Product summary

We believe that "La Roche-Posay - Anthelios Sun Protection SPF30+ Milk" can provide reliable sun protection based on the ingredients listed. We love that it can protect from both UVA and UVB rays (not all sunscreens with SPF ratings give UVA protection. UVA rays do not cause sunburn, but still damage our skin and lead to early aging).

It also works as a moisturizer, so you do not have to use an additional hydrating product. Like all broad-spectrum sunscreens, this product helps prevent early signs of aging.

Sunscreen filters

This sunscreen uses so-called "chemical", or organic UV filters (organic simply means that their molecules contain atoms of carbon). These filters typically give good sun protection and rarely leave a white cast, but they can be irritating for sensitive skin. Here are the exact UV filters in this sunscreen: tinosorb s 3.00% - 3.70%, avobenzone 1.10% - 1.40%, uvinul a plus 0.35% - 0.60%, mexoryl xl 0.30% - 0.60%, uvinul t 2.00% - 2.40% and terephthalylidene dicamphor sulfonic acid 0.30% - 0.50%.
