“I absolutely love this product. It’s literally my single favourite skincare product and that’s saying a lot considering I use a lot of Dr Sam’s products. But… the dispenser is appalling. Some days it takes me several minutes to get anything out. Other days it comes out like a dream. It’s so incredibly frustrating that I won’t be buying it anymore because life is too short to suffer poor packaging. If this came in a normal tube or a pump like the Brightly / Nightly then I’d buy it again in a heartbeat.”
“Got my rosacea under control by following the advice in Dr Sam’s video on rebuilding the skin barrier. However, I’ve tried gradually introducing the recommended sunscreens twice now, the second time using Flawless Gossamer, but both times my skin has reacted badly and I’m back to square one. I’m also not as impressed with the formula of tinted Gossamer as I hoped. I don’t have oily skin to start with but this makes me look and feel super oily and takes forever to even slightly dry down. I can just about manage 3 pumps, without applying moisturiser first, but then adding a second layer is awful, even after waiting about an hour. I can’t wait to remove it at the end of the day. Even though I have light skin, tint 1 is too light for me, and if I’d wanted to try tint 2, it’s never in stock. I’m considering trying Flawless Daily Sunscreen instead to see if the niacinamide might help keep my skin calm but I’m just hoping it’s not as greasy and not too pale for me. Shame it’s not tinted too. The cost of trial and error is really adding up. A returns policy if the products aren’t suitable or cause breakouts would help. Some skincare companies do this.”
“I use this everyday and it’s comfortable and hydrating on acne prone skin. Although it’s lightweight, it has really good coverage and reduces all redness. Tint 1 is a perfect shade as it doesn’t make you orange and it helps to have some colour in comparison to Flawless Daily Sunscreen (I had used up until trying Gossamer). It’s a brilliant product, however the pump broke after minimal usage like many other reviews have said which defeats the 6 pump rule.”
“At 58, I’ve recently developed Rosacea with spots on my check and my usual sunscreen started to breakouts stinging. After much research I decided to give Dr Sams Flawless gossamer a try. After 2 weeks of daily use my skin feels much more comfortable and fewer breakouts - this is Best sunscreen for sensitive / Rosacea prone skin and I will definitely be ordering some more, although a bit more expensive than my previous brand. I have both the untinted and the tinted, my only slight niggle is that the tint 01 is a little bit too little for my skin tone, and the tint 02 is not in stock, but neither leave a white cast so this isn’t a big problem. Thank you Dr Sam, I am a convert….”
“I switch to this in the warmer weather as I like how light it feels on my skin.
Skin feels comfortable and I layer it with Flawless Gossamer
I like the no frills packaging and I trust Dr Sam”
“I am super happy about the tinted Gossamer SPF. It does glide beautifully on my skin , is non shiny but gives a lovely glow. I would like to order the darker tint but it has been unavailable on the website for a long time now ! Also would welcome a bigger size SPF , for the body”
“This is excellent on skin prone to rosacea. The tint helps hide and calm the redness. Very easy to reapply without a mirror. Has definitely stopped my rosacea flaring in the sunshine.”
