Lotus Herbals Anti Tan SPF 30 Sunscreen Ingredients

What I like about Lotus Herbals Anti tan Sunblock SPF 30 :

  • I like the consistency of this sunblock. It has a little runny consistency so it gets absorbed quickly without leaving any whitish cast behind. It does not feel heavy on skin at all.
  • This does not make my face sweaty after applying.
  • Smells pretty decent, just like all Lotus sunscreens.
  • I use it even on my body an it gets absorbed very quickly.
  • Comes in a flip top cap tube so it is easier to carry around.

What I don’t like about Lotus Herbals Anti Tan Sunblock SPF 30

  • It completely fails as a sunscreen / sunblock or an anti tan sunblock. Apply this 20 minutes before stepping out in the sun and comeback with a full tan. :pissedoff: . Although I have to say that it does protect me fromΒ  sunburns but when it comes to protection from sun tan- a complete failure for me.

Other than this I have had no issues with this sunblock. I did not pick this up for skin lightening. The shop keeper did not have a stock of any other sunscreen that day so I got this. It did not work for me at all. Everytime I have used this and gone out in sun, I have come back with such a bad tan. I almost finished using it on days when i know I don’t have to step out much.

It may be a decent product for winters but for summers, I don’t think I am ever going back for this one.

  1. Hawwwwww..how come it didn’t work for sun protection????er…I bought the Lotus Anti-tan block of SPF 40 with carrots something like that and it works wonderfully well for me..I didn’t even get any redness, forget the tan under scorching sun for hours…and its consistency is also very very thick..How come it is soo runny on your hand?????????? 😯 😯 😯 😯 😯 😯 😯 😯

    1. The only problem with the one I have is that it smells very bad..like burnt plastic or burnt rubber!! 😐 😐 😐 Otherwise, it is very very effective…

      1. Cali I know which you’re talking about…it was quite thick and sticky. I used to use that when I used to go for swimming cos it was the waterproof one. but i think it was the berry one I used, not the carrot one. Give the spray one a try. Its SPF 50 and the consistency is quite runny but it is the best sunscreen I’ve used in terms of protection!!

    2. I really like that PSF 40 one cali. It has that little tint also no.. used to wok great for my skin. i got the SPF 50 spray . it’s quite nice and light. :))

      1. hmmmm…The carrot one is a little sticky while applying, but it just vanishes off within seconds giving a matte finish..so me likes it!! πŸ˜€ πŸ˜€ I tried searching for spray here…couldn’t find it!! πŸ™ The reason why I ended up with that SPF 40 one..though no regrets…khikhikhi..That SA said there are no Lotus sprays mam..and I said :loser: go and check your company’s catalogue thoroughly before stating your dumb opinions …. πŸ˜› πŸ˜› πŸ˜›

        1. Correction she said – “Lotus doesn’t produce any sprays mam, probably you are finding it for some other brand” :spank: :spank: :spank: :spank: :spank: :spank: :spank: :spank: I hate their smugness!!!

                1. oh ya i also reme seeing spray from neutrogena…but the bottle was too small and cost too high 😐
                  @cali – i will go and recheck….

  2. This is the first time am reading a bad review on a lotus sunscreen..I have always loved them..However I dont think this would suit me as I use their gels that are perfect for my skin

  3. Hey, I am sorry it did not work for your πŸ™
    I feel the Neutrogena one is very good. The only thing is that most of the time I forget to put in on. Thankfully my Neutrogena Moisturiser has 15 spf.

  4. Always had a good experience with Lotus sunscreens..this is the first time I’m hearing that it didn’t work! I’ve used 3-in-matte and I loved it. More recently picked up the spray one SPF 50 and it is AWESOME!! I went to Water Kingdom in that -> 4-5 hours in the sun in chlorinated water and I did not get tanned at all.
    @Rati : I got Aroma magic mineral glow scrub at Beauty Centre, Khar. I’ve used it twice now and it is so great! Made my skin really soft and supple.

    1. ankita me too love the 3 in 1 wali sunscreen and i got spf 50 spray lovveeeeeee :happydance: :happydance: :happydance: :happydance: :happydance:

      1. Picked up NYX jumbo eye pencils in Milk, Yogurt and Yellow πŸ˜€ A NYX sheer gloss which I’ve just reviewed on my blog. Then little bit stuff from Colorbar (lip liner, nail paint and a lipstick) and then 2 pigments from VOV (olive green and copper) !! I’m in :inlove: with NYX !!

        1. uu r soo luck ankita :yahoo: :yahoo: ..no NYX in delhi.. :(( :(( .i think for us we can order NYX frm cherryculture ryt.. ?:) ?:)

        2. which lipstick from colorbar? πŸ˜€ and ther eis vov also at beauty centre? hocome i did not see? 😐 ok, me coming to bombay again this month or the next simply for beauty centre :toothygrin:

      1. Hi Swati, Anks is another lady here at IMBB. I’m just Ankita. Which product reviews are you looking for..now I’m confused cos I’ve mentioned a lot of stuff above! πŸ˜›

        1. hehehe.. πŸ˜› Soii Ankita. :silly: .I actually want a Review on 3-in-matte Sunscreen, is it the same which is spray one & SPF 50 .. :))

  5. Very Bad Results na.. :spank: :spank:
    i have bought this one last year & applied only 3-4 times & it sticks like anything. :pumpkin: :pumpkin: . till now it is lying waste in my Almira.. :spank: :spank: :spank:

  6. very true rati…..my experience was same πŸ™ but now m using Lakme sun block with spf 30 & m fully satisfied.. :-* :-*

  7. So I am going to stcik to my SPF 40 waala Lotus sunscreen ,which does stain my clothes and even my dry cleaner cant take out those stains,but its the best sunscreen I could find out for that price πŸ˜€

    Oh good morning :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo:

      1. Gooooood Morninggggg Cali..slept nicely after so many days :toothygrin: :toothygrin: :toothygrin: :toothygrin: :toothygrin:

          Can’t complain though… part and parcel of IMBB.

            1. Cali, kyun meri sukhi shaadi par najar laga rahi ho :tongue:

              It’s not only uploading entries but keeping track of votes, checking if each button is working properly and all..

              Anyhow, Shweta seems to be a clearcut winner of $200 saree so far.. 😐

            2. If they call sanjeev at late nights..Rati would be all ready with belen na:toothygrin: :toothygrin: :toothygrin: :toothygrin: :toothygrin: :toothygrin:

                1. OMG!! Contest entry 17 naa!! :hypnotized: :hypnotized: :hypnotized: :hypnotized: :hypnotized: :hypnotized: :hypnotized: :hypnotized: :hypnotized: :hypnotized: :hypnotized: Me just sawwww!!!

                    1. I also saw,she is indeed very popular…so many votes..I dont even have that much friends on facebook and twitter πŸ˜› πŸ˜›

  8. :waytogo: rati..rati even i tan very badly ..espcially my arms get soo tanned.. :weep: :weep: n i m using this new LAKME sunscreen range ( forgetting its name πŸ˜• )..but no good it is doin to my skin..can u recommend a good sun screen ( not tooo priceyy plz..m on budget nwrdays :-/ :-/ ) :(( :((

    1. Preeti you can try the spray one from Lotus. It has SPF 50. My arms get tanned too and I used the spray one and I did not get tanned at all. I’ve also used Vaseline lightening triple sunscreen body lotion and it works well too. For the face, Lotus 3-in-1 matte or spray one is quite good.

      1. :thanks: :thanks: ankita.n a big hug :highfive: :highfive:
        ans sanjeevji – kya baat hai..aaj tho one liners maare ja rahe haii.. πŸ˜‰ but an advice is always welcum.. :thanks: sanjeev jii :))

        i cannot apply a sunscreen .. i have a feeling ki i will die of asphyxia if i do .. 😐 😐 😐

        1. Nainaa..you try that Lotus 3 in 1 with spf 40..have you tried that ? Its completely non greasy and looks like a tinted moisturizer..Okay wait I think you have tried that,you said it left stains on your clothes too 😐 😐 😐
