Common questions

Is La Roche-Posay Anthelios Age Correct SPF50+ fragrance-free?

No. Fragrance (listed as "Parfum") is the 31st of 31 ingredients.

Does La Roche-Posay Anthelios Age Correct SPF50+ contain alcohol?

No drying alcohol (alcohol denat. or ethanol) is listed. It does contain stearyl alcohol: a fatty alcohol that softens and thickens the formula and isn't drying.

Is La Roche-Posay Anthelios Age Correct SPF50+ safe for fungal acne?

It contains 2 ingredients that fungal-acne (Malassezia) guides usually avoid: fatty-acid esters & glycerides (peg-100 stearate, glyceryl stearate). How much they matter depends on the amount and the rest of the formula. The evidence comes mainly from lab studies of yeast growth, and fungal acne needs a diagnosis from a GP or dermatologist.
