I get so many complements on my skin [I'm 34, almost 35] and I just tell them sunscreen. They think I'm crazy but I always say it's never too late to start wearing it!

[@megglesy]

I'm so happy that you tested the Bondi Sands sunscreen! I noticed that Coles (Australian supermarket) had almost their entire range of skin care products at half price. I picked up their "Thirsty Skin" hydrating hyaluronic serum and loved it so much I went back a couple of days later and bought multiples of the "Thirsty Skin" serum, their "Daydream" hydrating whipped moisturiser (my absolute favourite!), the "Fresh'n Up" nourishing gel cleanser, "Gold'n Hour" brightening vitamin C serum and their Lip Balm with SPF 50+ Previously I've exclusively used Shiseido products for the past two decades and I can honestly say that I much prefer the Bondi Sands products. My skin isn't irritated after applying moisturiser, it's Australian Made and a fraction of the price. Fellow Australians, keep your eye on Coles specials for when it's half price (it's very affordable at it's full RRP anyway). Your skin and wallet will thank you!

[@destinylamont]

I can’t wait to try the beet the sun again!! It was my favorite!!! I’m using the Beauty of Josen sunscreen… it’s good but im very neutral about it.

I really rate the Bondi Sands sunscreen. It doesn't break me out and I went camping in 40 degree weather and didn't get burnt! I didn't have the highest hopes as I usually use the Mecca To Save Face or La Roche Posay one so it was a very pleasant surprise considering the cost.

[@Siuuuu-yt7uv]

Does the Bondi sands sunny daze moisturiser act as a pure sunscreen or a moisturiser + spf? The labelling is confusing me n idk if it means I stop using my normal moisturiser for me to use this one.

[@hope9457]

@@Siuuuu-yt7uv if it feels enough hydration for you then you can use it alone

[@0hH3yyy]

Omg the Purito sunscreen is my go to! It’s sooooo moisturizing, light and invisible on the skin. It is also one that doesn’t irritate my sensitive skin! Also I love that there’s no scent.

[@deecal4104]

I finished Beauty of Joseon and love it so much. I told myself it would be my go-to but I can’t help myself in trying different products. Just opened d’Alba UV Water Essence spf 50 PA++++ and OMG. It is perfection!!!

[@deecal4104]

@@bobbobbo5278 isn’t it amazing 🥹 I would say the d’Alba is a bit more moisturizing and I have to let it dry down if I’m applying makeup but can def skip moisturizing step. My skin type is pretty normal. Maybe since warm weather is approaching stick with BofJ and wait on colder months for d’Alba. Plus BofJ is more affordable ⭐️

[@22rajiboo]

I had the Bondi Sands original sunscreen and it was 9/10 but it was greasy for the 1st 10 mins after application. The Aveeno Protect + Hydrate Lotion - SPF 30 - 3oz...is perfection. No cast on dark skin, easy rub in, affordable, pleasant scent. My new fav 😍

[@drjuliansass]

So many of my faves here! That nice birdie one is combo tho and not mineral, which is why it worked so well for you (I just ordered it all I can see how it works on me 🤣) that AHC stick though is LEGENDARY, I am obsessed

[@katec.4361]

Now I’m really convinced to try the AHC sun stick. I just wish it weren’t so small for the price but off I go to purchase… 💸💸

[@katandrews8502]

Where can I buy the AHC sun stick in the UK?

[@teoleno4019]

I have used a lot of sunscreens over the years, but I always come back to the Etude House Sun Dance SPF 50 sunscreen or Nivea Sensative SPF 50 one.

[@P1nkPrinc3sss]

Loving the gray in the hair and beard! ❤️ Great sunscreen review too!

[@laurentius3254]

great video! the search for good sunscreens feel never ending sometimes. the Dr G Nice Birdie Up Sun is a hybrid sunscreen not a purely mieral one tho, there are also chemical filters in it.

[@katec.4361]

Yes, I looked it up on Incidecoder and the chemical filters are the new generation ones: Uvinul A Plus, Uvinul T 150, and Tinosorb S.

[@baileydubs]

My fav of recent has been the Scinic enjoy super mild sun essence! Has a nice glow but sinks into the skin and doesn’t leave it greasy, but still works well on my dry skin over moisturizer

[@eveningstar8581]

Is it sweat and water resistant?

[@baileydubs]

@@eveningstar8581 no, it’s just a regular sunscreen, I wouldn’t wear it if I was going in water or sweating

[@katec.4361]

Oooh, thanks for reviewing the AHC Masters sun stick. I’ve been looking at it because it’s water resistant but I’ve been hesitant because it’s only 14g so therefore kinda pricey. My current favorite for reapplication on my dry skin has been the Abib Quick sun stick. Update: the AHC Masters sun stick is my new favorite! It’s semi-matte, and feels lighter and silkier than the Abib Quick sun stick. Since it’s rated for 80-minutes water resistance, I’ll be using it more when the weather gets hot. The light scent is from bergamot and other citrus essential oils, which I like the smell of and doesn’t irritate my sensitive skin. It’s one of the few sunscreens I can use on my eyelids, and it doesn’t affect the way my eyeshadow wears. Yes, the packaging is nice but it uses excessive plastic for the small amount of product. I found out there’s a 22g size so I ordered that as a backup.

[@LADYSILVERWOLF028]

Perfect timing! I am in Florida (US), it is already time to use my higher SPF sunscreens. I have sensitive skin, so I enjoy your videos.

[@bajanbreezy]

I love the Naturium dew glow. I get a light stinging on my eyes when it accidentally runs down. I love the Naturium on trips because I dont have to bring a moisturizer for the morning. I wish the other two sunscreen you mentioned (Krave and the other one) sold at Ulta or Sephora. My top 2 fav moisturizer with spa are the Fenty and now the Naturium.

[@Xi0NGoo]

I bought the regular CKD sunscreen and the tinted version a few months ago and they both definitely collect around the hair line. I learned how to use them since I didn't want to waste them. To get a better application/reapplication, you have to apply in thin layers (2 or 3 layers for full protection) as to not get it in the hairline. It is pasty, but works for very pale skin like mine.

I just picked up the Missha all Around Safe Block Essence SPF 45 and it works so wonderfully under makeup-no pilling, which had become my issue. My new goto!

[@nicolew5472]

I love the natrium products!! The moisturizer and cleansing balm are really nice as well.

[@SheilaR.08]

This is so helpful! The first three, the Bondi Sands, Krave, and Naturium, sound perfect for me. Do you have any recommendations for a reapplication sunscreen spray that doesn't contain alcohol? It's hard to retouch over makeup, and the few SPF powders don't suit me. Thank you! 😊

[@amandaparei]

I wonder if Dr. G has a inactive sunshield ingredient in it like Michelle from LabMuffin talks about? That may be why it doesn’t have a white cast?

[@ErikBPG]

15:20 It's likely that they're using an "SPF booster" which is basically just a chemical uv blocker. Labbmuffin has covered how many "mineral suncreens" actually are combination.

[@krisuy8862]

The Dr. G sunscreen looks so good. I'm definitely trying tgat one. I also want to try the Naturium one but it's not available here in the Philippines yet.

I use La Roche Posay UVMune SPF50+ because it is the ONLY chemical sunscreen that doesn't sting my eyes. It's perfect. The only new thing I want to try now is their stick version, for re-application.

[@MsPrucka]

Great video, thanks for review of these, there are couple of those I do want to try.... I was surprised how Purito one sat nicely on your skin, ordered recently and have been trying for good few days now, it doesn't matter how i apply it to my skin (tried it by itself, over few diff serums and creams, just toner, nothing at all...) it makes my face look like a shiny/greasy 100 years old disco ball, and my skin is very very dry, so I don't understand why I got this effect... Very disappointing though cause only heard good reviews about it, but it will end up as my summer hand cream to use while im driving...

[@p.williams]

Thank you!! Always looking for my holy grail sunscreen. Supergoop unseen is the best I've found, but I've been testing more this year. And reapplication is so difficult! I've tried the powders and they're difficult

Personally I love Evy technology daily defense face mousse spf50. I’m a welder and are exposed to a lot of UV during my working hours and it’s very convenient with a long lasting sunscreen, however I experience a little bit of stinging if I use it around the eyes but nothing is perfect🤷‍♀️

[@alexisthompson3920]

I have the naturium one and it's good with makeup too.

[@Denig37]

Skin79 - Waterproof Sun Gel BEST face sunscreen EVER I swear! The only issue with it is the damn packaging. I loathe the bottle with passion of thousand burning suns. If you are more than halfway through it's almost impossible to get it out, it's so hard to squeeze, the plastic is very hard and rigid and I always have to cut it open and re-pot the product somewhere else. But it's sooooo good and very affordable too! The BEST Korean sunscreen I would say.

[@carinaoliveira5850]

We really need a mattifying compact pressed powder sunscreen hybrid. This probably exists, but I don't hear a lot about these kinds of "top-up" sunscreen products other than that brush on one from I believe Supergoop, which I feel doesn't press the powder sunscreen right onto the skin and instead just flutters it everywhere. My pet peeve is when I'm wearing makeup for outdoor events during the summer, and I need to blot the greasy looking or sweaty looking parts of the face, but it would be amazing if there was a high amount of sun protection too.

Note on the Bondi sunscreen being tinted. I've been told/heard that mineral sunscreens can have that tint because of the minerals not because they are tinted. Don't know if it applies to Bondi as well.
