La Roche-Posay Mela B3 UV Daily is a lightweight daily face moisturizer with SPF 30 that protects against UVA/UVB exposure while helping to reduce the look of dark spots and uneven texture.

This formula pairs La Roche-Posay’s new Melasyl™ complex with 5% niacinamide to deliver sun protection plus corrective benefits in one travel-friendly tube. Designed to sit comfortably under makeup and blend without a white cast, the 40ml moisturizer is meant for everyday use to help preserve skin tone and texture while shielding skin from routine sun exposure.

How does this product protect skin during daily sun exposure?

The Mela B3 UV Daily contains broad-spectrum SPF 30 ingredients that filter UVA and UVB rays to lower immediate sunburn risk and help minimize the visible effects of regular sun exposure. It’s formulated to be lightweight so it layers well with other skincare and makeup.

• Broad-spectrum SPF 30 for UVA/UVB coverage
• No white cast, suitable for all skin tones
• Non-greasy, fast-absorbing texture for daily wear
• Oxybenzone-free formulation

What corrective benefits does Melasyl™ plus 5% niacinamide provide?

Melasyl™ is La Roche-Posay’s targeted ingredient blend formulated to support a more even-looking complexion when combined with a clinically tested 5% niacinamide concentration. Together they target discoloration, rough texture and the visible signs of aging associated with sun damage.

• Helps reduce the appearance of dark spots and uneven tone
• Smoother-looking texture and diminished fine lines over time
• Supports radiance when used consistently
• Can be layered with a dark spot serum for enhanced results

Will this sunscreen leave my skin looking chalky or interfere with makeup?

No — the formula is crafted to blend seamlessly across a range of skin tones and stays non-chalky after application. Because it’s lightweight and absorbs quickly, it creates a suitable base for foundation or tinted products without pilling.

• Specifically formulated to avoid white cast
• Fast-absorbing finish under makeup
• Travel-size tube fits into daily kits and bags
• Reapply every two hours for consistent protection

How should I use this moisturizer in my daily routine?

Apply as the final step of your morning skincare routine before makeup. Dispense evenly across the face and neck, allow a moment to set, and reapply throughout the day when exposed to sunlight for ongoing protection and corrective action.

• Use each morning after cleansing and serums
• Apply liberally to face and neck; rub in fully
• Reapply at least every two hours when outdoors
• Pair with Mela B3 Dark Spot Serum for deeper spot correction
