We Indians dread to head out in summers, especially here in Delhi. Summers in India really turns up the heat. It is extremely hot and not possible for anyone to go out without a good sunblock.

Sunblock or Sunscreen is a product used to prevent the skin from Ultra Violet Radiations (UV Rays). The regular use of sunscreen may reduce the risk of skin cancer and other diseases associated with UV Rays.

So, today, I’m going to review one of the top ranking sunscreen-

My Take on the Product:


Packaging:

Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry-Touch sunblock comes in a white soft plastic tube with a blue screw cap. This makes the product to come out easily. All the essential details of the product like- ingredients, net weight, manufactured date, expiry date,etc. are clearly mentioned on the tube. I can easily carry it in my bag because of its travel-friendly packaging.



Fragrance:

It has a mild fresh lotion like scent which does not linger for too long.


Texture:

It is white in colour and has a thick and creamy consistency.


My Thoughts:

I have been using this sunscreen for a very long time. This is one of my favourite sunscreens that I can easily trust upon. It contains SPF 50+ and has a PA+++ formula which would protect your skin from harmful UVA and UVB rays. It gets absorbed very easily and does not feel heavy on skin. For oily skin peeps, this sunblock will not make your skin look greasy rather gives a dry touch finish to your skin without leaving a white cast, which is another yaayy. Another great point is that it is waterproof , so if you are going to dive into a pool or just chill and relax there in these hot summers, you don't have to think twice about its application. It stays on for good amount of time, at least for 4-5 hours. Also it is non- comedogenic which means it won't clog your pores. The only downside of this particular products is that it is not paraben free, although it says that it is PABA- Free, but actually it's not.



One should always apply a generous amount of sunscreen on their face and exposed body parts, 15-30 minutes before going out. May it be summers or winters or even rainy season, we all must apply sunblock having at least SPF 30. A good sunscreen is a must have product for your daily skincare routine.
