Jovees Broad Spectrum Sun Defense Cream SPF 50 PA+++ Review

Skin tone: Fair
Skin type: Normal to oily

Hello people,
Sunscreens are something that I cannot survive without. Even though they are meant to be used throughout the year, I skip them during the cloudy days. I can’t remember using them in winter 😀 But now, with the scorching sun and the unbearable heat, I just can’t afford to miss the sunscreen. I bought this one just for a change. So let’s get to the review.

My Take on Jovees Broad Spectrum Sun Defense Cream SPF 50 PA+++:

The packaging is simple and convenient to use as it is in tube form. The yellow colored flip cap is sturdy thus allowing it to be carried around.

This one has a sun protection factor of 50, which is effective enough for the current weather here. The cream is white in color and has a weird smell to it, which I dislike. The smell lingers for quite a while which is a bit bothersome. The consistency is a bit thicker than I’d expected and it takes a while to get absorbed completely. But once it is absorbed it feels light. It needs some rubbing to penetrate the skin.

I apply it 15 minutes prior to stepping out in the sun. Once I used it on my face and it made me sweat like anything, more than the usual sweating because of the current weather here. So I don’t use it on my face. Well it does protect the skin from further sun damage and tanning but it does nothing to the existing one. It claims of making the skin fairer which is false as I have not seen any such result as such. Lasting power I can say is around 4 hours and because of the perspiration it wears off. It is not water-resistant I think. As a sunscreen it plays its role well. It is also not drying for my normal skin. The finish is dewy. Except for the weird smell, I do not have any qualms as such.

Would I Recommend/Repurchase Jovees Broad Spectrum Sun Defense Cream SPF 50 PA+++?
For sunscreens, I prefer either Lotus Herbals or Nivea. But you can get this if you need a change; it’s quite an average product. I may not get it again because of the weird smell.
