These are all mineral sunscreens please let me know in the comments section if you want a review of the new chemical sunscreens or body sunscreen recommendations.
Sunscreen is vital for anyone with hyperpigmentation, dark marks, melasma, preventing the visible signs of aging and of course skin cancer. Please wear sunscreen every day!
I did notice a slight white cast on my skin, with most of the sunscreens but that’s because this is a 100% mineral filter sunscreen, formulated only using Zinc Oxide &/or Titanium Dioxide as the active UV filter ingredients. These mineral actives are white powders, so a 100% mineral sunscreen can leave an ashy, purple or white cast on some skin tones. These are some of the best I have used so far at minimizing the cast. Supergoop Sheer Screen and Olay Mineral are also AMAZING options. I recommend applying onto the skin in small sections.

Thank you for doing the work for us, Dr. Alexis. I'm Indian, and it's hard finding a good mineral sunscreen. I love SuperGoop's Unseen Sunscreen, but that is a chemical one.

Thank you for taking the time out to research these! I’ve realized that I react to niacinamide so I can’t use the Colorescience one. I’ve tried it and I get raises on my face. Same thing with another sunscreen that has niacinamide in it. However, I have tried the Biossance one you recommended in a previous video and it works for me! I love it! Thank you!

Hi Alexis, I enjoy all your videos. Thanks for sharing your knowledge free of charge. I want to feel confident in my dark skin just like other black African ladies. However, I feel a lot of them are bleaching or brightening their skin because they are getting lighter in skin tone. What is the difference between these two and is it safe to lighten skin tone? Thanks

[@RVC0902]

I want to try this new Colorescience one. I like the idea of tinted sunscreens however I wear makeup so I get my iron oxide protection from foundation anyways. I feel that Dr V's Unzincable is one that I am going to invest in because of the Melashield technology. I usually apply actives at night but if I have something that protects from the sun and has added hyperpigmentation benefits during the day with the Melashield, then that's intriguing. I don't think any of the other sunscreens had that included.

[@scentualempress]

You are literally a skin saver

Hi Dr. Alexis, this video has been so helpful in narrowing down on what to buy. I may have put in at least 10 hours of research to find what sunscreen to get. I really like the Colorescience product. However, I noticed it has some fragrance in it. Is it low enough that I can ignore it? I’m conscious of looking for NAFE-safe products as I hyperpigment a lot. Thank you for your response :)

[@gaelynwatson7994]

Thanks for the video! Will you also review the Urban Skin Rx Sheerglow mineral suncreen moisturizer? It doesn't contain iron oxides, but I'd love to hear your thoughts.

[@larasunshine7]

You are one of the most informative dermatologists on pigmentation (i have melasma) that I've ever seen on youtube. I would love love love to see a dermatologist such as yourself talk about chemical sunscreens for people with photosensitive issues. There are now many chemical sunscreens that use newer less irritating filters including ones that block visible light. There are many of us who keep hearing about how mineral sunscreens are better for people like us but I think this is incorrect. Some of the best sunscreen filters against short and long-wave UVA are chemical (or organic). Could a tinted chemical sunscreen work just as well? I myself generally tolerate chemical sunscreens. I'm sure I"m not the only one.

[@aliahchungong8197]

I live in Germany and as a poc it's very hard to find good sunscreen. Most sunscreens are either too greasy, leave a white cast or are too expensive. I've recently found a sunscreen "garnier ambre solaire uv fluid" but it has alcohol den. as second ingredient. Dr. Dray and many others have said that it's fine but I just wanted to know your opinion as a woc. A reply would be very helpful 🙏🏾❤

I'm black and live in the UK and I use kids once a day (last up to 8hrs...) by Calypso SPF 40, £6 from Asda. I'm about your colour and it leaves no cast or purple look on my face. It's non greasy and fine under makeup as well. And no irritation at all. I saw a program on TV that said UK suncare is a higher grade than in USA. Not sure why....

I have always been afraid of using sunscreens because I used one years ago and had a bad reaction. I do have hyperpigmentation and always wondered what I could do for my skin. I am not certain what I was actually allergic too so I just stopped using sunscreen.

WARNING to those who are about to buy the Colorescience (deep) based on this video. Try a sample or in store first if you can! My disappointment is unreal! I'm so grateful for this channel and Dr Alexis for trying out sunscreens for us but it had me looking like a ghost! She says she's NW45 in mac, I've also been matched NW45 in the past (haven't we all) but am actually more of an NC50. 420 in Fenty 5N2 in Estee. I will say it definitely doesn't look as bad on camera as it does in real life so maybe that's part of why it looks like it works for Dr Stephens. I also watched Danielle's review(Styleandbeautydoctor) and thought it didn't look terrible so I thought it would be fine on me as her skin is deeper than mine. The level of protection would have been perfect, SPF 50, demi-matte/non oily, visible light protection, water resistant but it literally feels like a paste and takes so much rubbing in to try to get it to blend (which it never does).

[@pilotjones9866]

I actually found zinc/titanium based sunscreen to be irritating on my face with someone who has hyperhidrosis. I’ve read the film inorganic sunscreens make on your skin, slows down the rate of evaporation of sweat, which cools you down. Every time I use them my face gets really hot, as if there’s little needles poking me, lol. I opt for European sunscreens, at baseline their uva filters offer greater protection than zinc, and never had issues for my skin.

[@meme0180]

@ Pilot Jones, Which ones do you use?

[@lorettayoung3088]

Good for you. Are you obese?

[@SSNUTHIN]

This actually happens to me when I am applying some foundations but goes away when it sets, I wonder if it's the same phenomenon? I just keep a fan on me while applying, but now you've got me wondering if it's some kind of reaction.

[@pilotjones9866]

@@SSNUTHIN hmm yea, I’d see if it’s just that one foundation. Maybe it’s a certain ingredient, or your foundation has zinc in it? I do know that for zinc, the film that prevents sweat evaporation is what causes the heat/needling poking and irritation. But everyone’s skin is different.

[@linzeeb4]

That makes sense! Inorganic sunscreens tend to be more irritating to me, too. I guess for opposite reasons though, I find them to be too astringent as someone with dry/sensitive skin. When I'm not using any actives and my skin barrier is in great condition I can use them no problem, but since I've started low dose tret I'm instead reaching for my favorite chemical sunscreens! 💕
