My experience with Lacto Calamine Sun Shield Daily Use Sunscreen (Oily to Normal Skin)

The sunscreen comes in a white tube with yellow cap. The tube comes in a white cardboard. I kind of loved the packaging. It looks cute and simple with white and yellow colors. The sunscreen is white in color and as soon as I smelled it, it reminded me of Ayur Sunscreen. Yes, it smells somewhat like that, not completely. You only need a small amount and it spreads smoothly on face. Well this was all good about the product. Let me tell you about all the problems now.

The product leaves a whitish cast and although it is made for oily skin, it made my skin feel super oily. I have super oily skin and I even in this weather if I apply something heavy, my skin break out. After applying it, I had to clear my face with tissue because my face was looking like I had applied oil over it. And it made me sweat so much. I hated it. When I left my house in the sun, I was sweating so much over my forehead. Also, because of greasy nature it kind of made me look dark in color. So summing my experience for you:

Positives for Lacto Calamine Sun Shield Daily Use Sunscreen (Oily to Normal Skin):

• Reasonably priced
• Good SPF coverage
• Available easily
• Only small amount needed
• Moisturizes well

Negative for Lacto Calamine Sun Shield Daily Use Sunscreen (Oily to Normal Skin):

• Leaves a whitish cast
• Makes my oily skin super oily post use. So it is definitely not for people who have super oily skin like me
• Makes me look dark
• The product makes me sweat heavily

Will I Repurchase or recommend Lacto Calamine Sun Shield Daily Use Sunscreen (Oily to Normal Skin)?
I will not buy it again and will look for a light sunscreen. It says it is made for oily skin but it did not suit my oily skin. Might be it will suit Normal/ combination skin girls. But oily skin girls should skip it.

IMBB rating
2.5/5

      I have yet to watch it. Have an exam on sunday so will watch post that (provided exam goes well) I use lacto calamine classic moisturizer. nothing suits me better than that. You can give it a try.. I do not have dry skin so I need very light moisturizer but I guess that’s not the case with you. You can post your query via Ask IMBB and you will get knowledge of good products as per your skin 🙂
