Hi Everyone,
I am not really fond of Shahnaz Husain products because they never really suit acne prone skin plus most of the products do not have full ingredient disclosure as well.I was browsing on Amazon and stumbled upon this sunscreen.As you all must know by now I am prefer gel based products so thought I would it give it try.Some of you guys were finding it difficult procure Sunprotek Gel Sunscreen plus its expensive so thought I will try it out and see if its suits oily-acne prone skin.Read along to find out more about it.
My Skin Type:
Oily and acne prone skin.
Ingredients:
Aqua/Water,Glycerin,Triethanolamine,Methoxy Cinnamidopropyl Hydroxy Sultaine,Phenylbenzimidazole Sulfonic acid,Aloe Barbadensis Gel,Benzophenone-4,Carbomer,Cucumis Sativus Extract,Daucus Carota Extract,Helianthus Annus Extract,Dimethicone,Ethyl Paraben,Propyl Paraben,Butyl Paraben,Isobutyl Parabens,Potassium Sorbate,Diazolidinyl Urea,Iodopropynl Butylcarbamate,Tetrasodium EDTA.
Price:
Rs.275 for 180 grams.
Product Description & Swatches:
Pro’s:
1)It is oil-free,non-comedogenic and gel based product.
2)It is a SPF 20 broad spectrum sunscreen which provides protection against both UVA and UVB.
3)It is a moisturising sunscreen gel so moisturiser come sunscreen.
4)It contains soothing ingredients like aloe vera,cucumber extracts.
5)It contains carrot extracts which is rich in vitamins and antioxidants.
6)It does not make greasy and no white cast.
7)It absorbs instantly and it does not break me out.
8)It is suitable for all skin types especially oily-acne prone skin.
9)Affordable.
10)Easy availability.
Con’s:
1)It is loaded with parabens.
2)It contains dimethicone.
3)SPF 30+ would have been better.
4)Dry skin types might need additional moisturiser.
Directions for use:
Apply sunscreen 20 minutes prior to stepping outside.Reapply every 3-4 hours.
Final Verdict:
This particular sunscreen is definitely surprise product from Shahnaz Husain.I didn’t expect it to be good.Its a pretty budget sunscreen for oily-acne prone skin.It is gel based,non-comedogenic,moisturising sunscreen.But the disadvantage is SPF 20 is low which is not sufficient for outdoors, though it is suitable for indoors.It does not make my skin oily or break me out so it will be good option for upcoming summers.I also did not like that it is loaded with tons of parabens.Overall a good budget sunscreen!
