ANECDOTE

Personal Sunscreen Preferences

  • Julian prefers non‑US sunscreen formulas for better UVA protection and texture based on his testing experience.
  • He frequently tests many sunscreens and returns to favorites like Yuceran Oil Control and O'Keeves SPF lip balm.
ADVICE

Measure Results Objectively

  • Run objective measurements to prove product performance using devices and imaging analysis.
  • Use those numbers to substantiate marketing claims rather than relying on anecdotes.
INSIGHT

Clinicals Help But Aren't Everything

  • Clinical trials are useful but not mandatory for effective products and many great small brands can't afford them.
  • Combine reviews, word of mouth and perception studies when full clinicals aren't feasible.
