New formula for the UVMUNE 400 oil control fluid

La Roche Posay quietly reformulated their “UVMUNE400 oil control fluid” sunscreen. They got rid of Octisalate (thank God!) and (I assume) increased the amount of silica. So hopefully the finish is more matte now. I haven’t tried it yet. There’s also a fragrance free version now.
Unfortunately, the new formula is not fungal acne safe anymore.
They also updated the packaging for the “anti dark spots” sunscreen but there are no changes in the formula.
Anyone tried the new one?

More Lidl products, with INCI this time.

Found these in Iasi, Romania. I only bought the azelaic acid one.

Edit: Can you guys see all 15 pictures?

We finally have a sun stick with Mexoryl 400.

I’ve been using it as a lip SPF (it’s a just a tiny bit bitter but way better than most lip SPFs) and for reapplying around my eye area where I’m prone to dark spots. Surprisingly not too shiny. It’s so tiny though :(

SVR SUN SECURE Aqua Fluid SPF50+

To me this is very similar to Bioderma Ultra Fluid AR+. Same consistency and finish on the skin. Unlike Bioderma this has only new gen UV filters and a better price (considering it’s 50ml vs 40ml for Bioderma). It does have added fragrance though, a pretty mild scent I would say.

Bioderma Photoderm AR Anti-Redness SPF50+

To me, this is just the original Photoderm XDefense Ultra-Fluid SPF50+ but without the fragrance. The ingredient list is also very similar. I like it but 15 euros for 40ml is a little too much, especially considering now we have the Geek&Gorgeous SPF for a lower price and almost twice the amount.

This is an average EU sunscreen for a very affordable price. Feels somewhat heavy, slightly greasy and it leaves a shiny finish, although I've seen way worse. It has a slight chemical scent that I haven't smelled in other sunscreens, not a fan of it.
My skin is not too happy with me trying all these sunscreens haha :)

This has an okeish texture, not too thick, but the finish is pretty shiny. It contains mostly new gen UV filters and it’s only 6 euros. It’s probably not water resistant. Fragrance and alcohol free. It’s not fungal acne safe. Overall I prefer their other new release, the Calm Skin+ SPF50+.
