Review: La Roche-Posay Anthelios XL Extreme Face Fluid SPF 50+

Hola!
With all the heat and sun we have going on at the moment, sun screen on the face is a must! I haven't heard much about this product yet and I just bought this product (another haul coming soon...) and I believe it is quite new, so I thought I'd do a quick review on it.


It has quite a thin consistency, which is nice for a sunscreen, as I hate the thick oily ones that feel like they will never sink in...

The product sinks in easily and relatively quickly - I like to leave it 5 mins to sink in properly before applying my foundation, so I don't risk moving it around or removing it while I'm applying my foundation. I wear this product under my foundation every day that I know I will spend some time outside.

Originally the product was labelled SPF 60 however due to new European laws, SPF can no longer be labelled as above 50, so they've labelled it as SPF 50+. So for a facial SPF, knowing it has high protection, I feel safe in the sun. Oh and also, it doesn't break me out... WIN. Sold yet?

You can get this product on offer at Boots for £12.37 (25% off - usual price £16.50), which I think is an alright amount to pay for a facial SPF and sometimes it is even in the 3 for 2 offer.

What's your favourite facial sunscreen? Let know in the comments!
