Swati Asks:
I have a Fair & normal to Dry skin. I am 24 years of age and my skin gets burnt vey easily while I am out in the sun. I travel by my own conveyence so I directly get in contact with sun. My hands and face get tanned very soon whenever I am in the sun for an hour. I haven’t applied sunscreen so far and I am confused to choose one. Some one suggested me to go for Avon’s SPF 40 whereas someone else suggested for Oriflame’s containing SPF 50. Avon is costing me INR 250/- whereas oriflame is costing me INR 790/-, as there’s a huge difference in money so I am highly confused. Garnier, Lotus, TBS or any other will help or not. I am really Looking for a great suggestion.

I would suggest sungrace spf40+… neutrogena is also good…. but whatever you buy, be sure to check for pa+++ and whether it is non comedogenic…

Hi Swati,
My dermatologist recommended me this Sunscreen its called Melagard-SPF 50+ from Piramal Healthcare. Its non-comedogenic and water resistant too. And its not half as expensive as Avon or Oriflame. Best part is it spreads very easily and you need a very little quantity. Also gives you a dewy look. Be cautious not to use plenty of it else it might look greasy.
Hi Mitra…
:thanks: sooOoo muCh but i’ve neVer hEard abOut Melagard ?:) .. nd ya.. you are right :haanji: ,.,, we need tO use so less quantity of Sunscreens coz it beComes little greesY..

Even I love Lotus sunscreen. I use the matte effect one. It gets absorbed so quicky. 8)

Lotus has many varieties, try the spray one which is very watery, it disappears in 10 seconds or the matte effect one.. I have used both and does not make my skin greasy.. I have a combination skin π There is a product called Sunban which is spf 100 you get it in chemist stores. That is the one that cricketers use.. Its great in water during swimming.. But somehow I would not suggest it for daily use..
:thanks: so much jaish,,, this is miGht where i get ConfuSed,,, π π

Lotus has my vote too…. I use the SPF 40 matte one in summers as my skin tends to get oily, while the spray one in winters….. they r really gud and both r below Rs 250…. so u can check them out for sure :inlove: :inlove: :jiggy1: :jiggy1: :jiggy1: :jiggy2: :jiggy2: :jiggy2: :jiggy2: :jiggy2:

hi l am sidra i have a fair n normal skin tone n it affect by sun very easily whenever i go in sun it affect my skin l dont know which sunblock to use l have tried many creams but it doesnt work pllz plzz guide me right sunblock which not affect my skin
manali for pigmentation use alovera and neem. u can make paste of these in mixie and can preserve it for a week in freeze. it is definitely going to work. 100% surity. and ya apply the mixture for two to three hours. u can apply it nt and remove it after few hours. use it for 2-3 months. u will definitely get clear skin. no pigmentation.
