Dermatologist Sunscreen SPF 50 – Superior 5-star UVA protection by Dr Andrew Birnie, suitable for sensitive skin - 2 Count ( Pack of 1)

This is my second time purchasing the normal SPF 50 because it’s such a great daily product that is affordable, looks great under my daily makeup, and is super moisturising too. I’ve had no issues with white cast when using this product, as a person with a light brown skin colour, and I haven’t find it to be too oily, which is something I usually hate about most sunscreens. I’ve also managed to get my mother and sister, both of whom suffer with dry skin, to absolutely love this product as they find it non-irritable, moisturising, and effective for preventing sun burn.

I don’t usually write reviews but this product has left me so happy I feel obligated to share! I use a retinol, so SPF during the day is very important to protect my skin (and I would argue, is important for everyone to use) but they problem I kept having was I could not find a brand that didn’t break me out. I’ve been using this a couple of weeks now and it is AMAZING. A little goes a long way, it’s light, leaves a nice dewy finish on the skin and above all PROTECTS YOUR FACE AGAINST UV. It hasn’t caused any irritation on me, or broke me out so I am super pleased. I will continue to repurchase!

Excellent suncream. It protects really well. Doesn’t stain clothes. Easy to use out and about as it doesn’t fell greasy. But bro sure of how efficient is when used in water, I get the feeling it washes off quickly.

I have bought this product 3 times over the last 5 years or so for beach holidays. And over the years it has been improved in every level. The packaging is much better than it used to be and the actual sunscreen now has the perfect consistency. Its not very thick which makes it easy to spread. It doesn't have a strong fragrance (if at all) and doesn't leave a shine or makes you look greasy. But more importantly it is very fairly priced which admirable especially for a relatively small company. Also they give a portion of profits to charity from every sale (which might be a drop in a bucket) but hey at least they are helping while giant companies don't usually do that. Last but not least it ticks all the boxes that one would want from a sunscreen: Great packaging, great product, great price and it is SPF 50 and water resistant and has a 5 star UVA rating which I have not seen on Amazon. I have found 4 star ratings but not 5. My advice to you is that if you do like it that you use a generous amount as one should when it comes to sunscreen. Sunscreens are not cosmetic creams. You need to apply generously. And the price of this product allows you to do that more easily.

My post-menopausal skin went ultra-sensitive and I’ve had to stop using a lot of products I previously used for years. This sunscreen is brilliant - it does not irritate my skin at all, keeps my skin supple and sits nicely under my make-up. I use this as a daily moisturiser over a serum every morning. Can’t recommend highly enough.

Initially the other reviews put me off but my Rosacea was so bad that I thought It was worth a try. Firstly the cream is green (it IS NOTa “brown sludge). Therefore it blends with the yellow of my skin to create a natural colour. I applied it sparingly over Cetaphill 50 spf moisturiser. It blended beautifully. That evening when I cleaned my face I was amazed. The redness had calmed but > is my pigmentation had disappeared, even the brown above my top lip had totally faded. I didn’t apply it the next day. But have applied it for 2 more days now and the reduction is incredible. Pigmentation has all but disappeared. Redness is shrinking/fading. Bumps have gone. Still have a few spots and broken capillaries but even the areas around these is whitening. I’m 59 and I’ve always had Rosacea but I didn’t know. So I’ve spent a fortune over years on expensive products for sensitive skin. I am so positive about this Altruist cream and feel so happy and blessed to have discovered it. I can’t believe the difference after only 5 days. Baring in mind I just threw out all my organic creams, my Chanel everything. It’s Cetaphill all the way and this Altruist cream for total weather protection and healing. So long as you apply it correctly, as you would a good foundation it is excellent and light enough to layer up over cheeks. Then the price is ridiculously cheap for what this formula does. This skin cancer specialist Doctor truly is Altruistic. I don’t leave reviews often but I just want fellow sufferers to not miss out on this amazing product as I nearly did after reading the negative reviews. This is a sophisticated cream that isn’t a dark brown smear. It’s my beautiful new BFF !!!

I want to give this 3.5 stars. Let me start off by saying I think this seems like a brilliant product but unfortunately it didn't work for me and my skin. I suffer with rosacea and eczema and have been looking for something to treat the redness or at the very least conceal it without having to wear makeup. I had my fingers crossed that this would be it. The cream has a green tint to it but when you rub it in your skin it turns to a light brown. It goes on very smoothly and dries lovely, soaking in well so that it doesn't leave any sticky residue. It smells nice and makes skin feel soft and smooth. However, I have very pale skin (around the redness) and the colour does not suit my skin tone at all, it is way too dark to match the rest of my skin. Even with a thin layer my face looked so much more tanned than my neck, ears and shoulders and I just don't feel comfortable wearing it like that. I did need to put it on a bit thicker to cover my redness and that made the colour look worse. It had a sort of yellow tinge to it. I'm really disappointed this didn't work for me but I think this would be perfect for the right person and skin tone because all other aspects of it are great. The price was worth giving it a try. Cheaper than on the high street and arrived next day with Prime. I also bought the foaming face wash, used it a few times and really like it. That was a great price too.

Amazing product - please ignore any negative reviews and try it . I developed acne rosecea last year and first sign of the sun it’s back . Evident I need factor 50 and something to counteract the mess on my face . I was in two minds and so glad I ordered it . It’s a green fluid that once applied turns skin coloured . Now I’m pale - medium . It seems to match your skin tone . Not orange as others have said . Dries Matt . Gives you coverage like a tinted moisturiser but colour corrects the red for sure . Doesn’t cover huge spots but can add concealer there . Just makes your skin look like you can be seen in public and factor 50 protection ! No stinging , no itching and belive me as I can only use cerave I’m a good tester . The only thing I would add is it is a drying formula . Ideal for acne rosacea when your face becomes an oil slick but maybe a little drying formula dry skin type rosecea . Moisturiser first ? Anyway one to deffo try . Very happy customer . No burn from factor 50 and a definite concealing effect . I will update my review in a month with further thoughts .
