Why choose this product

Advanced Sun Defense & Hydration

Its air-powered mist technology ensures easy application and quick drying, while a blend of aloe vera, safflower oil, and avocado oil actively moisturizes the skin. This formulation is dermatologist-tested, hypoallergenic, and free from oxybenzone, synthetic fragrances, parabens, and sulfates, making it a thoughtful choice for daily sun protection.

Who It's For & Who Should Skip

This sunscreen is ideal for individuals with dry skin, sensitive skin, or those seeking high SPF 70 protection for outdoor activities and daily commutes in India. Its moisturizing properties and fragrance-free formula make it suitable for most adults. However, if you have extremely oily skin and prefer a completely matte finish, or if you are specifically looking for a mineral-based sunscreen, you might consider alternative formulations. Those with known sensitivities to chemical sunscreen ingredients should also explore mineral options.

How to use

Prepare for Application — Shake the can well before use. Ensure skin is clean and dry. Hold the can 4-6 inches away from the skin for even application.
Apply Generously — Spray liberally and evenly over all exposed skin areas 15 minutes before sun exposure. Do not spray directly onto the face; spray into hands first, then apply to face.
Reapply as Needed — Reapply after 80 minutes of swimming or sweating, or immediately after towel drying. Use at least every 2 hours for continuous protection, especially during prolonged sun exposure.
