[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This sunscreen is a must-have for anyone looking for a product that provides both sun protection and antioxidant benefits. Its super formula is lightweight and not greasy at all, making it easy to apply and comfortable to wear under makeup or on its own. The best part is that it doubles as a skincare product, helping to brighten and even out the complexion while protecting the skin from harmful UV rays. It also has a subtle, pleasant scent that isn't overpowering.

I live in a part of the USA where the sun doesn’t shine as much during the winter. I also thought it was being marketed for darker skin types. Thought it was a moisturizer instead of sun block. My mistake, should have read the fine print.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this sunscreen! I use it daily with the Mela B3 serum. The texture is smooth and creamy, not sticky. It doesn’t have an offensive scent nor is the scent super artificial like some sunscreens. La Roche Posay’s products are always a hit-never a miss!
Good sunscreen for normal skin

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great product but since I have oily skin it does make my face look more shinier. It does have great sun protection and packaging is great. Scent does not bother me much.

Right after I applied it , it is sticky but it dries out. Im not a big fan of shiny face. It depends on your preference. I applied makeup and my face looks i guess shiny or glowing.
1 reply from La Roche-Posay Product Expert team - 4 months ago
Hello there Daniela! We appreciate you trying the Mela-B3 UV Face Sunscreen SPF 30 and sharing your feedback. You're right, the finish of a sunscreen can be a matter of personal preference. Some people prefer a matte look, while others like a dewy or glowing finish. It sounds like the Mela-B3 sunscreen might provide more of a radiant or luminous finish, which, under makeup, can sometimes appear shiny depending on your makeup products and application technique. If you prefer a more matte look under makeup, you might consider trying a different La Roche-Posay sunscreen. We offer a variety of formulas, including some with mattifying properties, that might be a better fit for your preferences. You can explore these options on our website or consult with a skincare professional for personalized recommendations. They can help you find the ideal sunscreen that provides the protection you need while complementing your makeup beautifully.
i highly recommend it really

Regardless how I use this sunscreen (even just after small serum), it won't absort into my skin and product gritty on my face and I have to wash my face again and use another sunscreen. Horrible. This company should be aware of this problem and somehow need to reformulate this.
1 reply from Consumer Care Center team - 5 months ago
Hello gababo! We understand your frustration with the Mela-B3 UV Daily Moisturizer SPF 30 not absorbing into your skin and leaving a gritty feeling. It's definitely not the experience we want for our customers, and we appreciate you sharing your feedback. We know how important it is for sunscreen to apply smoothly and comfortably, and we’ll pass your comments along to the La Roche-Posay team. This type of feedback is invaluable for product development and helps us understand where improvements can be made. While some products might interact differently with individual skin types, the gritty texture you describe isn't typical. If you have additional details about your skincare routine or the specific serum you used, please share them with us.

I finished an entire bottle. I used it on my face, neck and chest. i like how easy it goes on. There is no white cast. I have had no new breakouts. It does not bother my eyes at all. I have some discoloration & am prone to inflammation, and I do feel like this has been helpful in evening out my skin tone. my skin looks and feels healthy and moisturized. I absolutely have to put a translucent powder on (after giving it 5 to 10 minutes time on my face) because it leaves me very shiny. But I like how moisturizing it is. A little translucent powder just takes away the extra shine and the little greasiness. Dr Idriss (YouTube) recommended this product.

Hello Jose! We appreciate your feedback on the Mela B3 UV Daily Moisturizer! It's great that you're enjoying the product overall.
