Strict Safety Standards Backed by DermatologistsHigh UVB rays mainly cause burning, while UVA rays directly contribute to skin aging. This damage is not always visible to the naked eye, but when exposed to ultraviolet light you can see it underneath your skin. All of our Anthelios sunscreens are dermatologist recommended and tested for optimal performance. |

Love this product, the scent does not make me feel sick as I am going through chemo.My skin is super sensitive and the sunscreen is blocking those rays allowing me to enjoy the sunshine withought the harmful effects. A bit pricey, but it does the promised effect.

I was on the hunt for a new sunscreen and a friend referred this product to me so I purchased it. Doesn’t leave a white cast or grease slick on my fave. It’s very light weight and the smell is very tolerable. It is ever so lightly scented but hey it’s sunscreen. I will absolutely repurchase this in the future.

I can’t believe I actually found a Tinosorb S sunscreen in Canada! That and Mexoryl XL are the newer sunscreen filters that’s much more lightweight and photostable! Needless to say this protects me very well. Zero white cast whatsoever since it’s all chemical filters. I’m on tretinoin so sunscreen is very serious business for me lol. Every other sunscreens that claim to have Mexoryl XL or Tinosorb S in Canada are either having very little of them so that the older filters are still the main filters, or have physical filters, which dries my skin out really bad and makes me very oily by afternoon. The bottle is pretty tiny though so I wish it’s cheaper. Also, the one shipped to me only has 1 year expiry left, but by law, since sunscreens are regulated as drugs, they should be good for 3 years from manufacturing date, so keep that in mind if you wanna stock up.

This sunscreen was suggested by my surgeon after having skin cancer surgery on my face. I was hesitant because it’s a VERY small bottle and on the pricey side. Turns out it’s well worth every penny. This brand is amazing, the sun protection is great but best of all it’s VERY VERY VERY light weight and feels like nothing at all on your skin. It goes on clear and feels amazing on your skin. I love that it doesn’t smell like sunscreen which is very off putting for me. It also doesn’t drip into your eyes like most sunscreen does. It’ comes out like a liquid so you only need VERY little!!!! I will continue to use this on my face every single day.

This product although expensive is the best sunscreen lotion I have tried. No greasy feel at all. I reserve this product for my face and use a les expensive product for arms and legs. Handy size container to have in your ski jacket.

I have been using this particular sunscreen for a couple of years now. I find it goes on well and does protect me from sunburn and also helps stop those dreaded sunspots that I get with aging. Highly recommend this product. I use about 1/2 tsp each time on my face in the morning after my moisturizer.

I love this sunscreen so much. It is a little pricey for its size, it is pretty small but it is good quality. Very liquidy and doesn’t leave a white cast, I always wear it under my makeup and it never caused a problem. Also, it is small but goes a long way. I’ve had it for 2-3 months and I almost wear it every day.

Wow! After just trying this sunscreen today, I can say it checks off all the boxes: oil-free, non-scented, lightweight, and ABSOLUTELY NO PILLING. So many facial sunscreens have an annoying tendency to pill, which is a nuisance if you want to apply makeup afterwards. This particular sunscreen is perfect in every way. Will definitely purchase again!
