Reviews For La Roche-Posay Anthelios Mineral Gentle Sunscreen Lotion SPF 50
Perfect for Sensitive Facial Skin!
I have finally found the best mineral-based facial sunscreen with this product! I have rosacea and sensitive skin, so I have tried many brands. I love that this product has a low toxicity rating on EWG, and is dermatologist-recommended. I get no irritation and full coverage with this product. Tip: use a regular daily moisturizer underneath to eliminate a thick white film from the zinc. I highly recommend!!

Great mineral sunscreen
I like this mineral sunscreen because it feels light, blends in easily and does not make you look like a ghost. I am very happy with it!

Goes on smoothly and doesn't leave any white film. That was very important for me. I strongly recommend it!

So far, so good!
I usually cannot tolerate sunscreen of any sort - chemical agents cause immediate red burning on my skin, and even some physical ones will cause hives and itching. La Roche-Posay Anthelios Mineral Gentle Sunscreen Lotion SPF 50 so far has been great! Slight white cast initially but it sinks in, otherwise sometimes I also mix in a little tinted bare minerals moisturizer for some glow. Best of all though, no sunburn and no adverse reaction!

Thick coverage
I am giving this five stars because of the high mineral content. It does leave a white coating on my skin that does melt in eventually. Definitely for someone that wants a serious sun block. With 15% zinc you are covered!!

Gentle, effective mineral sunscreen
This sunscreen goes on white, but becomes invisible when absorbed into the skin. It goes a long way, so I put it on lightly. It has completely prevented sun burn , even in long days on the beach. It is very gentle and I prefer using mineral versus chemical sunscreens.

Favorite face sunscreen
After many unsuccessful tries, this is the best very-low-silicone sunscreen I can find for daily use. It's a bit thick in texture, but don't let that deter you! I use bare minerals complexion rescue tinted moisturizer on top (after blending in the white cast, but before the sunscreen is completely dry). I'm happy with the way this sunscreen protects facial skin, and it wears well year-round. Great for makeup application - does not make products pill, and doesn't dry out skin. Nice product. Hoping this review helps someone who had a similar sunscreen-search saga.

Sensational sunscreen
I love this sunscreen! It goes on easily and does not need time to penetrate before going outside. It is highly recommended by EWG because of all the chemicals it does not have and for the ingredients that are contained that are gentle for my skin. I use this every day except when it’s raining!!

Best sunscreen I’ve used for highly sensitive skin
I have highly sensitive skin with contact dermatitis and eczema, so I have to use physical sunscreens. This is the first sunscreen that I have used on my face that doesn’t cause acne or dermatitis. I have olive skin tone and it does take a little time to work it into my skin but after a minute or less of blending, there is no white sheen.

Affordable and effective
Very economical to use with just pea size it works for the whole face. It helped my face protected from heat this summer and moisturizes my skin at the same time.

Good Mineral Sunscreen
This sunscreen works really well. It does not cause breakouts to my sensitive skin. It also does not irritate skin. It does need to be rubbed in to not show. But, it is worth the effort.

No harmful chemicals
Great sun protection. Goes on smoothly and stays put. I've been buying La Roche-Posay products for years, and I trust them with my skin as well as my family's. Most of all, I really love that this sunscreen is mineral based.

Good as a no-fuss mineral sunblock
It goes on white and fades away completely (my skin is NC 30), which is great because I can see the areas I missed during application, but I DON'T have to wear make up to fix my skin tone afterwards. It is a little frightening how white/blue it appears when first applied, but give it 10 minutes. Before you leave the house it will be invisible. The texture is a rich cream that dries to a demi-matte powder finish without drying out my skin. There also is a bit of a "soft focus" finish to it (maybe the silica?) that subtly enhances my skin after dry down. I really like this for days where I just wear sunscreen and concealer.
