But Isn't purito sunscreen even lie that it's have spf50 but its only spf19???
Thank you!
Thank you!!!
Only Gothmista can occasionally upload & we all come running. 👍
Thank you *so much* for mentioning 3 sunscreens w/Meroxyl. I've had surgery to remove skin CAancer twice, once on face. Been looking for UV Mune 400/Meroxyl XS. 🥰
May I ask why you prefer UV Mune 400/ Meroxyl XS after cancer?
@lilbrunettepr
Don't take my word for it (can look up) but protects layers of skin that other sunscreens *cannot*
Which ones?
A vid on sunsticks would be SOOOOOO much appreciated. Trying to get kids to put on sunscreen AND reapplying it is a nightmare......
Lovely recs just wanted to let everyone know- that bellflower watermelon sunscreen is the same base formula as Purito green level sunscreen old low spf version and is made by greencos the same manufacturer …
Hello~what about Purito soft sunscreen? Is it Lowers quality like the purito sunscreen old?
I'm very confused😢
Oh hey! Yay! It’s Renee!!❤❤❤
I LOVE the new purito soft touch. As long as I don’t use too many serums under it it keeps me from looking too shiny like the daily go to. I love that it has several ceramides as well
The purito sunscreen only has spf19 ,In2020 news. Is it real???
Can we trust Purito now?🥺
@@salmonsivalentaif anything because of the controversy, purito is probably the brand you can trust the most because you know they have it completely tested this time around
Thank you so much for being so thorough and factoring in all the various textures and skin types etc. After various TH-camrs I respect (and still do😊) raved about the R and R mineral (yes I know that mineral suncream usually have different texture to chemical) sunscreen last year I purchased two online. I regret doing that as I cannot stand the stuff! 😂 for me, it feels, smells and looks like used cooking oil 🤦♀️🤮. I am not blaming anyone, I did learn a lesson though 🤦♀️🤣
Renee great reviews of Korean sunscreens ❤. Would you please do a review of tinted sunscreens?😊
yes please tinted sunscreen!
Yes please!
Yes! I’d love this too!
Good morning Renee. Perfect timing as we move into warmer weather. I’m also always open to trying new formulas.
Ty so much for making this video doll! I can only wear Korean sunscreen, as the American brands break me out! Will try your suggestions ❤
Korean sunscreens must haves!
I'm a situational sun screen wearer as well 😊I've been loving the Beauty of Joseon and Mary and May (cica) suncreens so far!
The best Korean Spf is the SKIN1004 Madagascar Centella Hyalu-Cica Water-Fit Sun Serum. I haven’t found anything that beats it. It’s lovely.
Does it burn your eyes thank you
@@amaristoledo4366 no, making sure it doesn’t irritate my eyes was important. Obviously it can effect people differently. But the Skin1004 hyalu-cica water fit sun screen does not sting my eyes or make them water. It’s just like applying a very light moisturiser. It’s a real pleasure to use. It’s the only spf I will use on my face currently. Hope it helps.
I’d love to know how it compares to BOJ sunscreen if you’ve ever tried it in terms of feel and finish. I am looking for something as lightweight as BOJ but with less shine.
Renee, do you have recommendation for non sticky, lightweight body sunscreens with advanced UVA filters (mexoryl, tinosorb, etc)?
The Benton "rosemary" scent to me smells like a lime popsicle - maybe the cooling lends to that as well - I love it in the winter!
I just finished watching the Glory and Moon dong eun reminded me so much of someone and I just realised its you! Beautiful! Xx
Great review, but the soft touch is actually dewy on me. I like the haru haru organic one more. Satin finish
Great timing with this. Thank you so much. Summer is coming and I’m on the hunt for a great summer sunscreen. I hate waiting (in Calif) but it works so well for my brown & combo skin. Be well.
Thank you Renee ❤
Great video thank you! I struggle to find good moisturisers that work well under spfs (I am based in the UK), would be great to know what other people use!
Plz recommend sweatproof suncreen
Ready for that sun stick video!!!
Isntree the best for me so far, because of its plumping effect. But thanx for other tips.
For you which sunscreen is beautiful dr ceuracle or tocoba????
I love Instree one.
Aaand I just bought the Beauty of Joseon SPF cream.
That one is hard to beat. I love it.
Are these chemical/physical sunscreen? Wonder if it’s fully safe for pregnant women?
Love the BofJ sunscreen and also the bellflower avocado sunscreen. I want to try the Isntree sun gel. I’m always on the lookout for ones that my kids will use without complaint. Will definitely try one of the sticks for them.
Love this video, very informative ❤ which one do you recommend for someone with brown skin (Filipina) that has sun spots?
Thank you for this thoughtful comparison video! I’m looking for a sunscreen that can replace my moisturiser. BoJ was not hydrating enough for me. After watching your video, is my interpretation right that Dr Ceuracle would be most hydrating as a moisturiser?
Hi 👋. Love your informative videos but can you please please do a video on the one’s that don’t burn your eyes!!! Please 🙏 I’m sure many women like me are so tire of spending hundreds of dollars on sunscreen that burn our eyes. Can you please tell us if you know which ones do not burn your eyes thank you. ❤❤
Am I the only one still scared to wear Purito sunscreens? Or any k
Brand for that matter?
Loved this video ,Dr jenny 🎉 ❤ xx
Renée, does the skio c, oxides with time like the obagi one?
I don't understand why Stylevana still even bothers with influencer collabs when they're having troubles fulfilling orders. Myself and many, many other people are not receiving our orders despite months of waiting. Emailing customer service doesn't help as they won't reply. And all comments on social media (Instagram) are being met with a copy&paste reply, which just makes it so much more aggrevating.
I’ve been waiting for my order for two months. It is okay. I just order 10 or 20 sunscreens so I’m never out of them. And I know the wait time of a new order takes long
Can you recommend a few sunscreens with very low alcohol? Most sunscreens, especially the watery lotions, enhance my wrinkles. They dry down and make my skin feel tight. I don’t want to be a shiny, slimy mess, either though! I need sunscreen to be moisturizing while still feeling like nothing on the skin….and needs to play well with makeup!
Thanks for your video!! I ordered the Ottis and Joseon viral sunscreen and more lol
Which of these would be best for rosacea prone skin please?
What about spf skin mists for easy sunscreen reapplication?
Will you please do a video on rosacea?? ❤
Amazing video.
Thank you so much!!!
Thank you so much for your recommendations and have been using a few of those. Decided to try a few of your new recommendations along with some Korean toners. Finally made the order from Stylevana last week. Have not heard back from them after payment made and order still in processing status Sent a few messages but not heard back 🤔
Thanks for the detailed and informative video! What nail polish are you wearing? It's lovely!
Great Review . Thank You!
Been waiting for this video! ❤
LOVE the Mary & May stick. doesn't hurt that it's also purple 💜 🥰
Hi! Is it scented?
@@nkurdy288 yes but not as strongly as like the tocobo one. It also goes away after a little bit. I think it's lavender
Could you please review the fragrance-free rohto Skin Aqua sunscreens!? Is it just me or are there several different ones? 😅
Skin care guru ❤️
First! I want to try a new chemical sunscreen
Can you review tinted sunscreen? Any new love?
Korean sunscreen are great for winter time at least for me I’m really pick and during warmer months I need them to be high UVA and water resistant 💦 so European for the winning :)
Wch one r u using dis summer??
I've been trying to find a spf good for acne that HAS a white cast or tint. Im really pale so I like the white cast. I've yet to find one that doesn't break me out ☹️
Please recommend tinted spf 😢😢thank you
I know that filter concentration can't be directly translated to an SPF value. But still I am a bit suprised at how low the filter concentrations are of these SPF products. It ranges from 7.84% to 8.6%. On average SPF50+ sunscreens often need 15-25%. So I am curious how they managed to reduce the filter content and boost the SPF to such an extend.. I'm not aware of any EU, Australian or US sunscreen that has been able to reduce the filter content so much...
Promo code doesn't seem to work :(
I'm really atruggling with eye stinging when using sunnscreen. Any of these better at not stinging the eyes?
Are any of these waterproof for swimming, etc?
I've tried tocobo sunscreen and it doesn't dry down quickly,. It feels sticky.
Most famous Korean sunscreen in Korea at the moment I guess, from Dalba.
Do these sunscreen sting the eyes? I have that issue
Can you give recommendations for body SPF?
Dear Gothamista/Renee, I wish to have recommendations of reasonable priced Korean cleansers , beautiful soothing hydrating toner like a beauty water , retinoids alternative pm for pre menopause skin prone to hormonal breakouts and hot flushes, dehydration/tight skin yet t zone texture and acne scars and uneven skin tone delicate skin that can't tolerate harsh ingredients but K Beauty uses beautiful ingredients and affordable please help 💖
Great suggestion, I’d be interested in seeing a video cover this topic as well! 👍🙂
Tocobo looks like Hada Labo UV White Gel? Or Canmake mermaid gel?
Ohh, can't ve shipped to Spain! 😢
My only problem with korean sunscreens (and skincare) is how obsessed they are about putting silicones and hyaluronic acid in everything. Silicones are for me hard to wash off and HA can cause inflammation of the skin and should also not be used with retinoids:/ But good luck finding korean sunscreens without these two ingredients
No Round Lab or Beauty of Joseon? 😮
好久不見🎉
很高興看到妳❤
Is it true when the sunscreen doesn't have a UVB & UVA protection ( UVA in a circle) mentioned on their packages that they wont really protect the skin especially from UVA as it goes deeper into the skin ??
There are several ways to show UVA protection. In Europe it is the UVA in a circle or the number of stars (4 or 5 is the max). In Asia it is the number of + that shows UVA protection. 5 or 4 + is the max.
@@HereDiianas ohh so the PA++++ are the ones showing the UVA protection level . Thank you so much , the thing in what I am seeing on the products we have in my country are only UVB and UVA in circle but when I want to bring a new product online and they don’t have the UVA in circle or mentioned i got confused. Thank you again for clarifying 🙏🏼❤️
Dear Renee, what is the robe you are wearing?
does anyone know if the tocobo one is good for sensitive skin??
Always a great Friday when there’s a Gothamista update. Good morning, Renee! ❤
Are any of the sunscreens water resistant? A lot of ksunscreens are really great to apply but many are not resistant to a lot of sweating in the summer or water exposure.
None of them are. Some japanese ones are but they contain alcohol usually.
@rradahn Issehan mommy sunscreen is a Japanese sunscreen that is waterproof. I reviewed it on my channel and it has been my favorite from the past 5 years for my very sensitive skin. No fragrance, no alcohol and it's invisible.
code doesnt work! only gives 10% off and I have over $80 worth of stuff in cart
Some peeps here who had sunburns with Beauty of joseon spf 50, even putting some 3x a day and not going a lot in the sun?
Code is not working
Looking forward for your video on sunscreen sticks! :)
My og skin care guru.. 💙u
Hi Renee!!!! Have you tried the new Then I Met You Essence sunscreen? Dying to hear a review ❤
I have a real problem with sunscreen stinging my eyes and leaving me crying all day. Do any of these not do that?
That was an issue with me so I got into the habit of very gently blotting around my eyes with a tissue. 🙂
@@grespinosa I have taken to setting my SPF with powder around my eyes before moving on to makeup, but even that is not always foolproof, especially in the spring when my eyes are watery from allergies.
Since these sunscreens use different filters, how much do you apply for the stated protection? For US sunscreens, general rule is 1/4-1/3 teaspoon or 2-3 fingers for your face. Does this apply when using Korean sun filters?
Yes! It’s the same.
Sucks so much that my skin can't tolerate niacinamide 😢
The water fit sun serum from skin1004 leaves a slight cast on me as well as the beauty of joseon. But I wanna try the the spf from tocobo. 😊
Are Korean Sunscreen better than European Sunscreens?Can you recommend some European Sunscreen for your Skin type?
💙💙💙
YES YES YES
❤
