Happy with it - everyday use
I did a lot of research before purchasing a face sunscreen for everyday use and chose this one even after reading some negative reviews. I have experienced a perfect consistency with this sunscreen and wonder if some people who find it gritty just aren't shaking it before using. Also, this product g...

Yes, it's grainy now
I've used this for years, and yes they changed the formula and yes it is grainy now. I thought at first it was due to the heat of summer and maybe the formula was separating in storage everywhere due to that, but it has persisted through the winter with bottles made more recently. I've bought bottle...

Best sunscreen ever.

This is the silkiest, lightest, most protective sunscreen I have ever worn. I adored it when my skin was a lot oilier than it is now, but it still works. I am always amazed that a zinc ingredient can be so light, especially when I recall those days at the beach, long ago, when I sported what we all called "lifeguard nose." I love the audible mixing beads inside the container, I love the cosmetically elegant finish, and I love that this sunscreen protects my face from photoaging. I can actually turn my face up to the sun without worries.
Love this! Received a sample. Immediately bought the full
Light weight. Feels so soft on face.
too pale-- even for fair skin, however...
I'm light skinned, but not the fairest (level 2 neutral). This sunscreen seems like it rubs in clear, but it looks terrible over any dry spots. I can rub it in until it's invisible, but you don't want to do that too much to sunscreen or it won't be effective enough. I also have the tinted version of this sunscreen which is much better, but a bit too dark for me. So I mix a few drops of this white into the tinted for the perfect hue. However, this is an annoying process, so I hope La Roche eventually makes more shades of this product. **THE GOOD:*** the texture is amazing, by far better than many of the older versions of mineral sunscreens. It dries down to a silky finish and doesn't feel sticky, thick, or greasy. I only need to apply a very light amount of finishing powder after. It's not moisturizing, so I do make sure to apply a tiny bit of moisturizer and let it soak in beforehand. If you're super pale or don't have flaky skin, you might love this sunscreen. If you're closer to light-med tone, try the tinted version first.
Recommended by my Dermatologist for Melasma protection
I love this sunscreen! I started using this years ago as my daily morning moisterizer and sun protectant. I am very pale and have dry skin, so this formula is lovely for me. I detect a faint white cast until it absorbs into my skin, so those with any type of pigment in their skin might not like this product. Those with oily skin - I'm not sure how this would react with your oils, either. My dermatologist recommended this to me once I developed mild Melasma in June 2020. I now use even more of this product to protect my skin!
Don't Buy
This sunscreen is highly recommended and I don't understand why. If you have dry skin its not for you it will settle into every dry patch. Also leaves you looking super pale even hours later. The "matte" finish feels chalky or powdery on the skin. For the price of this sunscreen i don't understand how it has this many problems

- Q
Will this product leave a white residue on a medium dark complexion?
- Asked by Doriam
- Official Answer By La Roche-Posay - BEHi There! Depending on the formulation, chemical sunscreens may be easier to rub into the skin and are less likely to leave a white cast. Like mineral sunscreens, chemical sunscreens should also be applied 15 minutes before sun exposure, to effectively protect your skin from UV rays. The La Roche-Posay Anthelios Mineral Ultra-Light Sunscreen Fluid SPF 50 with zinc oxide and titanium dioxide offers oil-free, 100% mineral sunscreen protection.Was this answer helpful to you
