Eucerin Sun Allergy Protect Gel Cream
- Very high sun protection for face and body
- Advanced Spectral Technology: UVA/UVB protection and HEVIS light defense
- UV light is the main cause of sun-induced skin damage, but high-energy visible (HEVIS) light can also induce free radicals that cause further stress to skin.
Eucerin Sun Allergy Protect Gel-Cream SPF 50+ is a face and body sunscreen specially developed for sun-sensitive skin and skin prone to sun allergies such as Polymorphus Light Eruption (PLE).
The sunscreen for sun allergies offers very high UV protection: the UVA and UVB filters meet the high standards defined by Cosmetics Europe and the levels of UVA protection are higher than the EU recommendation.
Eucerin’s Advanced Spectral Technology combines these broadband and photostable UVA/UVB filters with Licochalcone A to neutralize free radicals caused by UV and HEVIS light It also contains Alpha-Glycosylrutin which helps to prevent sun-induced allergies such as PLE.Unperfumed, to minimize the risk of skin irritation, the non-greasy and non-sticky gel-cream absorbs quickly and is water-resistant.
Clinical and dermatological studies

My son suffers terrible with prickly heat when on holiday. I did a lot of research and this was on of the best products. I have to say I wasn’t convinced it would work but it worked smoothly.. I would highly recommend.

Great stuff ,can’t use everything , not all sun creams are the same ,I’m able to go out in the sun more by using it.

What else can I say. I’ve suffered for years with what I believed was prickly heat. Every summer holiday ruined by a nasty rash all down the back of my legs that was sore and unsightly. I tried everything over the years and the only thing that would help would be a prescribed steroid cream to treat the rash after it appeared.
I only discovered this sunscreen recently after learning about PLE and it’s common misdiagnosis as prickly heat. So decided to give it a go.
The result – I’ve just returned from 10 days in Jamaica and used this product every day. Not a single spot in sight!! It’s a miracle cream. I was amazed!! I won’t go on any holiday without it from now on.
Finally I can enjoy a break. Don’t hesitate. It works.

I have suffered with Prickly heat for years and dreaded going on holiday because of the misery it causes I couldn’t go in the sun sea or even the pool, not even sitting under an umbrella kept it away it was always on my mind waiting for the 1st itch to start,
Iv tried every remedy but nothing kept this allergy away, a colleague suggested another brand but on reading the reviews I came across this and so glad I did, I have just returned from Mallorca 30cc of heat I put the cream on every morning before leaving the apartment and adding more if I felt burning, this has been one of the best breaks I have been on I went into the sea at least 3 times every day but on a lilo making sure not to get my chest wet as I didn’t want to push my luck, And I have come home with a nice tan and not one spot not one itch I could wear a dress going back to work instead of hiding under a long sleeved top, this may not work for everyone but believe me its worth a try, hopefully it works again next year.

This product is a game changer, I have PLO and have suffered for years. I came across this product by accident and after reading the reviews thought I’d give it a go, you need to put this on about 15 mins before clothing as it can stain whites however if you have suffered with a sun skin condition this is a small price to pay, great product would highly recommend.

I’d recommend rubbing this between your finger tips for a little bit to evaporate some of the alcohol or it can be a little bit stingy. Otherwise no issues on sensitive a skin, chemical so no cast but it doesn’t have an unpleasant smell. The finish can be quite shiny but it’s not greasy or oily. Lays well with BB cream though I haven’t tested it with a full foundation.
