Anthelios Mineral Sunscreen SPF 50 Gentle Lotion, Broad Spectrum SPF + Antioxidants, Face & Body Sunscreen, Titanium Dioxide & Zinc Oxide, Oxybenzone Free, Oil Free

I searched far and wide for a safe mineral-based sunscreen for pregnancy. I settled on this one and I was not disappointed. It saved my skin from a lot of sunburn this summer! As other reviewers mentioned, it is harder to rub into the skin and can leave a whiteish tint, but that’s a small price to pay for a pregnancy-safe option.

This is my MUST HAVE sunscreen. I've had almost every type of skin cancer (thankfully, caught early), so I NEED good sun protection, especially on my face. I have very fair skin. This product leaves a bit of a white cast, but after a short period of time, that white case is absorbed. The white cast of a mineral sunscreen might look chalky on a person with darker skin. The BEST thing about this sunscreen is I can put it on my eyelids and under my eyes, it doesn't irritate my eyes AT ALL. The other well-known sunscreen I used for a long time really made my eyes sting if a bit got into them. This is my favorite sunscreen of all time.

At 68 yrs of age, wish I had discovered this product earlier in my life. Having said that, better late than never. This excellent, premium product works wonders protecting and healing my ultra sensitive, rosacea-prone facial skin. The sunscreen applies with little effort given its silky smooth texture. I’ll be a regular user of this product in the future.

I’m used to La Roche-Posay’s chemical sunscreens, so this was my first time trying their mineral version. The texture is actually quite nice for a mineral formula. It spreads evenly and doesn’t feel gritty or chalky. That said, it does take a bit longer to fully absorb compared to chemical SPFs. I’m already very pale, and I still notice a slight white cast. It’s not extreme, but it’s there. To be fair, most mineral sunscreens tend to do this, especially those using zinc oxide and titanium dioxide. Interestingly, on my skin it almost behaves like a very light tinted sunscreen. It slightly blurs and softens the appearance of minor blemishes and redness, which I appreciate on minimal-makeup days. It provides broad-spectrum SPF 50 protection and feels gentle on sensitive skin. I haven’t experienced irritation, pilling, or breakouts. It layers reasonably well over moisturizer but benefits from being applied in thin, well-blended layers, which adds some time to my morning routine so it's a little inconvenient. Overall, it’s a solid mineral option with good protection. Just expect a bit more blending time and a subtle cast.

Very lightweight sunscreen! A little goes a long way! I was nervous to spend the money on this, but I’m glad I did! Doesn’t block my pores or cause any breakouts. Make sure you use very small amount and add to it as needed. I thought it was like normal sunscreen, so I put a lot and realized it was way too much for my face.

Great coverage that doesn’t feel greasy or heavy. Definitely goes on white but blends quickly into my very fair, sensitive skin. I’m so happy to have found a mineral sunscreen I can use in my daily routine!

It went on, looked, and felt like a mix of white, pasty, heavy paint mixed with glue. The white pasty paint look never went away, even after attempting to rub it into my face for several minutes and being outside for a few hours. It remained a sticky, white paste for a few hours, as it baked onto my skin. Finally, when I attempted to wash it off in the shower, it refused to come off. I had to wash my face several times with soap and eventually use my fingernails to scrub it off. I can give it one star because it did, indeed work as a sunscreen. But the white pasty paint - glue effect was not acceptable to me. Not sure why it got such great reviews from others, but I will be throwing this expensive bottle of paint paste away. Surely there must be better physical sunscreens than this.

Not moisturizing at all and leaves white cast

It is nice one, it is white on the skin, but ok with me as it covers my open pores.

Excelente producto. Llego súper bien, solo necesito ponerme poco para cubrir toda mi cara y deja mi cara cero grasosa.

Used it for the face. Very thick so you only need to use a small amount and it doesn't leave the face oily. No sunburn yet and my wife loves it too.

I use this sunscreen for my toddler who has very sensitive skin and it seems to work well. It does have a white cast though.

The item I received was too dry like a powder. It was impossible the skin to observe. I am not sure it is because of old product (made in 2022) or it was badly stored. I could not ask for refund because I opened it.
