“The product itself offers everything I'm looking for in a sunscreen; Broad spectrum protection, excellent absorption and a beautiful (cosmetically elegant) finish on the skin.
My only gripe is the packaging - which doesn't allow for easy dispensing of the product. Seems like I have to pump for ages, before it dispenses anything at all - which leads to waste. Not ideal for such an expensive product. The product itself may just be a bit too viscous for this dispenser.
Otherwise I've found Dr Sam's line of products truly transformative and a very worthwhile investment.”
“I am using the untinted SPF50 for the face. I have very sensitive skin, so began using on the chest and then neck. Good points: nice texture and doubles as a moisturiser; doesn't stain the neckline of clothing, which some SPFs do; protection seems good; fragrance free. Minus points: when used on the face, seemed to cause a bit of redness reaction; possibly a little on the dear side. Overall, the price would have been acceptable if all was perfect, but I will try to continue the search for the perfect face SPF.”
“This SPF is the best I’ve used and I’ve trialled many. I have redness and acne and scarring and sensitive skin/eyes. I can apply this all over and if anything it helps calm my skin further instead of aggravating it including around my eyes. It is thick but once rubbed in properly it sits really nicely on my skin and under makeup. Would fully recommend”
“I had used the tinted version before and loved the consistency and ease of application. I have pale, sun sensitive skin and rosacea and had used the tinted version before and loved the consistency and ease of application as well as how it enhances my skin tone without needing a foundation on top. I bought the untinted to layer with the tinted version as I sometimes found the 6 pumps of tint too much on my skin.
At first I was unsure about the untinted version of the Flawless Gossamer as I experienced pilling on my skin. However after sometime I discovered that the pilling only happened when I used a certain serum or moisturiser. Now when I use a different product there is no pilling at all and it applies easily and flawlessly! I think I may even prefer it to the tinted version.”
“As a regular user of the sunscreen, I was really looking for the tinted gossamer but it was out of stock. I settled for the untainted this time and was delighted by the texture. And because it’s Dr Sam’s, I know it will do its job.
Only niggle is the pump on the tube which takes too long to get the product out.”
