Description
La Roche-Posay Effaclar Duo+ SPF 30 is a daytime care for oily and blemish-prone skin, including skin that is also sensitive. It combines blemish care and SPF 30 sun protection in one light, non-greasy cream.
Niacinamide, salicylic acid, LHA and zinc PCA help reduce the look of blemishes, unclog pores and refine texture, while UVA and UVB filters help protect against the sun exposure that can make post-blemish marks look darker.
Key benefits
- Blemish care and SPF 30 in one step
- Helps reduce the look of blemishes and marks
- Helps unclog pores and refine texture
- Non-comedogenic and a good make-up base
How to use
- Apply a pea-sized amount to the whole face in the morning after cleansing, avoiding the eye area.
- Reapply every 2 hours, and straight after swimming, sweating or towel drying. Using less product lowers the level of protection.
- Use enough to cover the face evenly. A thin layer gives less protection.
Pairs well with
- La Roche-Posay Effaclar Foaming Gel: a purifying foaming gel to cleanse first.
- La Roche-Posay Effaclar Ultra Micellar Water: a no-rinse cleanser for removing sunscreen at night.
- La Roche-Posay Effaclar Ultra Concentrated Serum: an exfoliating serum for the evening.
