About Anthelios SX

Anthelios SX is a sunscreen offering the recently approved sun filter Mexoryl SX. Anthelios SX is manufactured by LaRoche-Posay, the company that also makes prescription-only Biomedic skin anti-aging treatments. Anthelios SX claims to provide maximum sun protection via 3 sun filters: Octocrylene (to address UVB rays), Parsol 1789 (to address long UVA rays), and Mexoryl SX (to address the short-range UVA rays that, according to the Anthelios site, many other sunscreens currently miss between the long UVA and UVB ranges of rays). Anthelios SX also touts 24-hour hydration that’s PABA-free, fragrance-free, non-greasy, allergy-tested and suitable for sensitive skin.

To get the best UVA/UVB coverage, you need Zinc Oxide. Mexoryl has linited UVA coverage.

This is a good everyday sunscreen containing Mexoryl which provides UVA protection without the white pasty look that you can get with zinc oxide or titanium dioxide.. Unfortunately, only SPF 15 is currently available in the US. Look for higher SPF coming out soon.


amazing sun blockage without skin breakouts Anthelios SX with Mexoroxyl MX was worth it
