DOLL FOUNDATION.............WHERE'S THE "SUNSCREEN"?

SweetSpice — Tue, 14 May 2024 19:04:50 GMT

I ordered the TSV and ws shocked when I reallized that there is no "Sunscreen" in the Foundation! ALL the foundations on QVC seem to have included that in their foundations and Doris Dalton as a "doctor" and "skin cancer survivor" you would have thought would have put that in her foundation!....I do have my own sunscreen and would imagine that I use this "before the foundation application"?....What do you think?

I use that foundation on occasion. It's good but you have to be careful & not use too much, unless you have a lot to cover.I either mix it with a little sunscreen before applying or I use a moisturizer with SPF underneath it.

Doris had thyroid cancer. That being said, I also thought it would have been good to have it include a mineral sunscreen.

Sunscreen in a foundation is never enough protection. It would be a nice plus but no substitute for using sunscreen underneath.

@SweetSpice

I ALWAYS used a moisturizer with SPF, so whether the foundation has any or not, it really doesn't matter.

Personally, I'd rather choose my own SPF, so I know what I'm getting.

If sunscreen is important to you, I will assume you already have that in your makeup stash ... right?

@SweetSpice Although it is nice to have sunscreen in our foundation, I'm not sure why you believe ALL QVC foundations have sunscreen. Searching "foundation" there are 178 but only 33 have sunscreen. Perhaps you are thinking of BB and/or CC creams? These have sun protection.

I use a tinted CC cream with sunscreen and rarely need foundation. However, when I do, I will just put foundation over the CC cream.

Makeup with sunscreen does not provide adequate protection. Better than nothing, but inadequate.

I add sunscreen to my skin before putting on foundation.

I read somewhere that sunscreen added to foundation really doesn't work very well. I don't remember the reason why but I just figured that I would add it separately.

Plus I will put sunscreen all over my face and neck. I only add a few dots of foundation to my cheeks.

I love her foundation as it does not oxidize and two hours later look like paste on my face from sunscreen. I hope she never changes her formula. Not only does it not settle in fine lines but it makes my complexion look perfect.👍 Best foundation I have ever used in the 50+ years I have worn makeup.💕

@SweetSpice

it contains titanium dioxide, which serves not only as a great opacity maker but also a sunscreen.

Note the spf of this product is only 33.

I would NEVER want sunscreen in my foundation. You don't use enough foundation to get the proper protection from the spf. I always use a separate spf.

No spf is why I did not order. Call me lazy, but I prefer to wear spf right in my foundation for most of the year; one less layer on my face! In the summer I do use a face spf separately as my dermatologist recommended. He said Summer when you are outdoors more I need more than what is in foundation. I also use Elemis Marine Cream with spf as my daily moisturizer.

My dermatologist said it's okay in the winter but come summer use a separate sunscreen on the face.

That depends on where you live and your lifestyle. Winter in the Northeast I am not outdoors much, no skiing for me, so my dermatologist said it's enough to have it in foundation but come summer use a separate spf.

I just watched a reputable plastic surgeons YouTube video on the subject of sunscreen and he said NEVER rely on foundation that has sunscreen in it. Instead always use a sunscreen first before applying foundation with or without sunscreen in it. And sunscreen should be worn year round.

*** Winter months can be worse for the suns rays than warmer months. Over 90% of wrinkles are caused by exposure to the sun.

Sunscreen in makeup is useless because you still are supposed to wear a sunscreen underneath. She said she don’t ever put it in her.products. It also changed it’s formulation.

I only use sunscreen when I am staying out in the sun. I do not like the feel of it on my face and it clogs my pores. I have tried many and currently have Beekman and RMS so they are nice brands but still bother my skin. PS... I have had skin cancer so I do know the benefits of using SPF but for me I do not think I need it at all times.
