أباي رويال يو في سكين ديفنس بمعامل حماية SPF 50 / PA++++

Not as good as it used to be

I used to be able to buy a smaller size tube of this product (the tube was a golden yellowy colour back then), and the product inself used to be a skin-tone coloured very light textured lotion, - and it was a really fabulous product. But now, it is sold in a white tube, and the product is also now whiter in colour and slightly thicker in texture, and it doesn't gve the same healthy looking "glow" on your face that the old product used to give. A big backward step! Not sure I will buy it again.

Expensive but it does work

I am outside a lot. I am 61. My neck probably say's 81. I usually use Soltan and Boot's children's 50+ now. I wanted something that would give me the 50+ protection but wouldn't leave a white caste. Decided to splash out on Guerlain's UVA 50+. At first I hated it. I applied a lot on my neck and my neck was very white with the cream. Tried to smear it in but it balled up. The next time, I applied less. That was better. It dries fairly quickly and if you try to smear it around after that, it balls, so I don't go over board with the amount. The plus side is that it works very well in blocking the sun. My neck now has a more smoother, softer feel, not paper dry and the sun damage that I had accumilated over the years looks less obvious. Another thing I can say about it is 10 years ago, I got a severe bout of shingles, I didn't know I had shingles until I went to the doctors about 2 weeks later as I had severe 'cold sores' to the right side of my face. I used cold sore cream on them and it cured it very quickly after that but I find that if I spend time in the sun, the areas where I had the 'cold sores' turn light brown. Brown spots basically. So I applied some of the 50+ cream on them a week ago, and where I had smeard it, the surround area is paler, so this sunscreen obviously works.
