Hi all,

I have decided to start a skin care regimen. I want to use la roche posay dry touch gel spf 50 as my sunscreen because it leaves me less oily. I have oily t-zone. It does leave a noticable white cast though. To mask this I though of using a powder bronzer, but does it interfere with the effeciveness of the sunscreen? Also do I have to choose a color darker than my natural skin color because the white cast of the sunscreen makes it less bronze/colored?

Does the bronzer make me look like I have make up on?

Also, If I have correctly researched, mexoryl xl and tinosorb (which are ingredients in my sunscreen) are photostable for up to 8 hours or more, can anyone confirm this?

thank you!

I've not used the la Roche you mention, are you sure it leaves a white cast?

As for bronzer, it shouldn't deactivate sunscreen. The tip to not having it look like makeup is to use a light touch and a really good brush. For whatever brand you pick, search for youtubes on how to apply properly.

Good for you on deciding to protect your skin.
