Lotus Herbals UV Screen Matte Gel SPF 50 Review


Lotus Herbals has always been my favourite brand when it comes to sunscreens. They make the best sunscreens in the world. The one Iam sharing here is my HG sunscreen. Read on to know why.


Suitable for : Normal to Oily Skin

Price: Rs.225 for 50 grams

About the product:


Packaging:

It comes in this typical Lotus herbals sunscreen yellow plastic tube with a flip cap. It is available only in one size 50 grams.
It is very travel friendly.



Ingredients:

It does contain parabens but that has never affected my sensitive skin.


It is a transparent gel which spreads easily and is non- sticky. It has SPF 50 which is good even for extremely hot weather. I use it both indoors and outdoors and it does protect my skin alot. Since it is not tinted like the matte 3 in 1 sunscreen, I use it even on my arms. The quantity is less so you may have to repurchase it often. But the quality totally justifies the price so no complaints.


It has never caused irritation to my sensitive skin. I can definitely say that this is the best sunscreen for oily skin. Though I love the 3 in 1 matte sunscreen, I like this transparent gel more as it is more light weight and gives a cooling sensation to the skin. I use it even when I have breakouts and it does not affect them at all.
Being transparent, it does not create that whitish patchy look.


As you can see in the above picture, it gives a total matte look, very neat and polished. It also makes a very good makeup base. On lazy days, I skip my primer, apply this and then foundation, and my skin is so smooth and does not melt thanks to this sunscreen.

Pros:

1.Affordable
2.Easily available
3.SPF 50 gives good sun protection
4.Does not cause allergies
5.Non-drying
6.Gives a matte look
7.Absorbs excess oil
8.Extremely cooling

Cons:

I wish it came in a bigger tube

My Rating:5/5

Final words:

Combination/oily skinned beauties must get this and Iam sure this would be your HG sunscreen if you do not prefer the tinted one.
