La Roche-Posay ANTHELIOS XL SPF 50+ FLUID ULTRA-LIGHT

After trying many different brands of sunscreens - from korean to european to australian, La Roche Possay is one that i keep coming back to.

favourite sunblock of all brands. light and doesn't clog. non-sticky.

I bought this sunscreen for my ski trip in the French Alps, and this was very effective in keeping my skin protected from the harsh sunny conditions up in the mountains. Despite the fact that there was absolutely no shade, and I had dry alpine winds blowing at my face as I skiied down the slopes, my skin stayed flawless. I only have this sunscreen to thank. All in all, it's a solid recommendation for anyone who will be under lots of sun exposure. In terms of cosmetic elegance, I admit that it is not as lightweight as the popular Korean/Japanese daily sunscreens, but it definitely punches above its weight in turns of UV protection. My overall recommendation is to use these lightweight Korean/Japanese sunscreens for daily use when one is not engaging in extreme or outdoors sports, but stick to tried and tested formulas like this LRP sunscreen when it matters most.

If you hate that sticky, greasy sunscreen feeling (same), run, don’t walk to get the La Roche-Posay Anthelios XL SPF 50+ Fluid. This stuff is a total game changer — it’s crazy lightweight, sinks in like a dream, and leaves ZERO white cast. It literally feels like you’re wearing nothing, but your skin is fully protected. I wear it under makeup and it doesn’t pill, doesn’t make me oily, and doesn’t clog my pores. Plus, it’s water-resistant and fragrance-free, so even my sensitive skin is thriving. It’s one of those products you don’t realize you needed until you try it — and then you can’t go a day without it. SPF is non-negotiable, and this one makes it so easy to stay protected without the usual drama. Adding this to my forever list.

I started using this brand of sunscreen during my pregnancy. It doesn't feel oily after apply and is lightweight. I chanced upon it when I needed a chemical-friendly sunscreen for pregnant women. This is my second re-purchased during my pregnancy and I will continue to use it even after deliver!
