Hope it works
I take one of these pills everyday in the summer and 2-3 if I'm going to be spending the day in the sun. I am not sure if they work but I think they are worth a try. If there was more studies/conclusive evidence I would give them 5 stars but I don't read about these too often.

HELIOCARE
I was advised by my dermolotogist to take these sun protection pills because I used Refissa and Obagi Blender, for my wrinkles and Melasma, although I put sunblock, when I sweat, while taking a walk is not enough, Taking the HELIOCARE Sun Protection pill will build my resistance to the sun, And I see the difference on my skin, the wrinkles are much smoother and my Melasma has faded that I don't need to cover with the concealer and I feel free not worrying whether my sunscreen is protecting my face, I am writing just to share with everyone, Much Love!

Dermatologist recommended
I started to take Heliocare a few months ago due to my dermatologist's recommendation. I am 55, suffer from melasma and calcinosis cutis. I have not noticed a difference in discolorations in my skin, but hope that it may help.

Heliocare Sunscreen Supplements
Reason for the 3 stars is how do you know that it is working? Well, Im being optimistic that Im getting added sun protection on top of my daily 50 SPF which provides me some added reassurance.

Love these pills!
Before I found HELIOCARE Sun Protection Pills, I would go out in the sun with sun protection on and burn easily and was left with a rash on my arms and face, that drove me to itching all the time. After taking HELIOCARE Sun Protection Pills, I can go out in the sun with sun protection on and I dont burn and the redness and rash has disappeared. I have no rash and no itching anymore. I would recommend this to anyone who has experienced what I have. It really works.

Fast results
Im an outdoorswoman and, no matter that I apply (and re-apply) a high SPF mineral sunscreen and always wear a wide-brimmed hat, I would come in with a few brown spots on my face after spending hours outside in our sunny climate. This product has made a difference to the point where I have recommended it many times. I quit last winter, thinking it wouldnt matter at that time of year, but noticed the spots returning within a couple of weeks, so now Im a year-round user. I do take a second pill midday, as recommended, if Im outside an extra-long time.

Great Sun Protection Product
I have taken HELIOCARE Sun Protection Pills for 8-10 years now. Whenever I go outdoor, I will sure take it. It is very convenient and it helps to prevent sunburn.

Heliocare Sun Protection
I have been using Heliocare sun protection pills for 4 years (besides using a sunscreen for my face). This has helped me to eliminate the chance of having a skin cancer on my face. It is easy to remember to take one pill every morning. Heliocare was recommended to me by my dermatologist.

It Helps!!!
I am a huge believer in sunscreen. Not sunscreen mixed in with your foundation because that is just pointless. As an esthetician, since 1995, when i studied the effect UVA and UVB rays had on the skin, oh I was using sunscreen and if my makeup looked a bit funky, I did not care (sunscreens have progressed so much since then--Thank God!!!). UVA (or, U Vil Age rays) destroy the dermis and starts within minutes of being in sun. Even in shade your exposed to the radiation from the sun. UVB (or U Vill Burn rays), may not penetrate as far as UVA but damage just the same. This stuff helps so much!!!! Even with sunscreen, makeup over it you cant reapply as often as necessary and this had made a HUGE difference in my life. Thank YOU!!!

Free Sample to Full Time User
Like many other reviewers here, a free sample years ago started a long-term, happy relationship with Heliocare. I take this capsule EVERY DAY- summer or winter. It is a great anti-oxidant, providing inside-out skin protection from damage caused by the sun!

Worth every penny!
Im 38, pale skinned and suffer from Melasma. Ive been using HELIOCARE for about 2 months now and have noticed a huge difference in my skin. Not only does it help with sun protection but my skin looks better, smoother, younger. Im hooked. If you have Melasma I really recommend using this in conjunction with Replenix sheer physical sunscreen SPF 50+ cream. Together they have made a world of a difference in fighting my Melasma.

Does it work?
I am giving this product 4 out of 5 stars because I dont have a way of evaluating their effectiveness. I have been taking them for 3 months so I hope they do work!! I love the idea of sun protection from the inside as well as topically, so my fingers are crossed. No side-effects and easy to take!

Immunity!!!!
I bought these for a plethora of reasons. My boyfriend went for his 10 day Hawaii(2nd home) visit and I couldnt take one more sunburn. Also, I love the antioxidant properties. Living in the deep south I need all the protection I can get, so from the inside out is a good feeling. Also, Im hoping to amp up my immune system. Cant a lady just be healthy?!

Good sun defense
After I tried my sample pack, I quickly ordered a bottle of the Heliocare pills. Its hard to know exactly if theyre working because I do apply sunscreen every day -- several times a day if Im out and about -- but I like knowing that Im doing everything I can to protect my skin. Taking these pills is giving me peace of mind so I do recommend! They are easy to swallow, too.

Not sure if it works!
I have been trying to tone down my sun exposure while taking these pills so it is hard to say if they work. I havent had any side effects from them which is good. They are easy to take which is nice. I have not noticed any improvement in my skin as far as anti-aging goes so it is difficult to say if these pills do anything.

skeptical, but...
I live in a coastal town and enjoy many outdoor activities, including running, biking, golf and of course, trips to the beach. This product has made a definite difference in the amount of color (aka tanning and sun damage) that I have gotten this season. I even have my husband taking it now ! Plan to continue !

Great Product!
I received the sample from LovelySkin and purchased a bottle shortly after. I live in TX, play tennis, and have extremely fair skin. More recently I have begun to get melasma on my face even though I wear layers of physical and chemical sunblocks. Was recently at the shore and got no sunburn or increase of melasma when using this product (took 1 in AM and another in afternoon). I usually burn when outside for long periods even with reapplying sunblock. Next test will be taking this pill to Mexico! I plan to take this pill on all days I play tennis.

Intrigued and want to continue taking
I have a tried a sample of this product a couple times now and certainly plan to buy a bottle (or three). The reviews are great and I spend a lot of time outside on my bike. I think anyone who is outdoors a lot needs to add any extra protection they can.
