You had me when your sonorous voice uttered, "None of that ashiness." You're doing the Lord's work. Also, if your skin is your business card business better be booming. You're skin looks fabulous and thank you for the information!

[@kedeeky]

For those who are seeing this in 2022 like myself, I'm here to tell my fellow brown girls that the Neutrogena Hydro Boost Moisturizer w/ SPF 50 is THE BUSINESS. I'm so glad I saw this video and took a chance on that option because it really does absorb clearly and does not leave me feeling/looking like an oil slick. It has that initial tackiness of any moisturizer as it's settling in, but nothing outrageous. This is my new go-to and even at $19ish, still well under the $40 I'd have to pay for the bigger brands.

[@trnigyul]

Ive been using it for three years and never looked back, it dries down nicely and leaves a beautiful glow (not grease) with no cast at all. I hope they never discontinue this.

[@mela2939]

Thank you so much for this video. I’ve been looking for affordable mineral sunscreens for brown skin and I can not believe the prices on brands recommended by so many influencers and websites. For something that you are supposed to continuously use everyday… forever… how on earth can I afford to keep up??! I really appreciate you. Thank you.

[@DrPennicott]

Glad you were able to find some useful options!

[@TobieFagbohun]

Wow, the Walgreens Zinc Sunscreen actually shocked me. I thought it'll remain ashy but it actually absorbed. I'll have to try it. Thanks for this video.

[@DrPennicott]

Yes! I was surprised the first time I used it as well. Thanks for checking out the video 🙂

[@justfantastic444]

[@DrPennicott]

wow! hi hope you are doing well!

[@tellatt4211]

Neutrogena tend to break my skin out, I'm gonna try the Korean sunscreen.

[@ssslilac]

Omg im sorry that sucks, I was thinking about buying Neutrogena because my Korean sunscreen rounds to $31 (shipping included) and I don't want to drain my back account all the time:,) at this point I just wanna go to a drugstore and grab a non-whitecase sunscreen😭 but may I ask, do you have oily or dry skin and did you use the spf 25 face version or the body version?

[@priscawilliam2414]

Because that works well for dry skin amd normal skin but not for oily skin

[@renee3356]

Don’t have kids, but subscribed because I want to support a beautiful black doctor! And, because I need sunscreens that don’t make me look ashy lol

[@sometzge]

Lol same

[@DrPennicott]

Thank you so much! I appreciate it.

[@creativequeen8371]

Thank you so much for not just showing affordable options, for something we would need to buy repeatedly, but for the demonstration. Know which I will buy, now.

[@DrPennicott]

I'm glad you found it helpful. I'll be coming out with another video all on mineral options.

[@tyresseferguson2462]

I'm interested in the black girl sunscreen because I have heard great reviews but right now I'm using the Biossance one and have 5 more after that.

[@nooropiaa2253]

Saw you under a vanitta rattan comment, thank you for these options

[@DrPennicott]

Awesome, happy to help!

[@jessie4joy]

Standing in the sun screen isle of Walmart watching your video to help choose! Thank you SO MUCH! I’m getting the neutrogena lotion and the stick

[@DrPennicott]

No problem!

[@denisenatasha]

Hi sweetie, this was such a wonderful video, for the gorgeous black sisters who are looking for "AFFORDABLE" sunscreens. I love the fact that you took the time to explain how important it is skin health wise , than to just jump into suncreens options , thanks a million. The last 3 tends to always be way too strong for me the nuetrogena brands , but I,m going to try the one in the black tube , can't recall the name......lol........GREAT VIDEO.....well done to perfection 👏👏👏👏👏

[@lunallena5594]

I have white skin and I don't like how the white cast settles into lines and rubs off on my clothes. I found this vlog helpful, thank you!

[@mikaellaahn]

Thank you for reviewing walgreen sunscreens! No one has talked about them yet and Bc of this video I now have three affordable options!! 💕💕💕

[@DrPennicott]

Happy to help!

[@daradina9187]

Thank you so much for saying the affordable spf's

[@futoma21]

So glad you focused on drugstore brands! Thank you for the informative video!

[@daniellek6603]

Great info! The Black Girl magic and Neutrogena was not a hit for me and irritant my face a lot. I think the mineral works best at this point. I am using Cerave and okay so far. I thank u for the Korean info and Walgreens samples and will check out.

[@n3nasmith]

Thank you for the information it was very informative. I actually never use sunscreen because I am dark-skinned and didn't realize I needed it. I actually love the Neutrogena especially the one you use for your face

[@michellesalazar9781]

You saved me and my wallet with the walgreens sunscreen ❤️❤️

[@saraghiraldo5322]

Guys, I'm from Italy. A black friend of mine doesn't use SPF 'cause she can't find an SPF without a white, gray, or blue cast for body and face. So if anybody has suggestions, please write them down below. Here I can find easily La Roche Posay, Uriage, Nivea, or Rilastil.

[@hoNestlayY̆]

Thank you *so much!!* My broke ass self could never afford some of the ones I was seeing in other videos. Saved my skin's life!

[@sindiaj_]

I’m going to purchase the Neutrogena Hydro Boost City Shield. Thanks for this video!

[@tumiogundele2098]

That’s my favorite sunscreen,especially for my sensitive skin!

[@chimz1310]

If you have access it trader joe's the face and body one is also pretty good, simple, cheap, and follows all these guidelines and it's reef safe!!

[@DrPennicott]

Thanks for the tip!

[@princess-mt4mt]

Honestly the Neutrogena sunscreen would work even better if it had no fragrance.

[@TheJoker718]

A = aging, B = burning. such a great way to remember that!

[@nellyd9280]

Thank you much!!! I always skipped sunscreen from getting purple as a child!!!!

[@alvararichards4759]

I use the Black Girl sunscreen, it absorbs completely without the ghostly look. I will be trying the Korean sunscreen.

[@DrPennicott]

Glad to hear it!

[@stacykennely448]

Thank you for giving us more options for sunscreens for Darker Skintones that’s also affordable. This video is so helpful and needed.

[@butterclumpify]

Your video was very helpful. I have been looking for the best AFFORDABLE mineral sunscreen for a week now and it’s been stressful. I am glad I found your video because I just made an amazon order for the Australian Gold! Super excited ☺️ Thank you!

[@DrPennicott]

Great!

[@annabellak4033]

Good video. I don't wear sunscreen, I will try a few if these. I burn so easy, I get three shades darker in minutes. It's caused face discoloration, makes me look tired and aged. I need more moisturizing too. Florida sun is no joke.

[@Iamblessed12345]

Will be buying the Walgreens one. Thank you!!

[@rainbowkiki131]

I love the Hydro Boost City Shield Face Moisturizer. It really is light and moisturizing. Thanks for the other options

[@DrPennicott]

That’s a great choice!

[@RG-sb2yb]

So happy I came across ur channel 💗💗 I love your vibe , your voice is so relaxing , sending you many blessings.

[@cocoagorgeouss]

I love the Neutrogena Hydro Boost one I use it everyday

[@alanisarroyo3109]

Hi, I heard the Neutrogena Hydro boost has alcohol and fragrance. Throughout the time you have been using it, have you felt your face get super dry?

[@cocoagorgeouss]

@@alanisarroyo3109 No, it’s actually very hydrating to me. My skin is also very oily.

[@are3581]

Wow, definitely buying it now the walgreens one. Thank you Doc!

[@DrPennicott]

Awesome!

[@are3581]

@@DrPennicott unfortunately it did not work out. It burned my skin 😢 but it works on my sister without an issue.

[@DrPennicott]

[@perfectkarma1209]

When you said, "Nobody wants a sunscreen that's gonna make them look like Thanos.." I died!!! I need a mineral sunscreen or at the least a hybrid formula to avoid an allergic reaction. Thanks for this video!

[@DrPennicott]

Lol! You're welcome.

[@sweetbrownsuga504]

I'm here bc I don't want to look like Thanos🤣🤣🤣

Only halfway through the video and it is already very helpful. Thanks!

[@DrPennicott]

You're welcome!

[@marlon-eric]

Love the Apieu and Netrogena lines. But since my eyes are getting too sensitive, I'm opting for a mineral sunscreen, so from your video - I'll be trying the Australian Gold. Hope it don't look like I have on too much makeup with the tint. lol

[@lucillechapman2452]

Thank you! There are two dermatologists that I follow, but you made it so much more simple!

What a great presentation. Thank you Dr Pennicott. Easy to follow and to the point. I really liked the Black Girl sunscreen although I wish there was a mineral option. I also liked the Neutrogena Hydro Boost City Shield for face, and the Hydro Boost SPF 50. I'm going to try them all.

[@DrPennicott]

Thank you! Hopefully BGS will be coming out with a mineral option soon.

[@1LocWonder]

That Neutrogena Hydroboost is bae!

[@janicebillingsley4595]

I have very sensitive eye and most sunscreens irritate my eyes. So I have been using a zinc sunscreen which makes me looks like Casper the friendly ghost. Can you do a a review on sunscreens that are good, but won’t irritate the eyes. Thank you.

[@barbaraelody69]

So useful. Neutrogena is the one I'll try.

[@kadzo6614]

Do affordable mineral sunscreen that does not leave a white cast at all. Thanks

I thought like Never again ! thanks so much for this fantastic video it was very helpful

Which of these are mineral sunscreens? Great video!

[@insoulmniac]

thank you so much for this video i just bought the korean sunscreen

[@gb7814]

What’s your opinion on activated ingredients percentages in sunscreen? Does is really matter? I tried the Walgreens ”baby” mineral sunscreen and it’s amazing but only has 3.1% titanium dioxide and 4.0% zinc oxide.

[@tedoymisojos]

I quite like the BGS kids, around $10 for 3 ounces.

[@ninav4432]

Thank you so much! Such great options!

Glad I came across your video I have been forgetting to use it on the reg, but as soon as I get to work I remember, smh It require me to go out sometimes!! Lol Im literally a shade darker on my arms thank for the suggestion Abt to purchase I think I will start with Neutrogena & A’Pieu but are they all good for the face?

[@WolffAllergyAsthmaDetroit]

Great informative video!!

[@medalatsbha6896]

Hey hun, is the Korean sunscreen mineral or chemical?

[@gisellemendoza9025]

What spf # do u recommend? Does it depend on how dark your skin is? For reference my foundation shade is 322 warm honey FIT me! by Maybelline

[@16celixe73]

30 spc is fine but if you find a higher one that you are happy with then go for it!

[@DrPennicott]

Great question, SPF means sun protection factor. SPF 30 blocks 96.7% UVB rays vs spf 50 that blocks 98% so as you can see the protection level is very similar. So go with the brand you like. I tend to use SPF 50 if I know I'll be at the beach or park with lots of sun exposure. Most important is to reapply sunscreen every 80 min or the interval recommended on the bottle instructions.

[@sunnyboateng180]

Well done !!

[@bridgetbarnett6423]

Great review!

[@ClemzeeA]

So the Australian Gold is the sole mineral sunscreen option? I wanted to confirm. Thank you

[@sukwanthomas9434]

I think that black bottle sunscreen rubbed in the best it looked look lotion tbh

[@deedee6943]

Which sunscreen would you recommend for oily skin?

[@june2110]

This video would have helped if it was something I could find in the store or walmart

[@amandaluvzu22]

Love this video!! I have 1 question about the tinted sunscreen. Will the tint rub off on my face mask? Or get on my clothes?

[@DrPennicott]

When it is fully rubbed in, I haven't noticed an issue with it rubbing off on my clothes/mask. But that also can depend on how much is applied.

[@latericahughes1059]

I’m definitely going to Walgreens tomorrow just to get this

[@DrPennicott]

Glad I could help!

[@apriljackson7323]

Hi how are you doing today? Thanks so much for posting this video. It was so very helpful. what is the difference in the numbers on the bottles ? Like for example the Neutrogena has spf 50 so should we as darker-skinned go for higher numbers are does it matters ?

[@JaeJay0]

which of these are good for oily acne prone skin?

[@__-nd5qi]

Oh for ashiness

[@xoxo7631]

Since the walgreens sunscreen is a combination sunscreen, do I still need to wait 15 minutes for it to set before going out like a chemical sunscreen?

[@DrPennicott]

Great question! Yes, you should still apply it about 15-20 min before going outside.
