ANTI-AGING DNA REPAIR ENZYMES ISDIN Eryfotona SUNSCREEN REVIEW @DrDrayzday

For oily skin is right! This Ageless was such as astringent sunscreen my dry skin felt TIGHT! It even pilled\ flaked one day… No. no. No (can’t believe this is so touted by derms!)

I have tried so many sunscreens and I think I’ve found “the one” in the Isdin tinted. I have very dry skin and so far this has not made me dryer as so many others have.💗

Thank you so much Dr. Dray for your reviews and knowledge. You really help us to make informed decisions and I (as so many others), really appreciate it!

Can I mix tinted and untited to dilute the orange-ness?

Can i layer the both

Now if ISDN would just combine 400 Immune w/ DNA Repair!😢

I started using ISDIN Eryfotona Actinica a week ago and am IN LOVE. First of all, it wears beautifully under makeup. You do have to let it set for 10-15 min though so it won't pill. But once it sets..beautiful. There is a white cast initially (I'm white but have very olive/mediterranean skin tone) but once it sets there's no cast at all for me. Some hyperpigmentation has already faded with this even though prior to switching I have been wearing an spf 50 for 8 months. It's just a great sunscreen. There is a hint of scent but it bothers my rosacea prone sensitive skin less than some other 'non scented' sunscreens on the market. My morning routine is just a light warm water rinse, followed by the ordinary's azelaic acid and then the isdin. If I'm feeling extra dry I will put on a lightweight moisturizer on before the isdin. LOVE THIS STUFF.

My dermatologist just recommended Isdin but I’m not a big fan of the price and trying to decide if it’s worth it. I’m 52 , on Tretinoin and want to tone down pigmentation.

Does anyone know the UVA rating on this?

In the tinted sunscreen there are the ingredients sodium benzoate and ascorbic acid, which when exposed to high heat or light turns into the carcinogenic and dna damaging chemical benzene. As this product is designed to be in the Sun, are these two ingredients truly harmless in this product please?

I’ve been using photozyme dna repair enzymes in their youth dna serum. And the results are so good. In less than a month, my sun spots have faded so much. I can see my freckle pattern more clearly. I just ordered isdin sunscreen. The EA one

The price is better than laroche

At least if you live under a rock, you're not going to have to worry about sun damage.

I tried ISDIN Erifotona, Colorescience sunforgettable face shield and colorerscience powder and all 3 caused me to get a rash (texture skin) please help! My skin sensitive, acne prone-oily. I know my skin reacts with lactic acid glycolic acid…Any recomendations?

Can I use the non-tinted version during pregnancy?

Sunscreens should be fragrance free. The most scented sunscreen I've ever had was Nuxe Sun SPF 50. They advertise it as smelling of orange blossom, gardenia and vanilla. Apart from the overwhelming scent it was a fantastic sunscreen, non-sticky, lightweight and surprisingly qiute inexpensive. I would repurchase it but the scent was so strong my husband hated it when I was using it. As for Isdin I used Isdin Fusion Water (blue bottle) and I liked it, although I still trust most La Roche Posay's Anthelios ans SVRs.

Do the Isdin sunscreens protect against bluelight???

Can one add a DNA repair enzymes serum after a Growth factor serum? What is the best CNA Enzyme serum that is not a sunscreen. What sequence would you apply after derma rolling.

I bought this product and really liked how it felt on my skin, but after today, I am very disappointed. The UV protection actually offered by this sunscreen is much less than advertised. I went to a football game at around noon, and reapplied my sunscreen after 1.5 hours. My mom had told me that my freckles were showing and I was very confused. I did apply enough of the sunscreen and didn't put anything on top. Upon further research by EWG, I found that it has a very poor rating for it's real SPF and doesn't protect from UVA very well.

Dr. Dray, can they be mixed if you have lighter skin ?

Just purchased ISDIN Eryfotona Actinica, as I have been looking to switch to an all mineral sunscreen. Most are way too thick and goopy on my skin. Also, I don't care for tinted sunscreens because they always look "off" on my light complexion, which is why I didn't go for the Ageless version. WOW, I was an EltaMD Clear user for years and I have been converted. Elta was always a tiny bit greasy and though I loved it, it was the one downside. I had a definite sheen in my T-zone all day. For a mineral sunscreen, ISDIN is a complete dream!! I personally didn't notice any white case, though; I am somewhat fair. I have combo, sensitized skin and this was the perfect mix of moisture without the shine....seriously just perfect for me. Very lightweight and while I amno longer a big make-up wearer, I think it would go over this nicely. Only downside was the fragrance. It is a baby powdery smell and is a bit strong at first. I can say that it quickly dissipated and whatever the "fragrance" additive is, it didn't seen to affect my sensitive skin, so this is now my go-to. It is pricy ($60 vs. Elta's $39) but the bottle is big and I can see it lasting several months. MAKE SURE TO SHAKE IT WELL BEFORE APPLYING ;0)

JDD did a study and verified this is true.

LOve LOve XOXo

Hello Dr Dray. Have you seen or heard how the white cast is on women of color? Does the ashy look fade away? I am considering ordering this one but don’t want to end up with a $70 jar in my sunscreen cometary 😅.

Is there a european alternative?

This technology is fascinating, however as a scientist I am a little skeptical that Large Proteins like DNA repair Enzymes can be squeezed in a liposome and delivered to the skin cell.

My father had some instances of bacteriosis on his forehead, nearby the spots where he has the most skin damage. Can a weakened immune system by uv explain that? He is healthy otherwise, but insists not to wear sunscreen. Be believes that creams and sprays etc make him sweat even more and cause the bacteriosis :(

Can I mix these two if the tint for me is way darker than I want it to be?

Everything DNA repair related seems to be so expensive are there any affordable options? Can you talk about more products

How often do you suggest repeating during the day?

70$? Wow... You can buy it in Germany for around 23€...

Hmm… I just googled these here in Germany, but I didn’t find those exact same products, just what seem to be similar sunscreens. I’m not entirely sure however, since everything I’m finding here from ISDIN seems to cost a fraction of the what the products Dr. Dray reviewed cost. Interestingly though, the German reviews for one of the sunscreens I found kept mentioning disappointment at the ”incredibly high“ (i.e. 17 euro price point). Lol! I guess that just goes to show that ISDIN, like any other company looking to make a profit, will charge what they can, but also where they can. Germans for example would never in a million years pay 70 euros for a sunscreen, but I guess Americans will…? I’m sure ISDIN is thanking their lucky stars that America exists! :-) otherwise, they would likely not be able to get away with charging such high prices that most other nationalities would refuse to pay.

Please let us know what you have on your lips. They look so beautiful.

These spfs have alcohol denatured close to the top of the list and fragrance…. It’s a pass for me

thanks Dr. Dray, looking forward to learn the other products offered by this line.

I tried the untinted Isdin sunscreen but unfortunately the scent is very strong. I’m sensitive to fragrance though. Also, it did make me break out when I used it. I had high hopes for this sunscreen but I had to stop using it. I really hope they make a version without a scent!

Hello! New person here, I have a question, if we wear makeup on top of the sunscreen how can we reapply ? I love using my sunscreen and spend about 3-5 hours outdoors during the summer. I’ve always been told I should reapply but how ???

Sesderma uses this technology and their products are amazing

What is your opinion of Neova sunscreen, which makes the same sort of pitch re DNA as Isdin. I use both and find the both acceptable but expensive. I've had melanoma and other significant skin cancers on my face, so I'm extra motivated to find the best product. I can use tinted sunscreen instead of foundation in the daytime, but I prefer a non-shiny appearance upon dry-down. I only use cruelty-free products, though I observe that you don't care.

The alcohol is the reason that I didn’t purchase this product because I have dry skin 😬

Would tretinoin also repair DNA?

Does it leave a white cast? Have any coloured folks tried it?

So sad that ISDIN is a Spanish brand but we can't find this product here. :(

Are these good for melasma from getting darker?

Is denat. Alcohol ok in skincare? I keep hearing mixed things

I tried many mineral sunscreens and all were really bad in terms of leaving a white cast or irritating. My derm suggested I try the ISDIN which I did and I will never ever touch any other sunscreen. It's just so light, has no cast, and works really well.

omg that makeup queeeen

Can we use DNA repair sunscreen with tretanoin since both work for DNA repair?

I bought the ISDIN sunscreen from my derm when it was first introduced. I didn't find the fragrance to be subtle (maybe they dialed down the intensity over the years). I loved the texture and the coverage, but I couldn't handle the annoying (and long-lasting) fragrance.
