Anthelios 50 Mineral Tinted Ultra Light Sunscreen Fluid - 50ml/1.7oz

Product Information

Overall, we think that La Roche Posay sunscreens are formulated well, although we’d recommend the 100% mineral products over the chemical sunscreen formulations. Pros Plus, one of the five chemical sunscreen ingredients, oxybenzone, is known to cause adverse effects. For example, the American Cancer Society says, “Some studies have shown oxybenzone can cause skin allergies. In addition, studies in animals and in human cells in laboratories show that oxybenzone can interfere with how some hormones work.” Physical sunscreens tend to be better tolerated by most skin types because they are not absorbed into the skin. Thus, they are especially useful for those with heat sensitive skin (i.e. rosacea patients) as well as those with acne-prone skin as they are typically less pore-clogging. Best for everyday wear: La Roche-Posay Anthelios Tinted Mineral Ultra-Light Fluid Broad Spectrum SPF 50 Another La Roche Posay Sunscreen that’s great for anyone with oily and/or acne-prone skin is the Anthelios Clear Skin Oil Free Sunscreen. ​​This oil free sunscreen provides broad spectrum SPF 60 protection while absorbing pore-clogging oil, even in heat and humidity.

While this moisturizer can be used by all skin types, those with oily skin will especially enjoy the oil-absorbing properties of silica. This ingredient also provides a silky feel and soft focus effect. Ideally, a single filter would be able to offer effective protection in all these ranges; in reality, what happens is that different filters have optimal performance ranges across the sunlight spectrum. In essence, the art (or science!) of putting together a sunscreen product is like completing a puzzle. The end goal is to achieve the best possible combination of filters, with the understanding that “the best combination” must a) cover the largest possible area of ​​the spectrum, b) offer optimal protection at different points of the spectrum, and c) actually be pleasant to use! La Roche Posay Tinted Sunscreen is a true multi-tasker; it acts as your moisturizer, sunscreen, and makeup — all in one product!If you’re as excited as we are to get to know the new UVMune 400 range and its star ingredient, the exclusive Mexoryl 400 filter, keep reading. Let’s review the features of these new products, and tell you everything you need to know about this new sun protection paradigm. A similar 1-star review says, “The worst sunscreen I have use so far. The good part about it is that it smells good but as soon as I start applying the product it leaves white cast and starts peeling my moisturizer. I would not recommend this to many people unless you just want to give it a shot.” Our Verdict And another 5-star review says, “I run 3 times a week and I am very fair . This melt in sunscreen works great and does not burn my eyes when I sweat. I also wear it under makeup!” Some drugs may have Authority Required (Streamlined) status which does not require an explicit approval from Medicare, instead the doctor can use the Authority code found in the published Schedule for a given drug/indication. Bottom Line: La Roche Posay Tinted Sunscreen is a 100% mineral sunscreen that provides broad spectrum SPF 50 protection while also functioning as a moisturizer and primer, but the universal tint may not be suitable for all skin tones.

It’s well known that if you want something done right, you have to do it yourself, and that’s what happened; faithful to its history of creating innovative sun filters (ever heard of Mexoryl XL and SX?), La Roche-Posay dedicated itself to creating a filter that performed optimally at the longer end of the UVA range. The result? The new state-of-the-art Mexoryl 400, the latest piece of the sun protection puzzle.We love that the formula includes the mineral sunscreen titanium dioxide, which provides broad spectrum SPF 50 protection. And you don’t have to worry about a white cast since the formula is tinted with iron oxides. The brand claims that this sunscreen provides “powerful antioxidant protection” with senna alata extract and vitamin E, but if you look at the ingredient list, you’ll see that there’s very low concentrations of both of these ingredients.
