Reviews For La Roche-Posay Anthelios 50 Mineral Ultra Light Sunscreen Fluid SPF 50
Not my fave but a solid option for many people
It's okay. Definitely still a little bit of a white cast when you use the full 1/4 teaspoon amount for face, it lessens after it's "set" but still there. And I'm a very pale person. I find the white cast pretty annoying with blending it into my hairline, too--makes me look like I have gray hair. Also have found I have to be careful with which moisturizer I apply beforehand as I've had a lot of "pilling" happen with some combinations. Still, I like how matte the finish is and I think it would be a good option maybe for a very pale person who prefers to use a mineral product. It has that nice upside of a mineral sunscreen in that you can put it really close around your eyes and not feel any irritation!

It’s ok
Not a bad sunscreen but does leave a white cast on my darker skin tone. It is very light though and non greasy.

Great sun protection
This mineral based sunscreen works. It's also environment friendly.

Works great for sun protection
One year ago I underwent MOHS surgery and plastic surgery repair to the nose for basal cell carcinoma. Since then, keeping 50 spf on, is paramount. With a scar I’m finding out also how to keep minimum clogging in those pores around the nose, and this product is working well for my sun protection and skin care. It doesn’t clog up, it’s very fluid, and while it may deliver a tad white case, I offset that with a light touch of mineral powder or sometimes I’ll mix in a bit of tinted sunscreen. My skin is porcelain so most tinted spf products are too dark. I will likely repurchase this product which my MOHS surgeon recommended.

Very lightweight
I love how lightweight this is for a mineral spf. It does leave a bit of a cast and is a little streaky which is why I'm not giving 5 stars but I still like it.

Nice but peals
I really do like this sunscreen. I have used it for about 2 weeks and so far so good. Only 4 stars because if you don’t immediately rub it in, it starts to peal.

Go to for my face
Had been using this brand for years on my face. I think last version I had was either +40 or +45. This updated version is a little thicker but does the job well. Did not experience any break outs and am happy with this product.

A bit greasy
Still on the lookout for a sunscreen. I found it a bit greasy by the end of the day. Didn't break me out but left my face way too oily with a slight white cast.

Great sun protection that wears pretty well
I like this sunscreen from La Roche Posay because it doesn't sting my eyes or my skin. I tried the tinted version, and it was a bit dark for my complexion. This is minimally whitening, if at all, when blended in. I definitely need moisturizer under it, as with a lot of sunscreens I've used to facilitate smooth blending. It did gather a bit around my sunglasses when I sweat a bit yesterday, so it's not one of those sunscreens that wear like iron.Reapplication during prolonged exposure is always recommended. It seems like solid protection to me. The only thing I've noticed is a tiny bit of a warm/slight stinging feeling after I use tretinoin. I don't know what's in it that could be causing that, as I don't experience it with all sunscreens. For that reason, I give it 4 stars.

Great, high protection sunscreen. It's matte in finish, and not moisturizing. Perfect for summer. I use moisturizer underneath in winter.

Feels great on my face.
This sunscreen feels so light and not greasy. I wear it every day and my skin feels soft and silky. I always dreaded putting sunscreen on my face but no more.

Best of this brand Ive tried so far but does leave white sheen.
I do not agree that it is greasy.....doesnt cause me to break out, very effective, just a good thing I put makeup over it and like that I don't have to wait 15 min to do so.

Good Price for a Quality Product
La Roche-Posay Anthelios 50 is an effective mineral sunscreen that leaves a subtle satin finish to the skin. Be careful not to use too much as this will definitely leave a white film on the skin, like all mineral sunscreens do. Bottle is small, but this is a benefit as it is easy to carry or pack and the contents are long lasting.

Really love it!!
So far, I really love this sunscreen. I have always been a huge fan of La Roche- Posay after discovering them last year and must say this new mineral sunscreen is superb! First, I have very oily skin and am prone to get very large painful cystic acne pimples so I am always afraid of something clogging my pores. I don’t wear makeup, or moisturizer and I can’t tell you how wonderful this stuff feels on my skin. It does not leave a lot of white on my skin, and it does not make my skin oilier then it already is. I really love the texture and the feel of this sunscreen. I can’t tell you if it makes me break out since I have just started to use it, but I have come to trust this brand for minimal break-outs (I have come to accept that I will always have cystic acne no matter what I do). Anyway, a GREAT product and I am so glad that it is mineral. The only reason I don’t give it full stars is because this product needs to be cruelty free.
