Product summary

We believe that "La Roche-Posay - Anthelios Dermo-Kids SPF50+ Smooth Lotion" 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 contains good moisturizing ingredients and can double as a hydrating day cream. Like all broad-spectrum sunscreens, this product has an anti-aging benefit.

Sunscreen filters

This sunscreen uses a mixture of both mineral and organic (so-called "chemical") UV filters. Here are the organic filters this product uses: avobenzone, mexoryl xl, octisalate and octocrylene. As for the mineral filters, this sunscreen uses titanium dioxide.
