Very high sun protection that also works on dark spots
La Roche-Posay Anthelios UVMune 400 Anti-Dark Spots Fluid SPF50+ is a facial sunscreen made for skin with hyperpigmentation and dark spots. It combines very high protection, including Mexoryl 400 against ultra-long UVA rays up to 400nm, with Melasyl, a patented ingredient that intercepts excess melanin before it settles in the skin. Used daily, it helps fade the look of existing spots and prevents new ones, with results shown across all skin types and tones. Netlock technology forms an even film that resists water, sweat and sand.
The texture
An ultra-light fluid that absorbs in seconds, with no white cast and no greasy film. It sits well under makeup and is tested to limit eye stinging.
Who it suits
- Dark spots, sun spots and uneven skin tone
- Melasma-prone skin that needs strict daily protection
- All skin types and all skin tones
- Anyone who wants one step for protection and tone
Worth knowing before you buy: the formula contains denatured alcohol, which gives the quick, dry finish; very dry skin may prefer the UVMune 400 Hydrating Cream. Pigmentation needs daily use and reapplication to show results.
How long one bottle lasts
At the recommended amount, about a teaspoon for face and neck, a 50ml bottle lasts roughly six weeks of daily use, closer to four if you reapply through the day.
