P50 V ( bought also a small size P 50 but V version is better, i have an oily-mix mature skin). I started to be a huge fan of BR thanks your channel!

[@AbbyBlissWhite]

@@SyuzenaPitz oh yeah! I do really love the brand and found it overwhelming at first but have settled into some favorites! Cheers to a great year of SKINCARE! xoxo

Happy New Year Abby! ♥️

Happy Happy New Year Christine!!! Cheers to another great year. xoxo

Hi Abby. Happy New Year. Try Derm Institute Eye Cream. Miracle in a jar. I am in my late 50’s and this cream provided immediate results to dark circles, puffiness and wrinkles.

[@AbbyBlissWhite]

OOH.. thank you Jessie! I am checking it out ASAP! Happy New Year! xoxo

[@jessielum5283]

It is at Nordstrom. Derm Institute Youth Alchemy Eye Cream. Love the BR P50 BTW. Might try your other recommended BR products.

Happy new year Abby!!!!

Happy New Year to you too!!! xoxo

[@pericharis7811]

Abby did you ever use biofixine creme yeux et levres from biologique Recherche?

[@AbbyBlissWhite]

@@pericharis7811 I have used a sample and really enjoyed it!! I have not purchased it yet but it is on my LONG LIST! LOL!

[@mens.6640]

I love you explain products one by one . Love you from Thailand

[@AbbyBlissWhite]

Thank you! xoxo

[@privatetatum]

Okay, I misspoke; one more, lol. Have you tried the Glow Skin Beauty spf out in full sun?

[@AbbyBlissWhite]

Sumer- Yes- this one works for me out in full sun and I have sensitive skin. So it is a keeper for me. xoxo

[@privatetatum]

@@AbbyBlissWhite Then I will definitely give it a try next. Most every sunscreen I ever research all the comments talk about how it looks or how it does under makeup and I'm like "but does it WORK?!", lol

[@AbbyBlissWhite]

@@privatetatum although I miss the SUNSHINE - living here in the PNW-- we actually do get SUNSHINE-- I am someone who is legitimately sensitive to sun. I get sunstroke if I am out in the sun too long- thus, I have become pretty darn religious about my SPF and this one really works for me!! It does have a white cast at first - but it sinks in!! xoxo

[@catnip4587]

Niacinamide serum from the Ordinary also calms irritation and redness. Think it is under 10 dollars

[@AbbyBlissWhite]

Thank you so much! I have used that in the past and a bunch of stuff from the Ordinary and Niod as well. Some was great and others just okay. Thank you for the reminder. xoxo

[@privatetatum]

Do you have favorite collagen and greens supplements (separate items, or combined if that's possible)?

[@AbbyBlissWhite]

Sumer Tatum-Clem- I am a huge fan of the Vital Protein Beauty Greens go.magik.ly/ml/t7qx/ But if you are a vegan then I recommend: go.magik.ly/ml/t7qy/ and for Greens- 8Greens0- go.magik.ly/ml/t7qz/ Let me know if this helps. xoxo

[@zoegrant658]

CAUDALIE cru eye cream has been a favorite for years.

[@AbbyBlissWhite]

Yes- that is a good one! Thank you for the reminder!! xoxo

[@privatetatum]

What results do you get from Stem Factor? I've been using it, more consistently than any other product I've used, for about a month but I don't see any change.

[@AbbyBlissWhite]

Sumer- so one of the things that help keep my rosacea at bay is keeping my skin barrier intact and strong. So this guy has helped my sensitive skin stay calm and happy. I might be seeing more results because of where my skin started when I initially started using it. Does that make sense?

[@privatetatum]

@@AbbyBlissWhite Oh! Interesting! I have rosacea, too but haven't necessarily noticed a difference. Maybe I've not been paying close enough attention. :-)

[@AbbyBlissWhite]

@@privatetatum oh bummer! I am sorry you have rosacea too. It is no fun when you get a flare-up. Anyhow- this serum seemed to help but I don't think it is one of those that you go WOW! my skin looks so good. I noticed that it is was working once I used up a bottle and was like why is my skin being fussy and such- and was like oh.... I stopped using the Stem Cell Factor. Does that make sense??

[@nalinratt3179]

Thank for your video from Thailand 🇹🇭. Really hard to fine the review for Br in Thai.

[@AbbyBlissWhite]

Thank you for watching!!!! I glad you found this helpful. xoxo

[@juliafish8832]

Please be careful as the P50 mentioned here contains fennel which is an analgesic and is banned here in the UK. I have discovered Cyrille Laurent's Channel suggested by my own dermatologist he is a skincare scientist and stem cell researcher, I think that you and your viewers would be fascinated with his knowledge x

[@AbbyBlissWhite]

Thank you for sharing Julia! I know that the phenol can be a controversial ingredient and have read research on both sides of the argument but definitely want to check out this Cyrille Laurent. I love skincare research. Thank you! xoxo

[@dksosajfl]

Can you, or anyone please compare sunscreen glo to Elta brand? Elta is mostly physical is glo 100% physical sunscreen? Also, Wondering if Glo is too moisturizing thank you

[@AbbyBlissWhite]

I have used the Elta in the past and both of these are physical sunscreens- Glo = Active Ingredients: Titanium Dioxide 6.5%, Zinc Oxide 8.6%. This one is very moisturizing but it is not greasy. It sinks into the skin and is very calming to my skin. I am hoping someone else chimes in with their thoughts but I hope this helps . xoxo

[@TRWoods914]

I have used EltaMD, all physical, both untinted and tinted. I completely switched to Glo because it is excellent for my sensitive, acne-rosacea skin. It does sink in ...leaving no white cast. It doesn’t pill under my makeup (Chantecaille Future Skin) or cause any other issues. I adore it, as Abby got me hooked. I have at least seven different physical sunscreens, but Glo is my favorite. I will sometimes use Colorescience Sunforgettable Face Shield Tinted SPF 50 on a no makeup day. Hope this helps.

[@dksosajfl]

Dermatologist recommended Elta brand. Using Elta 45 for face and body for the longest time I thought it was physical sunblock but recently discovered it also has octinoxate which is chemical. Some of their products do not have that ingredient. Will definitely try Glo. Thank you so much for your response Abby and Tammy.

[@dksosajfl]

Abby, do you get supported through Amazon purchases?

[@TRWoods914]

dksosajfl ~ EltaMD is also recommended by my dermatologist. I must use all physical SPF because chemicals such as avobezone and octinoxate burn by face and eyes. For a few years, I used EltaMD’s UV PHYSICAL SPF 41. It’s approved for post-procedure skin. It’s lightly tinted. It has a mousse texture, but it’s slightly darker than my pale skin. (I typically wear the shade porcelain in foundation.) I have also used EltaMD’s UV REPLENISH SPF 44. It’s nice, but too moisturizing for me. (I was using Colorescience Sunforgettable Face Shield over that in the center of my face for coverage, but I’d have to powder it down. I tend to be oily.) Indeed there are excellent EltaMD products, but Glo just performs better for me under foundation. Just wanted to clarify that Glo is my personal preference.

[@marydonovan4174]

Why do you always go back to Emma Harding?

[@AbbyBlissWhite]

Mary- that is a good question. I just find it is the most comforting, effective cleansing balm. I have to order it versus being able to buy it locally- thus the reason I often bounce around a bit but once I go back to Emma- I am always like this is the BEST! Takes my makeup off lickety split and just is a true joy to use. It smells good too! Does not sting my eyes. I just love it! xoxo

[@marydonovan4174]

@@AbbyBlissWhite Thanks so much for the reply. I love it too but have to purchase online, so I usually just get Clinique TTDOB, but will definitely get Emma Hardie again. Love your videos
