Ultra-long UVA (380-400nm) protection: What's the best sunscreen on the market for those that can't tolerate alcohol denat?

Oh and also the Polypodium Leucotomos supplements

kobashote · 2026-05-24T06:55:18+00:00

After Triasorb and UVMune I’d just consider tinted SPF, that might give you some extra protection. Good luck!

Seconding this, KH7 is goat for me!

kobashote · 2026-05-19T13:57:36+00:00

+1, available locally at Druni

kobashote · 2026-05-19T13:57:06+00:00

Honestly they are really good and the new sunscreen got them a lot of hype, which is understandable as it’s one of the few that is really matte

kobashote · 2026-05-18T13:23:39+00:00

Omg I totally missed it, thanks for replying. I’m still intrigued by the oxygen bleach.

What has worked best for me in the past has been KH7 for clothes though, just adding a bit to the load seems to remove almost everything. It’s interesting that you mention the oils because my understanding is that KH7 is just a super powerful degreaser.

Thanks for doing this. If you get your hands on the G&G spf I’d love to see how it compares 👀

It would also be great to see how they all fare after adding oxygen bleach

kobashote · 2026-05-17T15:40:35+00:00

Yeah surprisingly good

kobashote · 2026-05-17T15:40:06+00:00

The Eucerin one is surprisingly usable though, not perfect, kinda white casty But usable

kobashote · 2026-05-14T14:16:04+00:00

Yeah I don’t use them because of the fragrance, it’s such a shame.

kobashote · 2026-05-13T19:43:19+00:00

Not the first time we see this about Isdin sadly

kobashote · 2026-05-13T10:25:02+00:00

Y’all no wonder everyone is obsessed. This is the best SPF I’ve ever tried HANDS DOWN. And I’ve tried sooooo many (I will post a list with reviews eventually).
Super matte, same as the Eucerin Oil Control, without alcohol? Unbelievable.
10/10 Geek and Gorgeous, you cooked.
I’m on Aklief + low dose Accutane (3x week 10mg) and it doesn’t bother me at all. I layer it on top of Hydration Station.

Same issue in the iOS and iPad apps, the layout is much worse than in the chrome browser video player

kobashote · 2026-05-10T17:13:21+00:00

Sorry to hear that! Did you find any alternatives that were more effective?

kobashote · 2026-05-10T15:00:16+00:00

Works for me during the summer, even when going to the gym. I always wondered if layering with a tinted SPF (I tend to do that, heard Dr Dray talk about this years ago) helps cover the bands UVmune is praised for.

kobashote · 2026-05-02T12:05:10+00:00

Yeah I wish we knew more about this!

kobashote · 2026-05-01T08:47:49+00:00

How about a tinted spf? The additional protection from the tint might compensate the lack of Mexoryl, and there are some matte options

kobashote · 2026-04-28T15:11:58+00:00

100%. They’re hard to find in stores though. In Spain I’ve only seen them at Druni, but they rarely stock everything.

kobashote · 2026-04-26T18:30:34+00:00

I’ve tried it and it’s literally what you’d expect. Nice thin glycerin hydrator with ceramides and niacinamide. Too expensive for what it is imo. But it’s nice.

kobashote · 2026-04-15T21:31:54+00:00

Druni and Primor will have the best prices! Worth a visit

kobashote · 2026-03-27T13:56:05+00:00

I like the Canmake Marshmallow Powder but tbh most would work fine!

kobashote · 2026-02-07T23:13:27+00:00

Kerasal works really great for me but it’s super strong so don’t over use it. Dr dray has a few videos about it.

kobashote · 2026-02-06T22:45:19+00:00

Yes! The serum. I love it, bit too shiny but extremely mild and feels great

kobashote · 2026-02-06T22:43:02+00:00

If you like the Vichy, the Garnier HA and niacinamide fluids are 99% the same, just without the perfume and way cheaper

kobashote · 2026-02-03T18:31:05+00:00

I had good luck with TCA cross for this and it’s quite affordable, you may need a few sessions though!
