Hi Everyone,
I have used Lacto Calamine, Olay and Lakme ranges etc., My doubt is if i stay in AC then i dont have any problem however when i step out in Chennai weather (hot and humid), its sweating heavily and my face looks oilier. So i need to wipe my face completely or wash it with water, to avoid sweating further.
My skin type is a combination. Please do suggest me a good Tinted Moisturizer or any other cream which is suitable for chennai weather so that it doesnt sweat.
Thanks,
Shameema
I know of only two popular TMS available in Indian market – biotique and pond’s. both of them I dont think are quite effective for humid weather,. you may give lotus spf 40 sunscreen a try. it is tinted and matte. also, . you cna even buy the disposable ones keep a compact handy with you and you can blot your face many times during the day. make sure that you wash your face puff regularly. you can also purchase extra face powder puffs form the local cosmetic stores. 🙂
Thanks Rati 🙂
For you tips and also for posting my question O:)
I have recently started using Ponds Tinted moisturizer and I like it a lot. I also have combi/oily skin and though I work in AC but earlier but my face used to get oily in few hours but now it remains matt for easily 5 to 6 hours, also use a matt compact powder..it really makes a BIG difference..hope this helps :drunk:
:thumbsup:
Thanks Parita 🙂 i will try for sure
i am using Biotique currently and like it very much and I also recently bought the TBS Blotting papers so I use that during the day when my nose is especially shiny 🙂 using these 2 products helps me a lot..occasionally I will run a compact over my face once I am done with the blotting paper.
:thanks: aruna
i luv lotus spf 40 ………..amazing product
:thanks: shruti..
shameema….markal calamine is very good as a moisturiser….but it doesnt have sunscreen….wat i do is use markal calamine as a moisturiser & use either lotus matteffect sunscreen spf 40 over it…if I am going out….but when I am at home I use the ponds radiance powder which also contains sunscreen….& this really really works… :thumbsup:
I am going to buy Lotus SPF 40 sunscreen for sure..
:thanks:
lotus safe sun 3in one matte is the best
is this sunblock or sunscreen? i was checking online..saw mostly sunblocks
this is one is a suncreen.. i m also using the same.. an di m loving it… for its mattee finish..
Its a sunblock Aruna!!!
very confused now 🙂
I agree with you completely..
Its too difficult to manage this kind of skin :chewnails
And :thanks: for you suggestion
i checked lotus website. the full name is 3-in-1 Matte-Look Daily
Sunblock SPF 40
Thanks ..i could have done the same but just didnt ..shall buy this today 🙂
Hm..I’m not sure there are many good TMs in India..but you could use the Biotique or Ponds one,and keep a good compact of your choice and some of the TBS oil blotting sheets. 🙂
I think Clean & Clear also manufacture blotting papers. You could also try a good matte finish foundation if the TMs aren’t working for you.
And I can understand your pain.Even I have combination skin type,and I sweat so much that by the end of the day I’m just :chewnails :chewnails and hoping that I don’t look like I just ran a marathon. :methinks:
:thanks: for sharing

I am using Clinique’s TM and it is fabulous!
I have normal to oily skin and this weather makes it worse :yuck:
But clinique TM sets to a matte finish and keeps the oiliness at bay for about 4-5 hours for me, which I think is good enough :thumbsup:
:thanks: mehr
