I tried this a few months ago because my beauty therapist suggested it. I have never had much luck with sunscreen and makeup worn together but this one ticks most of the boxes. It's a very light lotion so a little goes a long way and it smells really nice. It's got a good container that you must shake below use. The best part for me was it doesn't make my makeup pill underneath it and lastly it doesn't find its way into my eyes at all during the day. I am sensitive around the eye area and always find sunscreens bad for this. I will be buying my of this to wear all summer long and look into their other sunscreen products aswell.

SUMMER SAVIOUR
This sunscreen is absolutely amazing; I don't like wearing products with sunscreen on my face as they usually clog my pores and make me feel oily; however, this product is so lightweight, does what it promises, and a little goes a long way!

Not worth it
Absolutely not suitable for sensitive skin. It didn't work neither for me (normal skin succeptibpe to eczema) not for my wife (oily acne prone skin). It burnt my cheeks a lot and my wife got acne after using it. The tinted version is even worse as it's a horrible shade of pink that makes you look sunburnt.

Best sunscreen
Love this sunscreen so much. I have gone through 3-4 bottles of this! It’s a bit pricey, but I will always repurchase. Glides onto the skin and never pills when wearing makeup on top. No fragrance which is always a plus.
Tips: Always shake the bottle!

La Roche-Posay® Anthelios XL Ultra Light SPF50+
Trust me this is worth your money, especially as someone with darker skin it leaves no white cast, it is super thin and goes under make up very well. Has never broke me out which a lot of sunscreens do. 100% worth the hype and money wish it came in a larger bottle.
Tips: If its on sale buy a few of them:))

Favourite sunscreen
This is my favourite sunscreen, especially when I am outside for a long time. Really nice lightweight formula and I know I won’t get burnt when wearing it. Doesn’t cause any irritation in my eyes like other brands can. It can leave a bit of a sheen but it’s honestly a top-tier sunscreen for me. LRP can do no wrong!

An Essential
La Roche-Posay Anthelios XL Ultra Light sunscreen is a standout choice. Its lightweight, non-greasy formula makes for easy application. Offering effective sun protection without the heavy feel, it's great for daily wear. Ideal for sensitive skin, it absorbs quickly and plays well under makeup. A reliable sunscreen that prioritizes both comfort and protection. Highly recommend for everyday sun care. ☀️👌
Tips: Use everyday, even during the winter 💕

Favourite sunscreen for the face!
As a fair skinned girl, I have tested my fair-share of sunscreens in attempt to find the perfect one! And this one comes pretty close to perfect! Doesn’t leave a white cast on my face, hasn’t got a super strong ‘sunscreen’ odour, and comes in a great size for taking on the go. I like the fluid formula as it just melts into the skin with ease, although can be a bit messy on the hands of you’re not careful. Goes great under even a full-face of makeup and does not pill! My skin is acne prone, and I find it is triggered by many sunscreens. Although, with this one I find no adverse effects at all! I would recommend this to everyone!
Tips: Let it sit for a little before applying makeup over top.

Best facial sunscreen
I absolutely love this screen. I have sensitive and acne prone skin. I have no problems with this. Over December holidays I had no sunburn in my face, thanks to this amazing product.
Tips: Be gentle with the quantity

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.
