Great idea in theory but...Beads up under Make-up
I purchased mine from Walgreen's and may have gotten old product but will be returning this. The texture was great, felt good on the skin, and then I tried to apply my make up. As I smoothed on my makeup over this sunscreen primer it beaded up on my face like pills on a cheap sweater. I have used my foundation for many years with many different moisturizers, primers, and sunscreens and never had a problem. I washed my face and it tried again without using the Active C10 underneath and there was no improvement. Will return this product and go back to the Anthelios Melt In, which I love and a primer from another company.

A finished look with this primer
I only tried this anti-aging primer with sunscreen because it was part of an anti-aging promo package on the LaRoche-Posay website. Had no idea how much I'd prefer it to all my other sunscreen products. This is a very different type of sunscreen--it goes on feeling a bit like a night cream, but there is no whiteness. It is so moisturizing and almost gives you the look of wearing some kind of makeup. Actually, since I started my LaRoche-Posay regimen, my skin looks radiant enough that I really don't have a use for foundation. And I'm 52! The only facial cosmetics I need now are my concealer (for dark circles and sunspots) and blush which I can apply right over this sunscreen.

I am so disappointed
I bought this because the free sample I got in the Target beauty box was amazing. The coverage was light and it felt great on the skin. However, the full sized product is awful. I'm not sure if I got a bad batch, but it's super thick and makes my skin look gray. When I walked out of the bathroom, my husband asked me if I was sick. I tried putting a foundation over it, and it made it look worse. I ended up washing my face (this stuff is so hard to get off) and vowing to never use it again. I ignorantly threw away the box before I tried the product since I had tried a sample of it before. So now I'm stuck with a $40 tube of junk.

Needs a better delivery system
The product works well but after you have used less than a third of the tube it becomes impossible to get out. You squeeze hard and the cap pops off. It is clumpy and then hard to spread on your face. I end up cutting the tube to get to the product and then wrapping it up to keep moisture in. I think the solution is to make the product in a looser consistency in a larger and softer container. I have no trouble getting product out of the metal tubes (Redermic face cream) so maybe that is the solution. And, yes, it is very expensive for the small amount you actually get.

Amazing product, does exactly what it claims!
Years of sunworshiping took a very bad toll. My face is scarred, sundamaged, uneven. Embarassed I'd cover with makeup. Now that I'm taking proper care of my skin, I'm using this daily for my face/neck. IMMEDIATE RESULTS can be seen, even on my sundamaged skin. I thought I'd have to layer makeup over this but I don't. I never expected such exceptional results. I will be ordering this on a very regular basis so I never run out. My only concern is, as I learn to use it, it seems like the container may not last too long. I don't care though, it's worth the price for what benefits it provides!

I think wearing an spf is very very important not only for beautiful skin but also to protect my skin from cancer. I wear it everyday now, paranoid about the damage I did to my skin as a teenage working at tanning salons entire teenage life. Being smart tan certified I know a lot about products and spfs. This product is very versatile, it works as a moisturizer, a primer, has anti-aging benefits and protects my skin for the sun. It does a beautiful job blurring the imperfections in my skin and it doesnt feel slimy and gritty. It also works miracles for smoothing my pores. This is a wonderful product!

Great Protection, Terrible to Use
I can't fault the the protection, I was out in the bright sun for hours without issue. And my skin did feel smooth, but applying this product is awful! When you squeeze it out of the tube the product beads up in a ball. You can actually mold it like clay. I had to rub it in the my face for several minutes and it still didn't feel right. And it is incredibly difficult to get off. I washed my face three times and it still didn't feel clean. I even used my clarisonic brush and it turned all the bristles a disgusting shade of brown (I wasn't wearing any makeup over it). The sun protection might be great but there has to be a product that's just as effective and more pleasant to use.

Very disappointing
Used Athelios SX for a couple of years but decided to try this product for the higher SPF and promise of 'instant correction.' It's way too thick and difficult to squeeze out of the tube even when it's brand new -- a jar would be much better. Customer service suggested warming it in the hand to soften it before applying, but I think I'll wind up throwing out quite a bit of it when I can no longer squeeze it out, and it's too expensive to do that. I like the product but the packaging is enough to make me not purchase it again.
