Good, basic high SPF day moisturiser

9 replies

Can anyone recommend a good day moisturiser with a high SPF? I tend to switch between Boots Protect & Perfect (SPF 15) & Oil of Olay (the 7 signs of ageing one, SPF 15) but am considering splurging on the Clarins double serum. I had a 7 day trial of it and was amazed at how fab my skin looked/felt but I need to cut a cost elsewhere to justify buying it so thought I could maybe make do with a cheaper moisturiser - preferably one with a higher SPF? Thanks.

I like Avene Hydrance which is SPF20 - comes in light and rich formulas, around £14 but usually in Boots 3 for 2.

I bought this is France and during this really hot sunny weather I have not had to reapply at all.

its really light and moisturising

I mean reapply during the day.

I have been using a serum underneath as usual. Lancome Genefique, which is amazing!

I am using La Roche Posay tinted SPF 50 and nothing is getting through it! I normally get hyperpigmentation on my cheek and although I have been out all week in the sun, there is no sign of the pigmentation, I have put Chanel vitaluminiere makeup over it when I was working and it didn't even look heavy. I will be wearing it all the time!

I like the vitamin c one from Body Shop, SPF 30.

Another La Roche Posay user here. The tinted one seems to dark/orangey for me though, it is stopping me from getting my usual summer tan so I need a milky white one! Will use it up and get the non-tinted version. Love LRP.

Thanks! Will google LRP as never heard of it.
