How to Use Anthelios SPF 50 Gentle Lotion Mineral Sunscreen
Directions:
- Apply generously 15 minutes before sun exposure
- Mineral sunscreen works by creating a physical barrier on top of the skin to reflect and scatter UV rays. Because the ingredients stay on top of the skin, a white cast can be perceived if not applied correctly.
- To help the formula blend into the skin, work in small sections. Apply a dime-size amount into the palm of your hands and rub them together. Then apply to one area of the body at a time. Rub well until the lightweight formula is no longer visible.
- Reapply:
• After 80 minutes of swimming or sweating
• Immediately after towel drying
• At least every 2 hours - Sun Protection Measures: read back of packaging
Recommended for:
- All skin types
- Sensitive skin
- For face and body
The Skin Cancer Foundation recommends this product as an effective aid in the prevention of sun-induced damage to the skin, including sunburn and possibly premature aging. When used regularly in the prescribed manner, this product may also help reduce the potential risk of skin cancer due to overexposure to sunlight.

best for my Type 1 rosacea
This is the only sunscreen I can use, and I love it! I am sure to put it on at least 15 mins before I put on makeup. It’s actually very soothing, doesn’t bother my eyes, and lasts a long time.

Love-Hate Relationship
OK, let's get to the PROs:
1. Great for people who wear contacts or who have sensitive eyes as this won't burn them. 2. Does not break out or irritate my sensitive skin. 3. Offers great sun protection 4. Water resistant for nearly 80 minutes, making it perfect for a beach or pool day.
Now here are the CONs:
1. Difficult to rub in, so I use LRP spring water to help glide it over skin 2. Leaves a white cast if you apply it liberally; therefore, apply it in very small, pea-size amounts in layers to avoid ghost face. 3. Would not wear under make up, especially if you have dry skin since it mattifies it even more. 4. The value for the money.
Overall, it's not a bad product but I can't say I'm in love with it either. Jury is still out on this one.

It’s perfect for sensitive skin! It’s the only kind of sunscreen I have found that doesn’t make my daughter breakout in hives or swell up!!

DO NOT RECOMMEND
Horrible, horrible white cast. And I am a very very pale person and it still leaves a awful white cast. Will NOT be repurchasing. Two of my friends of color tried it and it had a BLUE cast on their skin. Just awful. The only good thing I can say about it is that it doesn’t break me out.

Love this sunscreen!
I have sensitive, mature skin that needs maximum protection that doesn't irritate my skin. This sunscreen is perfect! It has a higher percentage of zinc which is calming, yet it doesn't leave a white cast -- after applying, any white cast disappears in a few minutes. I also like that it has antioxidants to help combat free radicals. Thank you, La Roche-Posay!
