Picking the Perfect Anthelios Product for You

La Roche-Posay’s Anthelios sun care line features an array of dermatologist-recommended sunscreens for face and body. With more than a dozen options, it can be daunting at first to try and pick which Anthelios sunscreen is the right one for you. Though all sunscreens featured in the Anthelios line from La Roche-Posay have a few things in common—all formulas are fragrance-free and tested on sensitive skin—so you can be sure that there’s an Anthelios product that works for everyone!

Need a little help finding your perfect La Roche-Posay Anthelios sunscreen? We’ve got you covered! Besides superior sun protection, what else are you looking for in your sunscreen? Click on the option that best fits your skin’s needs below or keep scrolling to browse a complete list of dermatologist-recommended picks for the best La Roche-Posay Anthelios sunscreens based on six different skin concerns.

To correct skin tone, your Anthelios Sunscreen is:

La Roche-Posay Anthelios 50 Daily Tone Correcting Primer with SPF 50

La Roche-Posay Anthelios 50 Daily Tone Correcting Primer with SPF 50

If redness, blotchiness or discoloration is your primary skin concern, learn how to protect and perfect your skin using La Roche-Posay Anthelios SPF 50 facial primer. This tinted primer can be used with or without makeup to help smooth and conceal any areas of redness or discoloration on your skin. It features a cream texture that provides mineral-based sun protection with 25% titanium dioxide.

To hydrate parched skin, your Anthelios sunscreen is:

La Roche-Posay Anthelios HA Mineral SPF 30 Moisturizer with Hyaluronic Acid

La Roche-Posay Anthelios HA Mineral SPF 30 Moisturizer with Hyaluronic Acid

If your skin tends to feel dehydrated during the warm summer months, this daily SPF 30 moisturizer is designed to provide your skin with 12-hour hydration and environmental protection thanks to skin care ingredients like glycerin and hyaluronic acid, two powerful hydrators. This Anthelios sunscreen also features senna alata, a tropical leaf extract with antioxidant properties, to help neutralize free radicals, while it provides skin protection from sun damage using zinc oxide and titanium dioxide like most mineral sunscreens.

For sensitive skin on the face and body, your Anthelios sunscreen is:

La Roche-Posay Anthelios Mineral Gentle Sunscreen Lotion SPF 50

La Roche-Posay Anthelios Mineral Gentle Sunscreen Lotion SPF 50

Looking for a mineral sunscreen you can use from head to toe on even the most sensitive skin? This all-mineral formula protects your skin using a combination of zinc oxide and titanium dioxide and dries to a non-greasy finish, so you can comfortably enjoy your time outdoors. It’s also water-resistant for up to eighty minutes, so go ahead and take a dip! Click here to see how this particular Anthelios sunscreen stacks up in comparison to other mineral sunscreens!

For a matte finish on oily skin, your Anthelios sunscreen is:

La Roche-Posay Anthelios 50 Mineral Ultra Light Sunscreen Fluid

La Roche-Posay Anthelios 50 Mineral Ultra Light Sunscreen Fluid

This lightweight facial sunscreen with all-mineral actives (zinc oxide and titanium dioxide) is the top-selling Anthelios product on LovelySkin.com—and for good reason! It’s gained plenty of fans as a result of its super lightweight texture, which disappears easily into skin to deliver a matte finish.

According to Dr. Joel Schlessinger, board-certified dermatologist,

"When my son, Dr. Daniel Schlessinger, and I climbed Mt. Kilimanjaro, the only sunscreen we took was the La Roche-Posay Anthelios 50 Mineral Ultra Light Sunscreen Fluid. I love the shaker container that allows complete mixture of the product and its compact packaging. We had very little room for anything other than essential items, and this was easily placed in a pocket of our jeans. It protected us brilliantly while we were summiting!"

Since there’s no greasy residue once applied, you can follow it up with your regular daily makeup routine or just wear it solo. If you like a hint of coverage, this Anthelios sunscreen also comes in a tinted version.

For a quick-drying finish from head to toe, your Anthelios sunscreen is:

La Roche-Posay Anthelios 60 Melt-in Sunscreen Milk

La Roche-Posay Anthelios 60 Melt-in Sunscreen Milk

Looking for a long-lasting, fast-dry formula that you can use on your face and body for UVA and UVB protection? Like the name suggests, this sunscreen has a milky texture that absorbs into the skin quickly to provide SPF 60 protection under the sun with a long-lasting blend of chemical sunscreen ingredients (avobenzone, homosalate, octisalate, octocrylene and oxybenzone). It also contains tocopherol, a form of vitamin E, that is designed to help provide your skin with an extra boost of antioxidant protection.

For anti-aging antioxidant protection, your Anthelios sunscreen is:

La Roche-Posay Anthelios AOX Daily Antioxidant Serum with Sunscreen SPF 50

La Roche-Posay Anthelios AOX Daily Antioxidant Serum with Sunscreen SPF 50

If you’d like to combine anti-aging skin care with powerful sun protection, then this easy-to-use, multitasking serum with SPF 50 from Anthelios is your best choice! It contains a quintet of chemical sunscreens—homosalate, avobenzone, octocrylene, octisalate and oxybenzone—that all work together to absorb the sun’s rays before they can damage your skin. It also features a high-potency antioxidant complex (vitamin C, vitamin E and baicalin) to help protect your skin from damaging free radicals, while working to smooth fine lines and lighten dark spots. Not only is this product a staple in any skin-illuminating routine, this sunscreen can also be used as a makeup primer! So in one easy step, a pump of this Anthelios sunscreen provides you with antioxidant protection, chemical sun protection and makeup priming…could you ask for anything more?
