Hi everyone! Normally a sun dodger, I was outside from 9-5 yesterday doing gardening & yard work. I wore & constantly reapplied broad spectrum 50+ sunscreens, also foundation. I wore covered clothing, hat, sunglasses & gardening gloves. I used my huge wheelie bin as a source of shade. It was a sunny spring day. I am pleased to announce that my skin shows no sign of being in the sun at all! l and the garden looks so much better. I lost a few kilograms too! I used rhe Cancer Council sunscreen on my face and just an Aldi one on my neck & ears. I also used it on my body before I put on my long sleeved, high neck top. I wore jeans & Ugg boots, so my legs & feet didn't need sunscreen. I wear sunscreen 365 days of the year. I have pale skin & green eyes, btw. No mosquitoes so far thank goodness! I have my hydrocolloid patches ready though 👱🏻♀️❤️
TBH, I haven't found any sunscreen including mineral sunscreen that doesn't sting my eyes a little. Some more than others, but I still feel the sting. I also am discovering that I don't care for the tinted sunscreens for daily use. If I were going to apply some makeup, which for me is rarer than seeing a lunar eclipse, then I would probably use the tinted sunscreen as my foundation. But otherwise, I prefer no tint. Have any of you sensitive eyed ladies out there found your "perfect" sunscreen that doesn't sting your eyes? Recommends appreciated!😊
@@notapplicable9970 Try applying a fragrance free SPF 50+ lip balm around your eyes instead as it doesn't run like options & creams. I hope this helps. Btw, I used the Cancer Council (Dewy Finish) without any stinging, but with a primer, and an SPF foundation & concealer on top. 👱🏻♀️❤️
@@db-gb5xi Hi db, I'm great thank you. I really hope you are too. I still watch Dr Dray everyday and read all/most of the comments, but haven't been commenting lately. I used to watch, reply & comment in real-time at 2am (Australian time) most days. Apart from not being good for my beauty sleep, now the light from my phone awakes my partner. However, last night I tried having my phone on low light, but was then horrified to see my typos in the morning! 👱🏻♀️❤️
@missmayflower it's not necessarily for indoors but for the drive before and after the gym, and my gym has quite a bit of natural light, so it doesn't hurt to be protected 😉
The Isntree watery sun gel leaves my face so shiny; way more than any of the dozens of sunscreens that I've tested. Strange, to me, how different everyone else's experience is with it!
I agree! It's definitely the shiniest one I've tried, on me anyway. Then the Beauty of Joseon relief sun just looks dewy on me, (not greasy by any means, just a little glowy.) and I've had people tell me that it's super greasy on them, and that the isntree one just looks natural. It's crazy how everyone's skin is different
@@Melon29813 The relief sun is the same for me; just a little dewy. Another strange thing is that the Tinosorb M (which is in a lot of Korean sunscreens) leaves me with a noticeable white cast effect on my already pale skin. Most people's reviews say it's invisible on their skin. A lot of trial and error!
I love the dermatology tinted spf, and have found that signing up for their specials on their website allows me to save $$. They have 20% and 30% off specials and is worth buying a few when they do this. I actually do this with all the skincare companies I shop with. You don’t have to buy full price if you wait and stock up.
I love the kroger unseen sunscreen dupe. It's reasonably priced, doesn't leave a cast and doesn't make me shiny. So far it's my favorite matte sunscreen. One drawback is it does pill if you aren't careful with what you put on under it. 😊
Thanks Dr Dray, I have tried so many of your sunscreen recommendations and they never disappoint!! Thanks for all your hard work, have just ordered the Dermatology now too ♥️♥️
SKIN1004 Hyalu-CICA Water-fit Sun Serum has been my favorite sunscreen for my face this summer. I just opened my third bottle/tube of it. For my body I have been using Supergoop Play sunscreen. I have repurchased that in the past but am thinking of giving another brand a try. ☀️
If you have thick skin (men), the Isntree sunscreen will leave your skin very shiny because much of it won’t penetrate your skin barrier. This is also the case with the Ginseng Beauty of Joseon sunscreen, very shiny finish. I’ve tried both and ended up only using them on the days I stayed at home indoors.
I am loving Madagascar Centella Water Fit and Beauty of Joseon. It seems ridiculous that Target doesn’t carry the up and up lip balm in the store. But I ordered it recently and truly love it. I also use the aquaphor lip repair with sunscreen.
Just started using AmLactin for KP and sebaceous filaments. Works like a flippin' charm! I'd love a video on junctional complexes and the physiology of structural stability! ❤
I love that stuff! It doesn’t work quite as well for me for that specific issue, but I love it for breakouts, under arm and testes stank, and foot health!
I have a question/idea for a potential future short/video: when blemishes go away, where do they go? If we don’t squeeze a zit and it goes away on its own, is it absorbed back into the body? If blackheads are disappearing with the assistance of BHA without being excised, are they sloughing off microscopically a bit at a time!? And so on and so forth.
I have been using the Banana Boat for face and its wonderful for the face. No burning of my eyes and no white cast. Great for my sisters and brothers of color. I love it!
I would like to know if you apply the sunscreen around your eyes doesn't burn or sting cuz I want to try it but I'm scare of the sting or burning. Plis let me know.
Happy Monday. I enjoy your sunscreen reviews since I not only wear them for protection; I also wear them daily instead of foundation. So I am always looking for good coverage that is light and comfortable. Thank you!
I would love love love if you could do an episode on sunscreens that include ones with Blue Light protection. Many of us deal with hyperpigmentation and are told by dermatologists that we must choose sunscreens with Blue Light/Visible Light protection. Obviously, tinted sunscreens are one type of sunscreen that can help. There are other sunscreens, mainly of European Origin, perhaps even Australian, with filters that protect against visible light. Many of us now buy sunscreen online anyway because we cannot find the ones we need at home. Buying those sunscreens now is a lot easier than it used to be if you know reputable websites.
I absolutely love the Kroger Shimmer Sunscreen!! I am 68 years old and it makes my neck look so smooth. I love it on the face too, but I can't get it close to my eyes because my eyes always are reddened if I do so. I use the R&R Undefined because it looks best under makeup for me. But I will keep purchasing the Kroger for my neck and chest. I do use it on my face too and it looks very good, I just have to keep it away from my eyes. It's really nice. Feels good too 👍
I use a technique to prevent my sunscreen from stinging my eyes. After serum, I dab a tiny bit of Vaseline at outer and inner corner of my eyes. Like you do at night before applying retin-a. Then I smear on my sunscreen. It works. Of course, with Korean sunscreens, I never have a problem at all. But when I use my La Roche Posay, it can.
Dr drayyyy. My only HG is sunscreen lol. Paulas choice resist in royal blue w spf 50! No more poressss. Ive never seen u talk about that one, only light blue tint
Ultrasun Professional Protection water resistant. Kids Sunscreen Gel SPF50+ i ❤ that sunscreen love love love ultrasun 😊 and the next is going to be the sports one ❤. I simply enjoy your empties especially sunscreen and sunscreen in general.
I love isntree’s collab with Cassandra Bankson- onion newpair 40+ PA. It’s cosmetically beautiful and also acts as a primer for makeup. I can’t use it near my eyes however. I still use LRP for sensitive eyes 50+ and have done for years. When I was in France recently I stocked up at an amazing Parisian pharmacy. 2 for the price of one and even with exchange rate to AUD (Aussie dollars) it was great value. On my body I use our Cancer Council’s kids sunscreen and probably always will. It’s superb.
Elf released a sunscreen that is a dupe for the Unseen Sunscreen by Supergoop. It’s not only a dupe, 3 times cheaper, but it’s 100% better !!!! I’ve finally found a holy grail ❤
I found the Eucerin discounted at my Target and tried it and really love it for my body. I just can use so very few chemical sunscreens on my face because most irritate my eyes - but weirdly enough, the Kroger "glowscreen" dupe does not and i've been using it all summer.
I didn't like the Kroger Shimmer Sunscreen at first and gave it away - but I really missed the healthy sheen it gave my skin so bought another one. I have no issues as long as I layer it over another sunscreen and blot to remove the excess shine. 👍 😎
I absolutely love Trader Joe’s sunscreen. Don’t get to a Trader Joe’s very often, so last weekend I stocked up with four bottles. They don’t expire until July 2025,. So I’m good until my next trip! Only $8.99.
Hi Dr Dray Ultrasun is my spf of choice all year round - 50+ in the Summer and 30 in the colder months. It doesn't upset my rosacea and eczema prone skin, plus I've used it for over a decade and trust the protection it gives my Scottish Fitzpatrick one skin. I tried many of the much hyped spf's on youtube and had many a fail, so back to ultrasun I went and have had no issues. Best wishes.
Love this video but can I suggest you turn down your ring light a bit? The reflection makes it hard to read the bottles you hold up and your face is a bit overbrightened. Again, thanks for your work on here!
I have been using the K Secret Collagen Boosting Secret Sun Lotion SPF 50 and this is the first sunscreen I have used and repurchased! It has hydrolyzed collagen, hyaluronic acid, Vitamin-A, adenosine and niacinamide and no matter what I do with my skin before I use this it never ever pills up and it feels like I'm using the most expensive skin-care. I have Lupus and I have tried so many different sunscreens and I always had one problem or another but this one is just awesome I cannot recommend it enough!!
For other ultra frugal types: i used the dollar tree sun basics chemical sunscreen daily since june and i am extremely happy with it. Dr Dray hasnt tried it but checked the inkey & said 👍. The formula does well for face & chest, as well as body, it's quite light so i use a Gold Bond cream over it, but i have extremely dry skin so i never wear just 1 lotion. I've always reapplied when outdoors all day, but with spf setting sprays or day lotion w spf, which arent the bestest methods, and still had excellent protection. No sunburns, no new spots. I also use alpha arbutin and vit c, but as a basic sunscreen, these sun basics' options are great. All appear to be same formula, other than 30 vs 50. Sport and baby have same inkey as regular. I bought enough to last til next may with a few to share at outdoor events (for work). The only time i had eye stinging was when the fire smoke in air was at its peak and eyes get very sensitive. I keep a mineral option on hand for those times or when i want a more matte finish specifically, but 99% of the time, i use these! They are 3 oz which is decent for a face sunscreen, they last me 30 days in summer, but will last longer as i stop needing to cover my arms and shoulders. I use heavy application of spray spf elsewhere, gotta use it up lol!
Good to know that the Sun Basics is a good option. I impulse bought the SPF 50 Kids version from my local Dollar Tree but was hesitant to use it because I figured it might not have good UVA coverage (I have a dark skin tone but also use Vit C). Will start using it.
Why use gold bond on top? You’re wiping away the spf? Do you mean you Use the gold bond underneath and spf on top. Also how’s the cast on them? I think the issue is they contain fragrance no?
I loved the feel.of.the Verdio but it irritated my face and neck. But works well on my body. But I was so sad. I think it has Octocyrlene which seems to be an issue for me but I'm not 100% sure that's it!
The Neutrogena Invisible Daily Defense Face Serum sunscreen is great, thanks! I also like the lotion from the same line, but nobody ever mentions it! I'm on my 3rd tube -- very moisturizing, 80 minutes water resistant, 60+ as well. Good stuff! (Maybe the ingredient lists are similar? Hard to read, tiny white print on a pale pink background)
Enjoyed this. I always love to see what sunscreens you're using. I have the Banana Boat sunscreen and like it. Happy Monday, Dr Dray! I hope you have a tranquil evening. 💖
I am very new to skincare and hate to say this, but have neglected my skin for years. Getting older, started looking at skin care recently and came across this channel. It blows my mind how much I could have done for myself over the years, but didn’t. I have a very mild case of rosacea and have been using CeraVe a.m. for a while. I wasn’t using it for sunscreen per se, just for moisturizer in the morning. I don’t think I gave it much thought when I picked it. They had an a.m. version and a p.m. version at the store, which seemed easy enough, so I bought both. The a.m. one does sting for a bit and my rosacea is not improving nor getting worse with it. I have no reaction to p.m. one. I think I just accepted the stinging as something related to my skin that I have to deal with. I am now wondering if I should try a different moisturizer/sunscreen. Any recommendations for rosacea skin?
Look up the Oat Gel Moisturizer from Aveeno, or their Calm & Restore, or their Redness Relief products or just their oat Gel products in general. You'll find the dermatologists on TH-cam love them for a reason. Soft, easy on the skin and calm my own rosacea. The sunscreen I use is the tinted Flex Sunscreen from Color Science for my face, and the Bondi Sands sunscreen for my body. It's been my final/holy grail routine for a long time now.
Thank you for providing such a detailed list of all the sunscreens. I'm going to check some of them out! I hope you have a wonderful day❤ P.s. I use those flower hair clips that you recommended from Amazon every day! And I always think of you😊
I have used sunscreens from Dollar Tree all summer and I kinda can't believe how incredibly good they are. Max Block Kids SPF 50 was my first one but I soon discovered Sun Basics Kids SPF 50. It is so good!!! It's water resistant and it sinks into the skin instantly with zero greasiness. It also does not sting the eyes. I would say it's one of the best sunscreens I've ever used and that includes comparisons to European and Australian sunscreens I used to buy. I started to try the Kroger sunscreen you mentioned but I really have no need to try any other, especially since the Max Block and Sun Basics are $1.25 a tube.
The up and up lip spf was a total fail for me. Made my lips tingle and burn instantly. I gave the second tube to my sister who never reacts to anything and she said the same thing. My favorite lip spf are sun bum mineral in the black tube for running and Nivea or hada labo tinted spfs. I always throw one or two on my yesstyle orders.
Always love these videos where you have all your all-time favorite sunscreens in one lineup! My all-time faves right now are (not presented in any order): DRMTLGY Universal Tint; Australian Gold Tinted Face sunscreen (I have oily skin, so I love the mattifying effect); ISDN tinted sunscreen; Hada Labo UV Perfect Gel (still the only one I can ALWAYS use around the eyes); Bondi Sands sunscreen (love both the Face and Body ones; I take the Face with me when I travel and use it on the body as well; it's oily, but otherwise amazing); Eucerin Body Cream SPF 30 (which I wear first thing in the morning, under clothes, fall-to-early spring), Sun Bum lip mineral sunscreen (which I use both on the lips and around the eyes), Sun Bum tinted sunscreen (which I use in lieu of lipstick), and Cerave Ultra-Light Moisturizing Lotion (which I wear mostly in winter when I'm not leaving the house). I also quite like the SKIN1004 Madagascar Centella sun serum, the Isntree Hyaluronic Watery Sun Gel, and the Neutrogena Invisible Daily (tinted; though I'd like it better if it didn't sting the eyes).
I love the Verdio sunscreen. I used it for my body mostly but sometimes on my face if i was dry. It feels so nice and I have rosacea so a lot of sunscreens irritate my skin but this one did not burn anywhere on my face.
@@laurajean7913 la roche posay melt in milk. It didn’t irritate my skin and I was surprised because most chemical sunscreens made me flare up. Before that I was using baby bum mineral sunscreen
I have been loving beauty of joseon matte mugwort sunstick. The matte finish is very nice visually to me. It can be drying but I just apply a bit of moisturizer before and it's fine. The green tint it has also helps cover the slight redness on my face which I also love. Apieu aqua sun gel was also pretty good despite the fragrance. I did not like the tocobo hyalyronic acid gel sunscreen and round lab birch juice sunscreen as much as I thought I would, especially the round lab birch juice one. I am dry but it still felt rather heavy me on me and it really wasn't sweat resistant so it wasn't ideal for me even if I was not going exercising.
That first one sounds like something my teenage boys should try. I loved the kroger one until I found using it every day I started to have some type of rection to it. Which stinks cause I really liked it! And love the drmtlgy too but right now it is too dark for me - unless I use sunless tanner on my neck.
The new Kosas might be in my top 3 favorites. The color matches me perfectly! I find the color from a lot of other tinted sunscreens are just off. Initially I thought it was going ti be too greasy, but once it settles it feels and looks great. Covers enough of my redness to be like a foundation and just evens me out. You have to try it.
Very good video Dr Dray! Could I ask you to do a video on localised scleroderma? I've had this condition since I was a child, and I'd like to know more about it. I went to a dermatologist recently, and was told that I can expect signs of aging to appear earlier in me due to the fact that I overproduce a type of collagen that competes with the "good one". Is this true, or is the doctor just trying to sell me treatments? If you can, thumbs up this comment so that Dr Dray sees it :) !
Me too! My girlfriend also has this condition, it would be great to have a video to learn more about any tips from you. Any products you recommend as gifts?
I liked the Neutrogena Invisible serum made my eyes burn but I haven't had any issues with the Kroger Shimmer sunscreen. I do like the glow it provided and my skin feels so soft. I almost bought the Elf version but saw the Kroger version and was sold when it was almost twice the size for less. I just started using Retin-A so I needed a good SPF.
For people with darker skin the eucerin spf does leave a white cast! I'm not sure why because it's a chemical sunscreen but it leaves a white cast!!! Maybe because there's no alcohol to help dissolve the filters properly?! I'm not sure but it's there
I enjoyed watching this! Man I need to get better about sunscreen. It’s hard though with eczema when you already feel slathered in thick lotion and Vaseline from top to bottom
Can you do a video of sunscreen recommendations for teenagers. Since teens don’t typically like the feeling of wearing sunscreen I’d love to see a video on lightweight affordable sunscreens for teenagers. Some tinted ones and light weight affordable sunscreens.
I love the Banana Boat face product and loved it. Only wish it came in a larger size. I’m I know in the minority as I’m soooi disappointed in the DRMTLGY universal tint. It totally burned my eyes so it’s unwearable and a waste for me. The untinted version also burned my eyes so I’m using it up on my body.
I love the cetaphil moisturizing sunscreen 50. I use it as my moisturizer and it always keeps my skin soft. I don’t think it’s water resistant however, if that it’s an important factor. I’ve tried the cetaphil 30 spf and ironically it pills terribly on me.
Greetings Dr Dray hope u r well n 🖐Hello Every1 n Happy Monday😀n what a Wonderful Vid…. thanks n This is Gonna b so Good cause Sunscreen Rocks🔥👍n Continued Blessings to All💜….
I can't get enough of that Banana Boat vitamins sunscreen. It smells so good and citrusy, doesn't leave a white cast, and doesn't burn around the eyes. Very affordable. A perfect sunscreen.

Happy Monday Dr Dray…see you tomorrow x💙🤩
Good morning Dr Dray. YAY for empties!!❤
Morning!
I love isntree’s collab with Cassandra Bankson- onion newpair 40+ PA. It’s cosmetically beautiful and also acts as a primer for makeup. I can’t use it near my eyes however. I still use LRP for sensitive eyes 50+ and have done for years. When I was in France recently I stocked up at an amazing Parisian pharmacy. 2 for the price of one and even with exchange rate to AUD (Aussie dollars) it was great value. On my body I use our Cancer Council’s kids sunscreen and probably always will. It’s superb.
Elf released a sunscreen that is a dupe for the Unseen Sunscreen by Supergoop. It’s not only a dupe, 3 times cheaper, but it’s 100% better !!!! I’ve finally found a holy grail ❤
Tube is tiny though isn’t it?
@@sagebeauty normal size, 1,7 oz. 14 dollars and awesome. Also as a primer.
@@monikawatkins8525that’s tiny
I found the Eucerin discounted at my Target and tried it and really love it for my body. I just can use so very few chemical sunscreens on my face because most irritate my eyes - but weirdly enough, the Kroger "glowscreen" dupe does not and i've been using it all summer.
I didn't like the Kroger Shimmer Sunscreen at first and gave it away - but I really missed the healthy sheen it gave my skin so bought another one. I have no issues as long as I layer it over another sunscreen and blot to remove the excess shine. 👍 😎
I absolutely love Trader Joe’s sunscreen. Don’t get to a Trader Joe’s very often, so last weekend I stocked up with four bottles. They don’t expire until July 2025,. So I’m good until my next trip! Only $8.99.
Hi Dr Dray Ultrasun is my spf of choice all year round - 50+ in the Summer and 30 in the colder months. It doesn't upset my rosacea and eczema prone skin, plus I've used it for over a decade and trust the protection it gives my Scottish Fitzpatrick one skin. I tried many of the much hyped spf's on youtube and had many a fail, so back to ultrasun I went and have had no issues. Best wishes.
Love this video but can I suggest you turn down your ring light a bit? The reflection makes it hard to read the bottles you hold up and your face is a bit overbrightened. Again, thanks for your work on here!
I have been using the K Secret Collagen Boosting Secret Sun Lotion SPF 50 and this is the first sunscreen I have used and repurchased! It has hydrolyzed collagen, hyaluronic acid, Vitamin-A, adenosine and niacinamide and no matter what I do with my skin before I use this it never ever pills up and it feels like I'm using the most expensive skin-care. I have Lupus and I have tried so many different sunscreens and I always had one problem or another but this one is just awesome I cannot recommend it enough!!
Hi Dr Dray so excited to be here I live for this ❤️
Greetings David Shabas hope u r well n Happy Monday😀👍💜….
@@whitneybrown4067happy Monday Whitney 👍
Morning!

For other ultra frugal types: i used the dollar tree sun basics chemical sunscreen daily since june and i am extremely happy with it. Dr Dray hasnt tried it but checked the inkey & said 👍. The formula does well for face & chest, as well as body, it's quite light so i use a Gold Bond cream over it, but i have extremely dry skin so i never wear just 1 lotion. I've always reapplied when outdoors all day, but with spf setting sprays or day lotion w spf, which arent the bestest methods, and still had excellent protection. No sunburns, no new spots. I also use alpha arbutin and vit c, but as a basic sunscreen, these sun basics' options are great. All appear to be same formula, other than 30 vs 50. Sport and baby have same inkey as regular. I bought enough to last til next may with a few to share at outdoor events (for work). The only time i had eye stinging was when the fire smoke in air was at its peak and eyes get very sensitive. I keep a mineral option on hand for those times or when i want a more matte finish specifically, but 99% of the time, i use these! They are 3 oz which is decent for a face sunscreen, they last me 30 days in summer, but will last longer as i stop needing to cover my arms and shoulders. I use heavy application of spray spf elsewhere, gotta use it up lol!
Good to know that the Sun Basics is a good option. I impulse bought the SPF 50 Kids version from my local Dollar Tree but was hesitant to use it because I figured it might not have good UVA coverage (I have a dark skin tone but also use Vit C). Will start using it.
Why use gold bond on top? You’re wiping away the spf? Do you mean you
Use the gold bond underneath and spf on top.
Also how’s the cast on them? I think the issue is they contain fragrance no?
Hi, Dr. Dray, may I ask what’s the mechanism of action of the Japanese and Korean sunscreens? Physical or chemical? Thank you!
I love the Neutrogena Daily Defense. Works great under makeup and doesn't make me break out. I'm 50+ with mostly oily skin.
Get the "sunslayer sunscreen", it has no chemicals and it has been amazing for my skin.
I loved the feel.of.the Verdio but it irritated my face and neck. But works well on my body. But I was so sad. I think it has Octocyrlene which seems to be an issue for me but I'm not 100% sure that's it!
Cannot be w/o the DRMTTLGY! holy grail ❤
I got the banana boat, the Mexican version. It lasts 4 hours. It's very nice.
The Neutrogena Invisible Daily Defense Face Serum sunscreen is great, thanks! I also like the lotion from the same line, but nobody ever mentions it! I'm on my 3rd tube -- very moisturizing, 80 minutes water resistant, 60+ as well. Good stuff! (Maybe the ingredient lists are similar? Hard to read, tiny white print on a pale pink background)
Would love your review on Dr V inzincable SPF 50 mineral sunscreen!
Enjoyed this. I always love to see what sunscreens you're using. I have the Banana Boat sunscreen and like it. Happy Monday, Dr Dray! I hope you have a tranquil evening. 💖
Your hair looks so healthy & shiny and is growing long. Just gorgeous
I am very new to skincare and hate to say this, but have neglected my skin for years. Getting older, started looking at skin care recently and came across this channel. It blows my mind how much I could have done for myself over the years, but didn’t. I have a very mild case of rosacea and have been using CeraVe a.m. for a while. I wasn’t using it for sunscreen per se, just for moisturizer in the morning. I don’t think I gave it much thought when I picked it. They had an a.m. version and a p.m. version at the store, which seemed easy enough, so I bought both. The a.m. one does sting for a bit and my rosacea is not improving nor getting worse with it. I have no reaction to p.m. one. I think I just accepted the stinging as something related to my skin that I have to deal with. I am now wondering if I should try a different moisturizer/sunscreen. Any recommendations for rosacea skin?
Look up the Oat Gel Moisturizer from Aveeno, or their Calm & Restore, or their Redness Relief products or just their oat Gel products in general. You'll find the dermatologists on TH-cam love them for a reason. Soft, easy on the skin and calm my own rosacea. The sunscreen I use is the tinted Flex Sunscreen from Color Science for my face, and the Bondi Sands sunscreen for my body. It's been my final/holy grail routine for a long time now.
@@theres-a-hurrikane thank you - I will!
@@theres-a-hurrikane what do you mean when you say soft?
@@alonabeck713Prosacea has high reviews on Walgreens website for rosacea. She also has several videos on rosacea
Btw your skin looks beautiful in your pic! ❤
I use the DRMTLGY but it does make my face feel dry! TFS! 🥰
Ugh. Which are mineral which are chemical spf? Some of us are allergic/photosensitive to chemical sunscreens.
Thank you for providing such a detailed list of all the sunscreens. I'm going to check some of them out! I hope you have a wonderful day❤
P.s. I use those flower hair clips that you recommended from Amazon every day! And I always think of you😊
I kept a few of the flower clips and gave the others as gifts to my nieces and friends. Everyone LOVES them
I have used sunscreens from Dollar Tree all summer and I kinda can't believe how incredibly good they are. Max Block Kids SPF 50 was my first one but I soon discovered Sun Basics Kids SPF 50. It is so good!!! It's water resistant and it sinks into the skin instantly with zero greasiness. It also does not sting the eyes. I would say it's one of the best sunscreens I've ever used and that includes comparisons to European and Australian sunscreens I used to buy. I started to try the Kroger sunscreen you mentioned but I really have no need to try any other, especially since the Max Block and Sun Basics are $1.25 a tube.
Dr Dray any thoughts on DT sunscreens? I wonder if these sunscreens provide adequate uva protection?
@@peggym1621she’s reviewed some over the summer. There is no way in America to determine uva on any sunscreen.
Doesn’t it have fragrance though? And is it truly cheaper per oz?
Hi Dr. Dray you look so beautiful today also your hair is gorgeous!
YOOOOOO LFG BEEN WAITING FOR THIS, G’morning Dr. Dray!!
The up and up lip spf was a total fail for me. Made my lips tingle and burn instantly. I gave the second tube to my sister who never reacts to anything and she said the same thing. My favorite lip spf are sun bum mineral in the black tube for running and Nivea or hada labo tinted spfs. I always throw one or two on my yesstyle orders.
Always love these videos where you have all your all-time favorite sunscreens in one lineup! My all-time faves right now are (not presented in any order): DRMTLGY Universal Tint; Australian Gold Tinted Face sunscreen (I have oily skin, so I love the mattifying effect); ISDN tinted sunscreen; Hada Labo UV Perfect Gel (still the only one I can ALWAYS use around the eyes); Bondi Sands sunscreen (love both the Face and Body ones; I take the Face with me when I travel and use it on the body as well; it's oily, but otherwise amazing); Eucerin Body Cream SPF 30 (which I wear first thing in the morning, under clothes, fall-to-early spring), Sun Bum lip mineral sunscreen (which I use both on the lips and around the eyes), Sun Bum tinted sunscreen (which I use in lieu of lipstick), and Cerave Ultra-Light Moisturizing Lotion (which I wear mostly in winter when I'm not leaving the house). I also quite like the SKIN1004 Madagascar Centella sun serum, the Isntree Hyaluronic Watery Sun Gel, and the Neutrogena Invisible Daily (tinted; though I'd like it better if it didn't sting the eyes).
I just discovered Necessaire For Face and Body Broad spectrum sunscreen Spf 30 and really like it. Thank you for your reviews Dr. Dray.
Omg dr dray! Your sound like a pro podcast. I love it! ❤
I love the Verdio sunscreen. I used it for my body mostly but sometimes on my face if i was dry. It feels so nice and I have rosacea so a lot of sunscreens irritate my skin but this one did not burn anywhere on my face.
What’s your ho to sunscreen for your face??
@@laurajean7913 la roche posay melt in milk. It didn’t irritate my skin and I was surprised because most chemical sunscreens made me flare up. Before that I was using baby bum mineral sunscreen
I have been loving beauty of joseon matte mugwort sunstick. The matte finish is very nice visually to me. It can be drying but I just apply a bit of moisturizer before and it's fine. The green tint it has also helps cover the slight redness on my face which I also love. Apieu aqua sun gel was also pretty good despite the fragrance.
I did not like the tocobo hyalyronic acid gel sunscreen and round lab birch juice sunscreen as much as I thought I would, especially the round lab birch juice one. I am dry but it still felt rather heavy me on me and it really wasn't sweat resistant so it wasn't ideal for me even if I was not going exercising.
That first one sounds like something my teenage boys should try. I loved the kroger one until I found using it every day I started to have some type of rection to it. Which stinks cause I really liked it! And love the drmtlgy too but right now it is too dark for me - unless I use sunless tanner on my neck.
The new Kosas might be in my top 3 favorites. The color matches me perfectly! I find the color from a lot of other tinted sunscreens are just off. Initially I thought it was going ti be too greasy, but once it settles it feels and looks great. Covers enough of my redness to be like a foundation and just evens me out. You have to try it.
The up and up lip balm makes my lips tingle for some reason
Very good video Dr Dray!
Could I ask you to do a video on localised scleroderma? I've had this condition since I was a child, and I'd like to know more about it.
I went to a dermatologist recently, and was told that I can expect signs of aging to appear earlier in me due to the fact that I overproduce a type of collagen that competes with the "good one". Is this true, or is the doctor just trying to sell me treatments?
If you can, thumbs up this comment so that Dr Dray sees it :) !
Me too! My girlfriend also has this condition, it would be great to have a video to learn more about any tips from you. Any products you recommend as gifts?
Love the isntree. And Colorescience
I have a severe sensitivity to avobenzone and zinc oxide, which rules out most every sunscreen…the struggle is real.
@@mountainstream8351 Very itchy, raw, sore, red/purple coloured rash. Do you have the same sensitivities?
Yep, I can’t use any with zinc either
I liked the Neutrogena Invisible serum made my eyes burn but I haven't had any issues with the Kroger Shimmer sunscreen. I do like the glow it provided and my skin feels so soft. I almost bought the Elf version but saw the Kroger version and was sold when it was almost twice the size for less. I just started using Retin-A so I needed a good SPF.
I wish Drmtlgy made a lighter tint … it’s too dark for me … love the Kroger glow screen… my favorite has been P calm water barrier 🤍🤍🤍
For people with darker skin the eucerin spf does leave a white cast! I'm not sure why because it's a chemical sunscreen but it leaves a white cast!!! Maybe because there's no alcohol to help dissolve the filters properly?! I'm not sure but it's there
I enjoyed watching this! Man I need to get better about sunscreen. It’s hard though with eczema when you already feel slathered in thick lotion and Vaseline from top to bottom
Can you do a video of sunscreen recommendations for teenagers. Since teens don’t typically like the feeling of wearing sunscreen I’d love to see a video on lightweight affordable sunscreens for teenagers. Some tinted ones and light weight affordable sunscreens.
I love the Banana Boat face product and loved it. Only wish it came in a larger size. I’m I know in the minority as I’m soooi disappointed in the DRMTLGY universal tint. It totally burned my eyes so it’s unwearable and a waste for me. The untinted version also burned my eyes so I’m using it up on my body.
❤ Banana Boat for the Face. Also Black Girl Sunscreen for kids.
I love the cetaphil moisturizing sunscreen 50. I use it as my moisturizer and it always keeps my skin soft. I don’t think it’s water resistant however, if that it’s an important factor. I’ve tried the cetaphil 30 spf and ironically it pills terribly on me.
Took your advice and bought on sale at Walmart the Dove Derm Care shampoo and conditioner as per your review precious to this.
Greetings Dr Dray hope u r well n 🖐Hello Every1 n Happy Monday😀n what a Wonderful Vid…. thanks n This is Gonna b so Good cause Sunscreen Rocks🔥👍n Continued Blessings to All💜….

Greetings d b hope u r well n Happy Monday😀👍💜….
I can't get enough of that Banana Boat vitamins sunscreen. It smells so good and citrusy, doesn't leave a white cast, and doesn't burn around the eyes. Very affordable. A perfect sunscreen.
So tiny though
@@21972012145525 i dunno about tiny but it would be nice if it were in a larger size.
As always...thank you for taking the "hit" for the team, We really appreciate it!
I use tinted Raw Elements spf 30 moisturizer or Eucerine daily moisturizer spf 30 or Bondi Sands spf 50
95° heat will have you miss a whole day. 💜💜💜
it is hot, lol
Im in florida and barely seen summer at all lol
You seriously think 95 degrees is hot?! Lame
Global warming is real.
@@phillyjillyhow? I’m in mn. We definitely had summer this year!
Happy Monday!
Happy Monday, Doc! 😃
Same to you!
I use the Eucerine on my face and it works nicely. Thank you for talking about it ❤ Have a nice day Dr. Dray
I TRIED to love the Neutrogena Invisible Daily SPF 60, but no matter how careful I was, it always migrated into my eyes and burned for HOURS.
Dr. Gray. Thank you for all your recommendations ❤❤❤
I love the Trader Joe's Daily Facial Sunscreen.
It's so good!
You have really pretty hair colour
Eucerin sunscreen is so good. I use this for face . I should use it all over body .
Hi Dr. DRAY. I have been using the Olay sunscreen you have recommended in the past. I like it. Thank you for all the great info.
