Tinted, high-coverage sun care that protects against spots and blue light
Bioderma Photoderm M Clarifying Gel-Cream SPF50+ Light is a very high protection tinted sunscreen for normal to oily and sensitive skin prone to dark spots. It protects against UVA, UVB and blue light, while colour pigments even out the complexion with a high-coverage, matte finish in a light shade. Bioderma’s Sun Active Defense technology reinforces the skin’s own defences instead of simply adding more filters, and vitamin E supports protection against free radicals. A patented formula with glabridin helps regulate pigmentation to prevent spots, reduce their appearance and limit their return. The light, non-greasy gel-cream resists water, heat and humidity.
The texture
A fluid, non-sticky gel-cream with a powdery, matte finish. The light tint covers well and hides spots and redness, so it can replace foundation on sunny days. It is non-comedogenic and stays put through heat and humidity.
Who it suits
- Skin prone to sun spots and melasma-type patches
- Normal to oily skin that wants a matte finish
- Fair to light complexions
- Hot, humid climates and outdoor days
- Anyone who wants sun care and coverage in one step
Worth knowing before you buy: As a tinted, high-coverage cream, the light shade may look too pale on medium or darker skin; the golden shade suits those tones better. Reapply every 2 hours in the sun.
How long one tube lasts
Applied every morning to the face and reapplied once or twice on sunny days, the 40ml tube lasts about 3 to 4 weeks.
