France: La Roche-Posay
La Roche-Posay Anthelios Melt-in Milk Sunscreen SPF 60 ($36)

The history of La Roche-Posay dates back to the 14th century, when legend has it that a knight stopped at a French spring in La Roche Posay, France to quench his thirst. His horse reportedly suffered from eczema, but as soon as he immersed himself in the spring water, he was cured. This is where the brand’s dermatological story begins. The exclusive water has been used at La Roche-Posay’s Thermal Center with over 7500 patients visiting annually to experience the properties of the water. This French brand is backed by 90,000 dermatologists worldwide, recommended by over thousands of influencers, sold in over 50 countries and has racked up 14 and a half million global searches in the last year.

The brand’s products are known for their incredible cleansers, eczema products and sunscreen. The Melt-in Sunscreen SPF 60 contains an optimized combination of UVA and UVB filters chosen for their synergistic effect to deliver broad-spectrum protection. The key is that it is formulated with a reduced number of ingredients for optimal skin tolerance, making even the most sensitive of skin flock to this sunscreen.
