No white cast!

I love this sunscreen, its so light to apply and doesn't leave any white cast on my face especially since i have tan skin its normally seen easily. It feels like you're applying a moisturiser and doesn't have that weird sticky sunscreen texture and doesn't leave my face looking greasy. I will definitely be buying this again, its worth the expensive price to me!

Number 1 Sunscreen

I love this sunscreen!

Where do i begin..

I think this sunscreen is one of the top products out there, i know all my family and friends recommend this product always. even my overseas family loves this product.

This Sunscreen really works on any type of skin, and most importantly it's gentle on sensitive. and it's really good and protective. and the good thing also about this sunscreen is i use it on my face, and i don't break out with ugly pimples.

Perfection

I have been buying this brand regularly, as I love how good it is for my sensitive skin! It's such a winner.

This sunscreen is the best out there, and I have tried a lot! It's non irritating for my family and my skin, even with my super sensitive skin.

It has a high SPF rating and protects my family and my skin from the harsh sun. The lotion is lightweight, gentle and oh so nice on my skin,

A five star product - just wonderful sun screen,

Love this sunscreen!

Actively hunted for this sunscreen after trying a sample. Non greasy, thin consistency, great under make up. I normally hate wearing an spf under makeup as it feels greasy and thick. Now I love it, I don't need a day cream as I also find it hydrating enough.

everyday staple

I love this sunscreen so much, it rubs in really quickly and has a light, dewy but not oily feel on the skin, not sticky or anything. doesn't break out my acne-prone skin as some thicker sunscreens do. probably my favourite sunscreen I've tried. only trouble is that it's quite small as most face sunscreens seem to be :(

A great sunscreen

I really like this sunscreen, it is super lightweight and a little bit goes a long way. It has a nice scent too, it is not too strong. It also does not leave any white cast on my face. I have acne prone skin so I am hesitant to use many products incase of break out but sunscreen did not break me out and I noticed that it helped soothe my skin a little bit. It is very protective against the sun as well. The only down side is the price of it as it can be a little bit pricey but it is worth it.

La Roche Posay Anthelios XL50+ Ultra Light

I have read a lot about this sunscreen and decided to try but was very disappointed.

It was very grainy and not smooth on my face. I can't find the expiry date on the box, maybe it was old stock.

Tips: Use on arms and neck areas not on face if you happen to get a grainy bottle.

Great for everyday use!

I've repurchased this four times so can testify this is a great sunscreen! It's great for oily skin and I'm sure it would work well for normal or dry skin too.

I've tried lots of different sunscreens and always find them either too greasy (like body sunscreens) which causes breakouts and looks bad or they give too much of a white cast (like zinc), but I don't have those issues with this one. The formula is really lightweight (it's quite liquid-y) so it sits well under makeup and doesn't cause any pilling.

The only negative thing about the formula is that if I apply it too soon after a vitamin C serum I feel light stinging/tingling so it's possible it might react with products with high concentrations (my vit c is about 20%).

The only other negative is that it's tiny (like most facial sunscreens) so every time I repurchase it I hesitate because of the price and quantity. It would be amazing if it was sold in larger quantities. Overall it's a great formula though and I will most likely keep repurchasing it!

Tips: If you apply any serums wait 10 minutes before applying this sunscreen to avoid reactions.

Great face sunscreen

I loved how this sunscreen didn’t break me out, which alot of sunscreens leave me with those little bumps on my cheek bones But this, thankfully didn’t. For this size it’s pretty pricey, but I’m still happy to purchase it, as it’s a regular in my skin routine It’s scent isn’t too over powering, which I really appreciated. I LOVE La Roche-Posay sensitive products. And this, also, worked great for my sensitive skin.

Tips: Always give it a good shake before use

Ready for the day!

This SPF is lightweight and absorbs quickly so you can get on with your morning makeup routine. You won't notice the extra layer, it spreads beautifully and with SPF50+ you know it will reward you in 20 years time.

Tips: I like to add a dash of illuminator on days I'm not wearing makeup over the top for a glow. On hot summer mornings I put it on then brush my teeth while I wait for it to absorb, before my makeup routine begins.
