Dr. Sam’s skincare is a brand that has taken the skincare industry by storm. Founded by Dr. Sam Bunting, a renowned dermatologist with years of experience in treating skin conditions, this brand focuses on delivering simple, effective, and affordable skincare solutions to people of all ages and skin types.
One of the most impressive things about Dr. Sam’s skincare is the emphasis on the use of clinically proven ingredients in their products. Each product is formulated with a blend of active ingredients that work together to address specific skin concerns. For instance, the Flawless Daily Sunscreen is a broad-spectrum SPF 50 sunscreen. It not only protects your skin from harmful UV rays but also contains niacinamide and hyaluronic acid to hydrate and brighten your skin.
Another thing that sets Dr. Sam’s skincare apart from other brands is the transparency about the ingredients used in their products. All the ingredients are listed on the website, and the brand has a no-nonsense approach to marketing, which means that you won’t find any gimmicks or false promises.
In terms of packaging, Dr. Sam’s skincare has opted for a minimalist approach with simple white and black packaging with a red script that looks chic and modern. The products are also reasonably priced, making them accessible to everyone.
Products I have tried
Dr. Sam’s team were very kind to send us a broad range of their products to trial. This was so beneficial as I was able to ditch all other brands and just try the Dr. Sam range, which gave me real results.
All of the Dr. Sam’s products are fragrance-free which I know appeals to many. My only issue with the brand is that there are so many products to choose from. Do I need regular moisturiser or light moisturiser? I tried both, and I think I decided light is for summer. But right now, after a long cold winter, I need the slightly richer regular moisturiser. However, there is a routine finder page on their website. This is a good place to start if choosing this brand.
I loved the Flawless Cleanser as it just needs warm water to rinse off. No need for a cloth or flannel. I am a two-cleanse woman. This cleanser washed away all make-up and grime from the day without making my skin feel stripped. I also like that you can buy a refill which saves money.
The Flawless Revival Mask is a quick 10-minute deeper cleanse that I have been using once a week. They call it “a big glass of water for overwhelmed skin” with 10% niacinamide, shea, squalane, glycerin and hyaluronic acid.
The last two products I tested were Flawless Nightly Eye Serum and Flawless Nightly Serum. The Nightly Serum does give my skin a glow. Happily, the Eye serum did not make my eyes water as I have extremely sensitive eyes.
I used all of these products on holiday as they all came in 50 ml tubes or bottles. I carried them with me and used them on the long-haul flight. And the confirmation that I like this range is that I am still using them, which must mean my skin loves them.
Conclusion
Dr. Sam’s skincare is a fantastic brand that offers effective, affordable and no-nonsense skincare solutions. The brand’s emphasis on clinically proven ingredients, transparency, and simplicity makes it an excellent choice for anyone looking to improve their skin health.
