Reviews For La Roche-Posay Anthelios 50 Daily Anti-Aging Primer with Sunscreen
My search for the right primer is over
I have sensitive, combination (oily T-zone) skin and this is the ONLY product that visibly smooths, doesn't clog my pores or cause me to break out, and gives me the UV protection I want. It is also provides a great canvas for makeup, though I often skip the foundation altogether and just use this with a light dusting of powder on top. I won't try another primer again I've found the one for me.

Unbelievably Wonderful!
I am so glad that I purchased this product! I have a drawer full of primers and none of them have really worked for my 50+ skin. The only reason that I decided to try this one was because of the sunscreen element. Often with sunscreens, I find that they pill up when I apply any kind of foundation over them. I was about to return ANOTHER foundation because I didn't like the way it clung to dry patches and this primer made it behave perfectly! This definitely has a strange consistency but as other reviewers have said, a little goes a long way. I squeeze out a little and warm it up between my fingers and it warms up further as I smooth it over my skin. Love it!

Perfect Primer
Id never used a primer before this one. Ive been using it for 3 years now. Leaves a perfect matte finish to use alone or under foundation. Smooths over my large pores. Sunscreen is a plus. Comes out of the tube very thick, a little goes a long way, it sort of "melts" on your skin.

another great product from LaRoche Posay-great for shine control
anthelios 50 sunscreen+primer-I have been using this product for years! Not only does it have sunscreen(spf50), but the primer controls oily shine All Day w/o being greasy, even better than mattifying silicone products Ive tried. I mix it with another moisturizer in winter for dryness and it works just as well.

Your skin looks SO even and beautiful
I LOVE this product and have used it for years. Its amazing and you can literally see a "before" and "after". Its almost as if you had the "blur" function from Photoshop in reality.

Great Sunscreen
I have been using this product for 3 years. I have oily skin and it keeps my makeup fresh all day. It is one product that continues to work.

Best combo sunscreen and primer
This is a great, high 50 SPF sunscreen and primer combined. Although it is broad spectrum it is not a sunblock. When I used it I did NOT need my mineral powder as my complexion was "blurred" quite nicely. My derm recently told me I should use a total sunblock so I began blending a little of my Anthelios 50 Primer with a total block and it was perfect. No breakouts, no shine and very pretty skin with great protection. By the way I used Replenix Sheer Physical Sunscreen to blend with my Anthelios.

Great Primer
I wish I had discovered this product before the summer had started! When I bought it I thought it was a sunscreen but it really is a primer with a high SPF. Its a thick creamy primer that really smooths skin and fills in imperfections (especially large pores, a bonus!), and as previously noted, a little really goes a long way. I only wear this on the weekends, when I know Ill primarily be outdoors and need the extra sun protection. It also keeps my makeup from day to night. Will keep. Will buy again.

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE
This is a perfect way to protect and to smooth out all the little imperfections before applying my make up. A little goes along way, pressing it gently into the skin. I like using it in where I have larger pores and fills them in. Two amazing features in one, primer and a 50spf sunscreen that is light and non greasy.

Not Great on Oily Skin
I have 0ily/Combination skin and when I applied this sunscreen, my skin felt very greasy. I kept waiting to see if it would absorb into my skin but it never did. The times that I have applied the sunscreen, I would just apply the Substiane + Serum and avoid moisturizing. The texture of this sunscreen feels and looks like vaseline. I will probably try the other Anthelios products that are lighter and best for my type of skin.

Love this product!
I have combination / dry / mature skin. I recently started using this. I only need a tiny bit. I spread it on my fingers and apply. Feels like silk. My makeup looks much smoother since I started using this product. Very happy!

Great Sunscreen and Primer for Oily Skin
I love this sunscreen! Living in Scottsdale, AZ, the sun is strong all year long and daily protection is a must even if you are just going to and from the car. I use the Elta MD Clear and then apply this over it in the t-zone and around my eyes. It blurs the wrinkles and provides a fantastic matte base for makeup. I used to go through several blotters a day to get rid of nose and chin shine, but find when using this product that I only need one blotter touch-up during the day. It takes a few attempts to determine how to apply the product as it is very dense. I put a little on the back of my hand, warm/blend it slightly, and the sunscreen glides easily over my face.

so disappointed!
I was hoping this would be like the primer I already use (or better!), but unfortunately, its not. It goes on nicely, but only after a couple hours I feel like my makeup is greasy and sliding off...and it is! yuck!! I dont like that feeling at all! Plus its $10.00 cheaper than the Colorscience I use already. Boo Hoo! Ill just stick with my Colorscience.

Wanted to love this
Regardless, it isnt good as a daily product under makeup. It balled up. I tried exfoliation and it continued to ball up. I do use it for sports or outdoor on the weekend, but I would stick with other products in the La Roche Posay line.

A primer that doesnt feel like primer
I was surprised at the paste coming out of the tube when I made my first try. I didnt know what to do with this tiny bit of paste that looks like it can crumble or roll off my finger any time. So I carefully it pressed it onto my face and spread it even. It feels silky not greasy. A good moisturizer. Effective sunscreen. I like it that it balances my complexion.

Fantastic product
I love the other LaRoche-Posay Anthelios products I use and was looking for a primer so I decided to try this product about 9 months ago. I am very pleased with the results. Even the technician who has been giving me facials for over 30 years wanted to know what I was using_ she could see the difference in my skin.

Best Primer and Sunscreen for oily skin
I have looked high and low for a sunscreen that is also doubles as a good mattifier for my oily skin. Its not often that a product can do both. It makes my skin look great!

Amazing Product
This sunblock with primer is clear and it goes on smoothly. I was using their melt in sunblock and then using a primer, this cuts it down to one step...perfect! I have olive/brown skin.

Thick and soothing
This sunscreen feels great in the colder months. it is thick and soothing to dry skin. It also erases the sheen on your skin to give it a matte look.
