    Perfect for oily skin

    I just bought this last month and it blew my mind away. I have a very oily, sensitive, prone acne type of skin and this SPF just applied beautifully to my skin without any greasy residue or white cast reflection. I'm really impressed so I went to Chemistwarehouse and bought another two. It dries up very quickly and I haven't had any irritation or allergic reaction to it.

    My eyes were fine too, they usually water and get irritated by any sunscreen. It won my heart. I would highly recommend it to anyone who wants that holy grail of sunblock.

    Ideal For...:

    so disappointed

    I have very oily and acne prone skin and have recently started using a retinoid. I was told that sunscreen is super important when using retinoids so I did a massive search for one that would suit me. All the reviews pointed me towards this sunscreen which is super well rated and it did indeed sound like the sunscreen of my dreams.

    I purchased this when it was 30% and I am glad I did not pay full price. Let's start with the positives: the packaging is excellent, I love the pump and the actual bottle. The UV rating is great, seems to protect from everything I need it to.

    Now to the negatives: I pumped some on to my fingers and started spreading it immediately on my face after washing and moisturising. I was left absolutely horrified. It would stick to one area and become patchy no matter how fast I moved, it made me look like a ghost, it dried down and started flaking right away (mind you I have oily skin AND I moisturised). It made my pores look MASSIVE and irritated the crap out of my face. I was left with red, itchy and flaky skin. Suprisingly, it works perfectly fine on my neck which has normal skin. I will not repurchase.

    Sophisticated sun protection

    This sunscreen has one of the highest UVA & UVB protection ratings in the world, and I'm so pleased they've refined the formula to be even lighter than the other versions of Anthelios. Also kind to my dry, sensitive skin, with no discernable scent.

    Packaging is portable and has a pump to cleanly dispense the required 1/4 teaspoon (which is a bit much to just slather straight on so I find it helps to layer around face lightly). It dries down within 2 minutes, though sometimes if I don't wait long enough my makeup can pill over the top.

    This formula is so comfortable to wear daily and has super high SPF to keep your skin safe and wrinkle free! I will continue buying it despite being a bit pricier because I haven't found any other formula that wears so well under makeup and is truly matte on the skin once dry.

    Any Tips?: 
    Wait at least 2 minutes for the formula to sink into skin before applying makeup.
    Ideal For...: 
    Apply each morning before sun exposure, and the high SPF will get through the day. Convenient packaging that travels well in handbags for when top ups required (4hrs).
