I have worn this Vichy Lotion with SPF 45 for a couple of days now. I wanted to see how well it works by using a paw print stamp on my chest, back and no paws on my nose. I think it worked on my nose because that was the only part of my face that did not turn pink in the sun. As for the four paw marks, I did not see any difference between my own slightly pink skin. I was hoping for a sunless white paw. So, I really don't know whether it worked or not. All indicators say that it didn't work for me. The lotion smells like Elmer's white glue which I am not fond of. Now, I understand that it was suppose to be odourless. There definitely is an odour to the lotion. The texture is like a medium thick cream in an orange tube. It is good for all skin types, even for sensitive skin. It soaks in quickly. It doesn't feel tacky at all. It is water resistant. It supposedly works for up to 2 hrs. For a tube of 5.0 oz for $28.50 purchased at Shoppers a Drug Mart. I would suggest this lotion to anyone who needs it. For myself. Not too happy with the end results.
