Honey, I’m home!

I’ve found the one my soul loves. That’s really all I have to say. Super thin, doesn’t stay white- white cast disappears. Not oily, hasn’t given me pimples, smooths my skin out/ pores kind of decrease which is a spicy add on. First proper day of felt summer sun was lst Sunday and I spent all day gardening… no sunburn AT ALL. Coming from someone who puts the washing out and gets burnt! Works great under makeup :)

Tips: Apply it.

Anti-shine sunscreen

This sunscreen is a gel-cream that is easy to apply, sinks in well, and it leaves a very matte and soft feeling after drying on my skin. It doesn't have that sticky/greasy feeling like other sunscreens can and doesn't leave my face all shiny, which makes it great for my oily skin. It smells like normal sunscreen and doesn't seem to have any other fragrance. Love that it is SPF50+ and the bottle mentions that it has reduced content of chemical filters and no parabens.

It is quite small (50ml) but I will only use it on my face so it should last a while. The small tube always mean I can carry it with me all the time in my handbag for tops up during the day.

Tips: Reapply every two hours. And always check the expiry date of your sunscreen!

Big Fan

I am a big fan of La Roche-Posay facial sunscreens. This 50+ spf dry touch gel cream is what i would call a matt finish that instantly sinks into your skin. It would therefore be perfect for oily skin. I have combination skin with an oily tzone and still feel its quite drying.

There is a subtle sunscreen smell, which is fine and glides on easily. One pump covers my face, neck and chest fine.

Packaging is an easy pump style, with a generous 50mls. Mess free application with lid.

BEST Suncreen for Oily Skin

I have oily skin and this is the best sunscreen I have ever used. It absorbs really well into the skin and does not leave my skin oily or greasy afterwards. It doesn’t have the sunscreen smell which is amazing. I use this sunscreen every day for a week, and it has been great, no breakout, acne or extra oiliness. The sunscreen is super light, it feels lovely on the skin with beautiful matt finish. It has SPF50+ which gives me great protection from the damaging sun.

Some suncreens can make you feel sticky, heavy on the skin all day, but not this one. It is more expensive than other supermarket brands but well worth it. If you have oily skin, this sunscreen is a god sent.

Some of the best!

I have had a lot of bad experiences with sunscreen in the past, so I was a bit skeptical of La Roche-Posay Anthelios XL Anti-Shine Dry Touch Facial Sunscreen SPF50+, but I have been pleseantly surprised!

I love the 50ml size, perfect for your handbag - so I have no excuse not to always have sunscreen on hand. Even if I didn't have time to apply before I walked out the door in the morning, because it fits in my bag I can simply apply when I arrive at my destination. I found this really helpful motivation to wear sunscreen daily - which we all know we should do but sometimes ends up in the too hard basket.

I both loved and hated the packaging design. On one hand the cap and pump combo ensures there is no spillage in your bag. Big win! But on the other hand, I kept trying to squeeze the tube from the bottom before remembering it has a pump at the top that you have to press down on. Probably something I'd get used to over time but it was a bit annoying.

The product goes on white, but dries/absorbs quickly (almost too quickly!) so it feels like I need to apply quite a lot to make sure I've got good coverage. The product then mattifies leaving a soft finish and looks really good.

One of my biggest issues with sunscreen is that it eventually rubs off into my eyes and stings requiring washing off and starting again - but not this stuff! I even used the product while on holiday in Australia, and it didn't melt off or move in 35 degree heat! It lasted all day and I didnt get burnt once!

It also didn't make my skin red and angry like most other sunscreens do with regularly use. So it's passes my oily and sensitive skin test!

I highly recommend using La Roche-Posay Anthelios XL Anti-Shine Dry Touch Facial Sunscreen SPF50+ . It's some of the best sunscreen I've ever used and I will definitely be buying more!

The best sunscreen for every day!

I'm always looking for the perfect day-to-day facial sunscreen that a) has high SPF, b) doesn't make my skin feel greasy or break me out, and c) sits well under makeup. The La Roche-Posay Anthelios Dry Touch Sunscreen SPF50+ has all these qualities and then some! It feels remarkably lightweight on the skin, absorbs quickly, and mattifies my skin really well without feeling like I am wearing anything. It seems to help my skin stay matte during the day as well and I find that I don't need to touch up my makeup as often. I haven't had any breakouts, sensitivity or eczea flare-ups since using it so I think I will be repurchasing this product for a long time.

The only con for me is that I wish it was a sqeeze bottle rather than a pump; I prefer being able to control the amount of product I dispense, and sometimes the tube gets an air bubble and it's hard to pump product out. This isn't enough of a negative for me to mark it down though.

Tips: Use sunscreen EVERY DAY, even if it's cloudy!

My new holy grail for summer

Yip this will be my new holy grail for summer. Love this as I have combination/oily skin. So many positives for this, no smell, sinks right into my skin, my face doesn't look greasy and oily like some products do, easy to apply and once it is on it really doesn't feel like you have anything on.

Yip, super impressed!!!

Another winner for La Roche-Posay!!

Due to the recent long weekend I've only had a few days to trial this sunscreen but so far I'm hooked.

I've always struggled with face sunscreen, even stupidly expensive ones seem to make my face shiny cause me to breakout and have my daily makeup sliding down my face.

Not so this one!

The pump on the tube dispenses a good amount of product, which doesn't have that yucky sunscreen smell at all. The texture is great, not sticky, absorbs quickly and while it goes on white doesn't leave a white cast under makeup.

My primer and foundation sits nicely on top of the sunscreen , no piling or greasy spots.

Will definitely keep using this one, have already recommended to friends!

Tips: Use any left over product on the backs of your hands, an old tip but a goodie ;)

My New Everyday Sunscreen

I received this sunscreen from the vault. I have sun damaged skin on my face, brown patches, and can be sensitive so need a good facial sunscreen. It comes in a 50ml tube with a pump top, handy for the handbag. I used a couple of pumps for my face and neck and one pump for tops of my hands. It is a white creamy formula that sinks into skin well. A very faint sunscreen scent. I apply as a base under my moisturiser and tinted serum. This is not very gel like more of a cream. Not sticky and dried almost immediately, non oily. I avoid my eye are as they are a bit sensitive. I am using a different sunscreen for the rest of my body and will keep using the La Roche-Posay for my face, the 50ml tube will last a reasonable amount of time. 50+ spf and with thermal spring water, made in France. Highly recommend for sun protection for your face.

Tips: Use on face, neck and backs of hands also.

The best facial sunscreen

This sunscreen is amazing it doesn’t go greasy through out the day and doesn’t give a white cast if you apply it underneath foundation as well as providing very good sun protection
