If you are a skin care enthusiast or even little interested in skin care, you would know how important sunscreen is. Sunscreen absorbs or reflects some of sun’s UV radiation thus protects the skin against sunburn and prevent skin cancer. Not only this, a 2013 study concluded that diligent use of sunscreen can also help to slow or temporarily prevent the development of wrinkles , dark spots and sagging skin. If you are not doing anything and just applying sunscreen regularly it can reverse the photoaging of the skin within 12 weeks. I have only started using sunscreen in my 30s. But you can save your skin by starting it early. Here are some of the sunscreens I used in last one year
This is the first sunscreen I used and is very good. Its hypoallergenic , won’t cause acne and is water and sweat resistant. What I didn’t like about it is its thickness. It makes your skin very sticky and face looks oily
You can get it for Rs 675 for 75gms @ amazon
Will I buy it again? Yes but not for outside use
This sunscreen is quite popular. Its SPF 50+ and is broad spectrum. It’s also very cheap and easily accessible in Indian Market. It isn’t too thick or make your skin look greasy. But I feel it ,not always but, somedays stings.
You can get it for Rs 200 for 30ml @ amazon
Will I buy it again? Yes, definitely
This one is a recent purchase and I did it without researching and hence got a very bad product. First the texture isn’t good , it has soapy feel and second it doesn’t get absorbed making your face white like a ghost.
I am only giving it one and half star thinking it atleast protects against sun damange.
You can get it on amazon but don’t
Will I buy it again? You really think there is a need to ask that?
This sunscreen apart from being very expensive, is very liquid-y. It quickly gets absorbed into the skin. Doesn’t feel thick or make the skin look oily.
You can get it for Rs 1663 for 50 ml @ amazon
Will I buy it again? Yes (for days when I go outside cebause expensive af)
This sunscreen has all my heart. It’s budget friendly , it has a creamy texture leaves no white cast. And it doesn’t sting like Neutrogena.
You can get it for Rs 556 from Reéquil
Will I buy it again? Yes already did
Have you used any of these? Or any other sunscreen which you liked ? Do let me know !
