I TRIED 30 MINERAL SUNSCREENS...and I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS

Did I watch every short? Yes. Am I also here for the video? Yes. 😅

I love lab muffin beauty! Glad you referenced her channel! 😊

This series has been great. I did want to add to the information you gave in the introduction that for people that have had skin cancer, mineral formulas are thought to be advantageous over chemical. Also, people need to keep in mind the UV index for when they are looking for protection. Many weather apps have the info. A % difference of a large number is a big difference. Anything is better than less or nothing. Thanks Jen!

I bought the Bubble on a whim because my 7 year old kept saying she wanted to try anything Bubble. A lightbulb went off in my head! Try Bubble sunscreen! It was another guaranteed solution to ensure she wears sunscreen! She loved it and I tried it and loved it too! On our third tube already! Thanks Jen for yet another amazing and informative video!!!!!❤

I thought that your reviews were super-informative and in general really fantastic. However, I wish that companies that are using butyloctyl salicylate or other "sunscreen boosters" (aka unapproved chemical sunscreens) in their formulas would stop labeling them as being "mineral" since those are actually hybrids. And I do find that all the sunscreen boosters (BOS, tridecyl salicylate and ethyl ferulate) are just as irritating to my sensitive skin as the regular chemical sunscreens. I checked the ingredients for all of the products you reviewed and the following are the true "mineral only" products: Bubble Plus One; Live Tinted Hueguard SPF30; Saint Jane; Supergoop MIneral Mattescreen; First Aid Beauty; Cotz; Vanicream SPF30; Drunk Elephant; Neutrogena; Naked Sundays; Kora; Cocokind. Thanks for doing this project - you have given me some good ideas of which products I should try next! ❤

That was me that mentioned the hidden UV chemical filters in mineral sunscreens!!! ❤️You explained it so well!! 🙌It was such a shock to me! Chemical sunscreens from the US kept breaking me out and burning my eyes so I switched to all mineral but still kept having the same thing happen. I was like what the heck? So I was doing some research and that’s how I found out about hidden chemical filters! Lab Muffin is such a great resource!!! Like you said, I’m not someone who is against chemical sunscreens. But, I was avoiding certain ones because they break me out and burn my eyes and octisalate was one of those, so finding out butyloctyl salicylate was in all the “100% mineral” sunscreens that were breaking me out and irritating my eyes was such an eye opener! Always appreciate all your hard work you do for your videos!!! ❤❤❤

I cannot thank you enough for this wonderful series of reviews on mineral sunscreen! You have saved us all SOOO much money. Great reviews, loved your candid assessment. Again, thank you!

Fabulous concise summary! REALLY appreciate you didn’t bury the winning formulas at the end. That you started with those… made me gladly watch the entire vid. Bravo, girl. You make the crowded field of mineral sunscreens less mysterious, more inviting. Take a victory lap… you earned it.

Jen, if you didn't earn respect from me long ago, you certainly did NOW. Not saying you haven't, fyi. This is one of the reasons I love watching your videos because you do your best to keep us informed on beauty products whether its skin care, makeup, or haircare. Your videos are like "Infomercials" that play late at night. Thank you for being our guinea pig. You are certainly well-loved. Have a wonderful day.

As someone who for whatever reason can’t use chemical sunscreen (yes even Korean, they’re all like pepper spray to my eyes and make them water so badly they crack 🥴) I appreciate this so much!!!! Thank you for doing the investigative work for us! 😊❤

These clips were so great! I loved following along all month. 😄

you explained SO well why people might want mineral sunscreens!! i kind of want a Short of you explaining it for people who just don't get it 🙂 i personally think it's important for people with allergies and preferences to have options in life - in food, makeup, skincare, medicine. helping people find options that might work for them or might be more accessible to them is just doing the Lord's work. you're the best 🥺

I really enjoyed this series. I picked up a few of the sunscreens that seemed to work for you. Most were the thinner formulas…I decided to keep an old 1/4 tsp in the bathroom to see if my two finger method was close to the recommended amount and was SHOCKED to find I was applying about 1/2 of what I should have been applying. It was an eye opener. Thanks for such a detailed test of mineral sunscreens.

Saint Jane's SPF is one of the best sunscreens I've ever used. Chef's kiss. I don't know why more people don't talk about it. Also, Agency Skincare has a Sheer tint mineral SPF that is wonderful with an SPF 50.

I enjoyed this series tremendously! I too have had skin cancer removed, along with family members. This was super helpful because I have been on the hunt for a great mineral sunscreen. This was so informative. You did an amazing job with this video. I cannot thank you enough!

Thanks for doing this series Jen! Every year I look forward to Angie Hot & Flashy's video on mineral sunscreens but, even though she's closer in age to me, she has a very different skin type and skin tone than I. Like you, my skin tends to be dryer and I have a cool pink undertone. I know this was a ton of work but I hope you make this an annual set of shorts and summary video! ♥️

I'm thankful to Lab Muffin Beauty Science for that video. I stopped wearing any sunscreen thinking I could no longer wear mineral sunscreen either. Turns out I just became sensitive to butyloctyl/tridecyl salicylate . So thankful my skin can still tolerate mineral filters. This distinction is important for those of us with extremely reactive skin. Thank you so much for a well researched video and information!

Thank you for this video! I watched all the shorts but it's nice to have a summary! Also good to know about the BS hiding in "all mineral" sunscreen so thank you for sharing that info as well!

Thank you so much for this review! I hadn’t heard of some of those brands. Glad you found out about the sunscreen boosters so that if they bother you, you’ll know why. There are a few other boosters as well, like Tridecyl salicylate and ethyl ferulate. Do you watch Lisa Petrison Beauty reviews? She has studied sunscreens too, and has started a nice list of mineral sunscreens that do not contain the boosters.❤😊

Concerning BOS (Butyloctyl salicylate), I just read that ‘some argue that BOS shouldn’t be used to reduce the concentration of UVA absorbing filters like zinc oxide, as it can create UVB biased sunscreens that are dangerous for users’. A fam member’s military dr said chemical SPF’s may end up fatal for him bc his face looked as if acid hit it. I can not wait to share this video w/him + his wife. Thank you so much for ur in-depth research on that. I had the ‘Hero’ one in my cart for them but I’ll now pick a diff top 10 of urs :). Ur June reviews were so interesting… so fun to watch + it nicely gave us so much more if u 🥰.
