“I really love this SPF. It took me a while to get used to as it does take a while to absorb on my skin. I often just wear a dusting of translucent powder over the stop and I’m good to go.
My only issue with all of these products is the small amount of product in so much plastic packaging. If you could sell larger sizes in eco packaging this would be the dream!”
“Absolutely love this product. Applies really well and is reassuring that it's been dreamed up by a dermatologist. My only gripe is the pump container as I cant get to the dregs like I can with a cut tube.”
“For a long time, I have relied on my skincare to give me sun protection. Now I realise the importance of using a specific sunscreen product and this is so wonderful both to apply and once in place. It gives a Matt finish after allowing it to dry on which you can apply your make up.”
“I’ve been hunting for a high SPF with no tint for ages, so I’m really happy I came across Dr Sam in an article in The Times. It’s quite thick, but dried down well and my foundation went on well even when it was still tacky. My skin hasn’t reacted to it which is great, and it didn’t seem to affect my eyes, as many SPFs make my eyes water. I think I will be repurchasing, it might not be cheap, but it’s a lot cheaper than trying to correct sun damage in the future!”
“I bought this for my daughter who really struggles with acne. Tried a couple of different ones which broke her out so after researching, listening to outspoken beauty podcasts and reading reviews I decided to try this for her and it’s great. Been using it myself too as I have oily skin and want to start using retinol but know that comes with the need to use SPF daily (I know you should use one anyway but it’s one step I tend to miss out). So, my daughter is happy and she has red hair and very pale skin and hasn’t burnt or broke out and I’m happy that I’ve also not broke out so I would definitely recommend this product.”
“Am 48 with very oily and spot prone skin, open pores & tendency towards blackheads. My skin is easily irritated & sensitive, and all SPFs that I've used in the past are too harsh, greasy or drying. I like my skin to feel comforted at 48, so the oil free SPFs feel too dehydrating. Dr Sam's SPF is truly a game changer for me - at last an SPF that cossets and protects your skin. Easily applied, no dragging or white cast - perfect consistency; creamy and moisturising. My skin particularly likes niacinamide - I find it very calming and great for anti-redness. My greasy type skin doesn't need to follow up with a moisturiser. This would be my desert island skin care product.”
“Before incorporating this product into my routine, I was using shamefully little sunscreen. Initially I found it strange applying so much product, but once I got used to it I found this to be the perfect makeup base - on some days I find I don't even need moisturiser as the sunscreen feels so nourishing. Now I feel comfortable that I'm going out with the appropriate sun protection AND it looks great!”
“I’m such a big fan of all the products. This was my most recent purchase and I was not disappointed. It took me a while to get used to it. But a slight tweak to the routine left me more than satisfied and reassuring knowing I’m getting the protection that I need.”
