“As a person of color who is used to rubbing in sunscreens for five minutes only to be left with a weird, purple-white cast all over my skin, I was very happy to see my regular skin tone reemerge only a few seconds after applying this”

Much like Crawford, who was valedictorian of her Illinois high school, La Roche-Posay’s Melt-In Sunscreen Milk is an overachiever. While other sunscreens are getting dinged for not living up to their stated SPF potential, this one has earned a perfect score from Consumer Reports not just once, but five years in a row.
I think I’d call the finish “matte” and “kinda smooth” rather than “velvety.” But that’s fine with me because I’m forever paranoid about the sun and its wrath, and a little texture is a reassuring reminder that yes, I have sunscreen on, and yes, this formula is water-resistant. In short, this has a winning combo of two things: a non-annoying application process and a comfortingly high SPF. I’d gladly slather it on for the rest of the summer.
I like that it’s SPF 60 and rubs in quickly without leaving white traces all over your skin. It’s also not sticky. The only downside is that it’s liquid enough that if you open the bottle while it’s facing down, it drips onto the floor. Otherwise, it’s a perfectly good sunscreen that functions and smells the way sunscreen should.
My current sunscreen, La Prairie’s Protection Veil Sunscreen SPF 50, smells elegant and not all like a sunscreen. Frankly that’s what I want from all my sun protection: a way to stay safe without being constantly reminded that the sun is trying to destroy us. I’ll keep using the La Poche-Rosay, though. I’ll be the pale one slathering it on at the beach under an umbrella.
