Alternatives to La Roche Posay SPF30

I have been using the shaker bottle for years exclusively in the summer due to sensitive skin - it’s the only one that does not burn. Buts it’s £20 now and no 3 for 2.

Has anyone found a good budget alternative, non-stinging?

Following as I enjoyed my la Roche posay factor 50 for daily SPF but similarly wincing at prices.

I use the Garnier Ambre Solarie one they do a cream and one like the LRP that you have mentioned. https://www.boots.com/ambre-solaire-ultra-light-sensitive-face-fluid-spf50plus-40ml-10274049

Second this ... excellent price point, absorbs nicely but feels lovely and moisturising. Make up sits happily on top too. I also like the fact it's sunscreen first and foremost too.

Because I use retinal at night I use either a Boots Ingredients or Pai Vit C serum applied first, let that absorb a few moments then garnier on top. Lovely and simple.

Escentual have an offer on LRP at the moment.

I love Soltan baby spf50 roll on sun block. I wear it running and it doesn’t run and I don’t burn. It’s usually 2 for a 5er. Disclaimer, I don’t wear make up in the day but if you give it a min it’s not sticky or tacky. I’ve very sensitive skin.
love ambre Solaire too but just for general sun wear

It's not SPF50 but I like the Cerave facial SPF moisturiser a lot

Bodi sands facial one is lovely. Good testing too as it’s Australian:)

withlotsoflove · 09/01/2024 11:04

Also the one @Ilovelemonandsugarpancakes mentioned :)

Nivea shine control sfp 50 is brilliant and only £7.50 on amazon or tesco, highly recommend 👌

I use Bondi sands facial factor 50, I have very sensitive skin, broken capillaries on my cheeks, so I apply DrJart green cream & this changes colour to a beige tone, stopped using foundation now.. I always get compliments how dewy my skin looks 😊
