Having said that, the mexoryl-based sunscreens are more effective than the Neutrogena, so are probably worth the extra cost.Bear in mind that UV-A causes cancer, but not sunburn. A sunscreen that protects against sunburn, is not an effective anti-cancer agent unless it also protects against UV-A. Most sunscreens that claim UV-A protection only provided it for half an hour or so. Mexoryl, on the other hand, lasts several hours.

I have been using the "Anthelios Fluide Extreme" for years after discovering it in Paris, either picking it up when I traveled to the EU or importing at ridiculous cost.Annoying and expensive, but it's simply the best sunscreen out there for daily use -light, easy to use, lasts all day, plus cuts out the need for morning moisturizer.
What a delight to find that they have found a US importer!The US formula is slightly different, and I think a bit better, as it leave my skin more matte.However, now that it is winter, I find the formula dries me out a bit, so I will either import the slightly greasier EU formula or try one of the other Anthelios products available here.
One complaint -no mexoryl in this one (their press releases are very specific about this.)I can't find out anything about what "cell-ox" actually is.But I do trust that there's some UVA protection.This suncreen can stain your clothing yellow.I accidentally had some drip on to my jeans and another time on my shirt.Both times I wiped the suncreen off right away.When I washed my clothes there was a bright yellow stain from the suncreen which does not come out easily.Two machine and three to four hand washes later (where the fabric was scrubbed together) the stainmight be gone or will only be faded depending on the amount of sunscreen/type of fabric.

My dermatologist recommended this product to me some years ago. I am 69, still look like 52 (in the face and neck area, anyway--LOL.) The fluid is ultra light and absorbs immediately so I can put on make up right away. I use it everywhere (even eyelids) but most on face, neck, chest/bosom, hands and arms. Dr. recommended that I use it each and every day even if indoors in a closet on a rainy day as one is constantly being bombarded by UVA and UVB radiation, which is both harmful and ages skin. Also, I find it is very economical as a little goes a long way. If one needs additional moisture, it combines easily with moisturizing lotions. It's also water resistant and still retains its SPF even after 40 minutes of perspiring in a gym or swimming.
