Amazon is selling a popular skincare product that is perfect for all year round but is a must have during summer. The L’Oreal Paris Revitalift Clinical SPF would normally cost £19.99 on the Amazon website, but shoppers can currently get the product for just £10, that is 50% its original price.

Skincare experts and dermatologists have long shared the need to use SPF in your daily skincare routine but that need is heightened when the UV rays are as strong as they have been the past couple of days. You wouldn’t go out in nearly 30 degree heat without putting sun cream on your arms and legs so why would your face be any different.

And while there are many different SPF options on the market designed specifically for your face, this L'Oréal one has become popular among shoppers.

Amazon describes the SPF as being able to provide ‘long UVA and very high SPF50+ protection’ helped by the daily broad-spectrum filters it has. And while it's not advertised as an anti-ageing product it can also help reduce ‘dark spots, wrinkles and uneven skin tones’ all signs of ageing caused by UV rays.”

Regardless of the price, this product seems to be popular with shoppers no matter what their skin type.

One shopper who loved that the product doesn’t leave white marks said: “This product is as good or better than more expensive branded ones that I was previously using. Blends into skin and does not leave any white marks. I put it on after moisturising.”

Another happy customer who claimed it was a ‘great product’ wrote: “Great product. This cream goes on super easily, great coverage, you really don’t need a lot. Most importantly for me is that it does not go greasy throughout the day. The best moisturiser I’ve used.”

A third satisfied customer penned: “Feels great like a face lift and you can put your makeup on without disturbing it . Very good buy and came well packed.”

And a fourth shared: “Great sunscreen protection for my face. I use it after I moisturise but before my makeup and it absorbs well and doesn't leave any white residue nor does it make my makeup slide off by the end of day. There is a faint smell typical with sunscreens so if you want something fragrant free this isn't for you. But if you don't mind that smell and want good protection that isn't too expensive I would recommend it.”

Some shoppers weren't as happy with the product, with one saying: "This literally brought me out in hives all round my neck, and the skin on my face was bright red and burning. Face and neck were also intensely itchy. Even with antihistamines it took over 24 hours to settle and left me with lots of tiny spots."

And a second shared: "Smell is so strong it gave me a headache and feels like chemicals on the skin."

If you’re looking for a new SPF to try this summer, one that has been highly recommended by some skincare influencers on TikTok is the B. Protect Defence Sun Cream SPF50 being sold for £14.99 in Superdrug. Developed by skincare experts this product also leaves no white cast after application and has all the ideal active ingredients that’ll ‘deliver visible results’.
