I really thought I was going to like this because I love the brand but I really don’t, my face is so itchy and I can’t rub it because then I start peeling white and it makes me look so dry on the face as if I was having dry patches, it makes my face get extremely red, I use their eczema soothing relief cream everyday but this sunscreen is not it

Leaves skin very powdery and makes my skin super flaky. The picture did not really capture how flaky it made my skin. I have combination skin. Leaves hands so powdery and pills. The milk in version of this worked better for me.

Living in a humid area with oily to combination skin, my face finally does not feel greasy and doesn't leave a white cast with my brown skin! Perfect for 12hr shifts.

This is the best facial sunscreen I’ve ever tried. I have very sensitive skin and am acne prone. I’ve used this for the past 2 summers and have never broken out or had an itchy reaction. Please don’t stop making this!

I know a lot of people have issues with it flaking. My suggestion is to put it on in front of a mirror, so that you can see all of the areas you're applying it on. Over-rubbing it is going to cause it to flake. I also suggestion applying it in downward strokes with pressure on your face instead of rubbing up & down. That should also help with flaking. I love this sunscreen. I have oily skin and I sweat easily. Other facial sunscreans leave a greasy feeling (and an odor). This one is truly dry-touch and does not have an odor. My biggest issue is the white cast on my eyebrows and around the temples where my hairline is. My face (medium brown skin) is fine, but my black eyebrows & black hair make the cast more evident, especially if I start sweating (mad my eyebrows are a sweat hotspot). Should this occur, use a damp wash cloth to dab (not rub/wipe) those areas.

They changed the formula and now it does clump and do not protect you from sun. I loved the previous formula which was from 2023.

SO MESSY. why’s there so much white chalk everywhere!?
1 reply from La Roche-Posay Product Expert team - 1 month ago
Hi there J! We're sorry to hear you're experiencing a white cast with our Anthelios Clear Skin Dry Touch Sunscreen SPF 60. While this sunscreen is formulated to be non-greasy and dry-touch, application technique can sometimes affect the final appearance. We recommend applying a small amount of product at a time and rubbing it in thoroughly until fully absorbed. For those particularly sensitive to white cast, our Anthelios Melt-In Sunscreen Milk SPF 60 might be a better option, as it offers a sheerer finish.

I bought this for a trip and regretted it after trying it. It dries really clumpy and it looks like I have flakes all over my face. Adding moisturizer before OR after does not help. Putting it on without moisturizer does not help. Something is wrong with this formula…

Hello christytea! At La Roche-Posay, we're sorry to hear about your experience with our Anthelios Clear Skin Oil Free Sunscreen SPF 60.

In love with this. Goes on easily and instantly has a soft, dry feeling, almost like velvet. Along with the oil control moisturizer my skin hasn't felt this smooth and hydrated nor been this clear in years. Highly recommended, especially if you have oilier skin.
Love it!

This sunscreen really dries out my skin. It doesn’t cause breakouts but I can only use it once and then I have to take a long break or my skin gets terribly dry. Even after one use, it feels a little raw.

GAVE ME A HORRIBLE RASH

This gave me a horrible rash! I used this product on my arms, hands, ears, face, and neck before going for a run. After doing this three days in a row I developed and increasingly severe rash on all those areas. It started small but after the third day i could barely move my hands because my knuckles were so badly affeced. I've never had an issue in the past with sunscreen sensitivity so I was SHOCKED! I've also used some of their other products and never had an issue. Something in this sunscreen is no good.

It consistently gives me a rash on my cheeks and around my mouth no matter where I apply it on my face or how little I apply. I would 100% not recommend this for people with sensitive skin, I would opt for a lighter sunscreen. Super disappointed because I love this brand’s lotion.
