Milky Sunscreen Fluid SPF50+

La Canopée's Fluide Solaire Lacté SPF50+ combines very high mineral sun protection with a nourishing, milky texture for face and body.

The milky fluid texture spreads easily and is suitable for sensitive and redness-prone skin. Next-generation zinc oxide protects without leaving a white cast, while karanja, licorice, and lotus provide antioxidant and soothing support for skin health. Olive and coconut oils nourish the skin, keeping it supple and comfortable in sun, wind, and water.

• Zinc oxide is a mineral sunscreen that reflects UV rays on the skin surface, acts immediately, and is very well tolerated. The latest generation of zinc oxide combines very high broad-spectrum protection with an almost invisible finish. The filter is photostable and remains stable under sunlight.
• Karanja extract acts as an antioxidant, supports protection against free radicals, and complements the mineral UV filter. For sun-exposed skin, karanja is especially beneficial because it reduces oxidative stress and provides additional support during UV-B exposure. 
• Licorice extract has soothing and antioxidant effects and helps reduce redness and sun-induced skin reactions. This helps maintain skin comfort during and after sun exposure—especially for sensitive or easily irritated skin.
• In sun care, lotus extract complements the protective effect with a nourishing antioxidant component and helps keep the skin more resilient. 
• Olive oil supplies the skin with nourishing lipids and smooths and nourishes through its emollient properties. The high content of fatty acids, including oleic acid, supports skin comfort and helps keep the skin supple.

The formula is suitable for all skin types, including sensitive, reactive, and redness-prone skin, as well as for pregnant women and children from 3 years old. Since the water- and sweat-resistant formula contains nourishing oil, the finish may initially appear slightly radiant depending on skin type; the shine settles after a few minutes. For combination or oily skin, the fluid can be lightly powdered and is also comfortable to wear under makeup.

FAQ

Is the Fluide Solaire Lacté SPF50+ a mineral sunscreen?
Yes. The formula protects with zinc oxide, a mineral UV filter of natural origin. La Canopée uses next-generation zinc oxide that reflects and scatters UVA and UVB rays on the skin surface. The filter is photostable and very well tolerated, even on sensitive or reactive skin.

Does the sunscreen protect against UVA and UVB rays?
Yes. Fluide Solaire Lacté SPF50+ offers very high protection against UVA and UVB rays. The measured SPF value is 66, and the measured UVA protection factor is 25.5. UVA rays are mainly associated with photoaging, UVB rays with sunburn. Both types of radiation can damage the skin.

What is the difference between SPF30 and SPF50+?
SPF30 offers high protection and is especially suitable for moderate sun exposure or skin already accustomed to the sun. SPF50+ offers very high protection and is the better choice for intense sun, fair or sensitive skin, and longer outdoor stays. La Canopée's SPF50+ version achieves a measured SPF of 66.

Does the mineral sunscreen leave a white cast?
No, the texture is designed not to leave a white film. La Canopée relies on next-generation zinc oxide and optimized dispersion of the filter. This keeps the finish invisible despite mineral UV protection.

Can the fluid appear shiny on the skin?
The formula is water-resistant and contains a nourishing oil phase. Depending on skin type, the finish may initially appear slightly radiant but settles after a few minutes. For combination or oily skin, the fluid can be lightly powdered.

Is the sunscreen suitable under makeup?
Yes. The liquid, invisible texture can be applied before makeup and serves as a smoothing, nourishing base. For oily or shine-prone skin, the finish can be mattified with some powder if needed.

For which skin types is the sun fluid suitable?
The fluid is suitable for all skin types, including sensitive, reactive, and redness-prone skin. Zinc oxide, licorice, and the plant actives support a pleasant skin feeling during sun exposure.

Is the sunscreen water-resistant?
Yes. The formula is water- and sweat-resistant. To maintain protection, the fluid should still be reapplied regularly, especially after swimming, sweating, or towel drying.

How should Fluide Solaire Lacté SPF50+ be applied correctly?
Apply generously to dry skin before sun exposure. For the face, apply as the last step of your skincare routine on face, neck, and décolleté. Reapply regularly, at least every two hours and after swimming, sweating, or towel drying. Do not forget ears, neck, and other sensitive areas.

Can the sunscreen be used on children and during pregnancy?
Yes. La Canopée's sun fluids are suitable for pregnant women and children from 3 years old. For young children, direct sun exposure should still be avoided as much as possible; clothing, sun hats, and shade remain the most important protective measures.
