Eight sunscreen trends you should know – part 1
As someone who is deeply obsessed with sunscreen, this two part series on sunscreen is long overdue
Product review
Avene Day Protector UV EX SPF30 PA+++
I sometimes wonder why sunscreen makers need to make multiple sunscreens, when they have a perfect product already. Let’s find out.
Product review
Innisfree Intensive Anti Pollution Sunscreen SPF50+ PA++++
Despite all the fuss around K-beauty, this is one of the few South Korean sunscreens that make it to Nykaa’s bestseller list.
Product review
Clinique Broad Spectrum SPF 50 Sunscreen
One of the final products on Nykaa’s best selling sunscreens is Clinique’s SPF 50, which appears to be the same formula that is also sold in the USA.
Product review
Kiehl’s Super Fluid UV Defense Mineral Sunscreen SPF 50 PA+++
This is Kiehl’s Mineral sunscreen which provides extensive broad spectrum coverage. Its the same/similar formulation to the Made in USA Kiehl offering. Should you buy it?
Product review
Kiehl’s Ultra-Light Daily UV Defense SPF 50 PA++++ with Anti-Pollution
I had almost forgotten this product was a sunscreen as I was so taken by its self-professed “anti-pollution” benefits.
Product review
L’Oreal Paris UV Perfect Super Aqua Essence SPF 50+ PA++++ Long UVA
This is an inexpensive sunscreen (Rs 515 for 30ml). It’s interesting, that Nykaa’s bestselling sunscreens are a combination of low and high priced items.
Product review
Neutrogena Sheer Zinc Dry Touch Sunscreen SPF50+
A 21.6% Zinc Oxide formulation is (literally) the American way to make sunscreen. I’m not surprised this product finds itself on Nykaa’s bestselling sunscreens.
Product review
Clinique SPF 50 UVA/UVB Mineral Sunscreen Fluid For Face
This is an American brand sunscreen that is on average, 30 percent cheaper in the USA. As much as possible, it makes sense to buy this outside India.
Product review
Lotus Herbals Safe Sun Daily Multi-Function Sunblock SPF 70 PA+++
Lotus Herbals make cheap sunscreens. Having reviewed over 80% of Lotus Herbals’ sunscreen range last year, I am intrigued to see if absolutely anything about this sunscreen brand has changed.
Product review
Lakme Sun Expert SPF 50 PA+++ Ultra Matte Lotion Sunscreen
This is a revised formulation of Lakme’s sunscreen and it does merit a separate review. Its also in Nykaa’s top 20 best selling sunscreens.
Product review
Plum Green Tea Day-Light Sunscreen Gel SPF 35 PA+++
If you are wondering what this is doing on Nykaa’s bestselling sunscreen list – don’t worry, you are not the only one!
Product review
L’Oreal Paris UV Perfect Even Complexion SPF 50+
I reviewed this sunscreen last year and given its on Nykaa’s bestseller list I do feel compelled to revisit this product.
Product review
Dermalogica Dynamic Skin Recovery SPF 50
This sunscreen is one of the most expensive sunscreens on Nykaa’s bestselling sunscreen list. Should you fork out additional cash for this?
Product review
Lakme Peach Milk Moisturiser SPF 24 PA++
The price of this sunscreen is INR 350 for 200ml, which makes this one of the cheapest sunscreens on Nykaa’s bestselling sunscreen list.
Product review
Kiehl’s Ultra Light Daily UV Defense Aqua Gel SPF 50 PA++++
This is an expensive sunscreen but it is still within Nykaa’s bestseller list. This indicates to me, that Indians are willing to pay a high price if they believe a sunscreen works and/or is branded.
Product review
Ponds White Beauty Sun Protection Day Cream SPF 30
This product is a whitening cream that is also a sunscreen. In fact its a top-selling sunscreen on Nykaa. Does its dual function make a difference?
