Blemish care with a light tint that evens out redness and marks
La Roche-Posay Effaclar Duo+M Unifying Tinted Care is a tinted anti-blemish moisturizer for oily and acne-prone skin, including sensitive skin. It contains Phylobioma, developed with microbiome science to target the bacteria linked to breakouts, plus salicylic acid, LHA and zinc to unclog pores and control shine. Procerad and niacinamide help fade the red and brown marks left by old spots. It hydrates for 24 hours with a matte finish, while the sheer tint evens out the complexion.
The texture
A light gel-cream with a sheer tint that blends into the skin and leaves a matte, natural finish. It feels fresh and does not clog or feel heavy.
Who it suits
- Oily and acne-prone skin with blackheads and spots
- Skin with red or brown marks after breakouts
- Anyone who wants light coverage instead of foundation
- Two shades: Light and Medium
Worth knowing before you buy: the tint is sheer, so it will not fully cover active spots, and the formula contains fragrance. For the evening or a no-tint option, choose the untinted Effaclar Duo+M.
How long one tube lasts
Used every morning on the whole face, a 40ml tube lasts around 6 to 8 weeks.
