“First off, don’t throw out your sunscreen.” Me, eyeing my bottles of purito sunscreen: ...ok, fine. I use the physical comfy water sunblock instead of the chemical one...because it’s always sold out and the physical one is (sometimes) the only one left, but now I’m lowkey suspicious of that one too...whatever the case, we’ll just need more info! Thank you for your no-nonsense presentation on stuff like this.

This is a portion of the latest response directly from Purito: The manufacturer of the product had a long history of developing quality sunscreen products and high technology, thus the marked SPF and PA index was not questioned by the brand. Moreover, the SPF 50, PA++++ of the PURITO Centella Green Level Unscented Sun was officially approved by the KFDA before the product was launched on the market. However, recently, we have received a significant amount of inquiries on clarification of the SPF and PA index of the product, that’s when we decided to verify once again the manufacturer's registration with the KFDA and the authenticity of the registered documents, we have assured that there was no problem. The product has been legally recognized by all aforementioned parties, however, due to the recent debates, we decided to conduct our own research on the efficacy of the sunscreen. In order to obtain precise results currently PURITO has requested the performance of both in-vivo and in-vitro tests for all three PURITO sunscreen products, other than the initial test conducted by the testing lab and the manufacturer. Although the results have not yet been released, we have acknowledged the seriousness of this issue. We have been closely monitoring the test results that were recently published online. As a result of which, we are pausing the sales of PURITO Centella Green Level Unscented Sun, PURITO Centella Green Level Safe Sun, and PURITO Comfy Water Sun Block until the details are fact-checked and confirmed by the parties aside from the initial manufacturer and testing lab.

I want to have a sunscreen and know that it is definitely working and protecting my face. Like yeah, it’s mostly my holy grail because it literally feels like a serum, there’s no whitecast, and it doesn’t pill at all. This sunscreen was basically the complete opposite of the past, less favorable sunscreens however.... maybe what makes the purito sunscreen so “great” is actually a sign of it not being a complete sunscreen. So I’d honestly have a sunscreen that does what it’s supposed to do versus a serum that has the label “spf” on it.. better safe than sorry.

@@hypsior I didn't feel discomfort, but again, this year I didn't go out as much as we might in the summer of 2021. Also I have pretty resilient skin, and the Centella and the moisturising factors in this sunscreen helped calm down the redness and irritation from the retinoic acid, so even if you are not going to use it as a sunscreen it is a wonderful ally on your skin retinization journey because of the other wonderful ingredients. I love this cream even just as an everyday moisturiser, but at the same time had I known it wasn't really shielding my skin from sun damage, I might have included another sunscreen on top of it for UV protection. I hope they reformulate it with SPF50 because it truly is a wonderful product. It's not a waste of money don't worry. Small tip, I suggest you buy sunscreen right before when you know you'll use it. Buying it know and let it sit months in your drawer until summer might not be the best idea because of the products' shelf life. It's not a great idea , for actives and spf especially.

I am kind of low key scared that this is going to reveal much bigger problem. I think there should be international standarts for testing, so labs dont produce confusing results and we, as consumers, know who to believe. I had this one during the summer, didnt reapply that often as I should. Going to have my marks checked once I am due to my derm check-up. Using Comfy-water physical one and honestly feeling really discouraged and annoyed to use spf at all! (still going to do it,, but it sucks, not knowing where we are know)
Assuming the results stay the same and its a SPF 19, I guess I'll just use it as moisturiser indoors, it is still a great moisturiser.
OMG ... My heart beating so fast when I got this video's notification ... Cuz, I'm about to buy this product ...
So thankful for this. I bought it too and damn it was not that easy to get it to Germany. My journey of spf is a wild one, because of acne suffering. It felt good and I haven't got a break out. Now to hear this is really disappointing 😪 Looking forward to your test results. Thank you!

@@lullatstars You clearly did not understand my comment. As per Alisia's comment, the person who unveiled this is rumoured to be creating a similar product. In the same way that Purito could have bribed their way to such SPF rating, the person who unveiled this could have bribed these labs and is using this as a marketing ploy prior to launching the product. Of course, this is just hearsay at this point, but my point is to look at this objectively from all angles because unfortunately everyone and everything can be bought these days.
It makes me cringe so hard to think of all the days I went outside with this on thinking I was getting SPF 50 but it was only 19!! That’s the thing that really bothers me about this. The discrepancy is huge. It’s not like they found it’s SPF 40 or 30... it’s 15-19. All of these months I could have chosen a different product that would have more adequately protected my skin, but I was misled. Hell, I would have used the stickiest, white-castiest sunscreen over this to get the protection I need. It’s hard to come back from this.

Dont worry too much about it lovely. I seen a really good post from dermatologist saying spf 19 is still better than nothing. Staying out the sun, hats and glasses are what are better! Spf is just one of the essentials. If you didnt see any major damage after this summer, I think you are ok. It is ideal I know but just now use other spfs! I personally am using my European spfs again as I do think Australian and European spfs are the best in the world. I agree with Cassandra not to hate all Korean spfs yes but I think small % of chemical filters and only 2 isnt enough!

I am so happy you touched on this. This is real with so many sunscreens and skin care products. Not listing full ingredients on their labels and sunscreens essentially not being what they should be, is very REAL in The beauty industry. Add in the fact products are being made in different countries and ok’d by different FDAs. I simply do not believe any of the dirty lists or products. Do your due diligence and find a skin care guru to guide you. 🙌🏻🍑Lisa Peaches Skin Care

Probably it's still good for the day at the office in winter when there is not so much exposure,, so will you do another updated video about which alternatives work well? The only one I have at the moment which is affordable is a mineral sunscreen,, but I feel that chemical filters are more long lasting if they are good ones
sometimes I think companies do know, they just know they can make money and don't care until they get caught. We live in a consumerist world and they all just want you to buy.

This is not an isolated incident as you describe. Australia has some of the strictest regulations on sunscreen. An independent organisation called ‘Choice’ tested 7 popular sunscreens in Australia and only 2 out of the 7 had the correct SPF as advertised.
I love how you always speak in different languages! Even if it´s not perfect, you try to respect the pronunciation as much as possible.

Thank you for talking about this. Always dependable, Cassandra! And yes, consumers are powerful in controlling the market, that I believe! I'm not into speculating because at my age I know anything is possible, so I'll wait to see the findings.
I used this sunscreen for a year, even on days with 35 degree weather and I didn't get burned. But, having extremely fair skin, using exfoliants and having a history of skin cancer in my family I am very concerned about what problems this year of poor skin protection potentially has caused...
Is there anything out there about how much of a percentage we should look for when researching our sunscreens? Like I know that this one has a 3% and a 2% but how do I know whether that is good enough or not? And what should I look for in the future? I hate mineral sunscreens and don't have a large budget for the more expensive ones.

Dear Cassandra, I'm truly grateful for you brought up this topic over. I'm an Australian and every year, in Australia: 1.Skin cancers account for around 80% of all newly diagnosed cancers. 2.The majority of skin cancers are caused by exposure to the sun. 3.The incidence of skin cancer is one of the highest in the world, two to three times the rates in Canada, the US and the UK. So, after watching so many KZread videos by so many popular KZreadrs, I went on and bought from YES STYLE what you exactly holding in your hand just to protect my self from unforgiving Australian sun. Luckily, Australian cosmetic industry is well regulated. Cosmetics in Australia are classified as industrial chemicals. “National Industrial Chemicals Notification and Assessment Scheme (NICNAS)” is responsible for managing industrial chemicals (cosmetics) and Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) regulates the product safety and cosmetic labeling standards. Therapeutic goods are managed by Therapeutic Goods Administration. TGA is responsible for formulating and implementing the regulations concerning registration of sponsors, advertising, labeling and manufacturing of therapeutic goods. Now here comes the best part; Amorepacific is the very first South Korean cosmetic company to enter the Australian beauty market in 2018 with their brand 'Laneige’ then "innisfree" and they have few flagship stores around the country. However,Amorepasific are not allowed to sell any of their sunscreens in Australia! The reason, as per one of the Amorepacific Australia Pvt Ltd senior staff member told me was South Korean SPF ratings are much lower than the Australian SPF ratings. It's exactly what you saying on your video, when South Korean cosmetic companies claim & labeled South Korean Sunscreens in South Korea SPF50++++ then when they got tested here in Australia by NICNAS, ACCC & TGA , they were actually below SPF20+!!! Unfortunately, people all over the world are allowed to buy them on popular online platforms under false impressions that these sunscreens will protect them.
The biggest thing for me is we need to push for approval of these ingredients. That's going to result in more use and testing of products containing them.
Has the Biore aqua uv essence been tested yet? That one made me tan and I gave it up. Never looking back. I bet it's also like spf 19 or less...
