Hello once again Dearies !

                             As promised I am back with another sunscreen review .Without adding any drama I shall proceed to the matter at hand .Today I shall be reviewing  Lotus herbals safe Sun UV Screen Matte Gel SPF 50 .

The Tube from the front
                                                    


 Price --Rs 295 /- for  50 gms pack .It is easily available at drug stores , cosmetics counters and online .

What Lotus Herbals says --A gel based sunscreen that’s so light that it almost vanishes from your skin and leaves a never before matte feel. Especially for oily skin. 


Active Ingredients -- Comfrey (Symphytum Officinale) ,Sebum Control Vanilla (Vanila Plamifolia) ,Soothing Horse Chestnut (Trapa Bispinosa),UV Protector


The back of the tube 
                                  
The Packaging --It comes in an orange flip top tube and it is easy to dispense the product in the required quantity .The seal is tight so it is  travel friendly .
How to use --To be applied about twenty minutes before stepping out in the sun on all exposed body parts .To be reapplied after two hours .

The product--It is a milky looking gel .Absorbs fast and feels completely non sticky .The sun protection and anti- tan protection provided is very good .Has a balm like soothing property on application .
The gel on application
                     

The PROS

1. Ultra soothing ,skin feels moisturized and supple .

2. Matte look ,does not make the face oily .

3. Oil controlling - over the period of wear,it also avoids the skin from getting greasy which was  a major concern with some other sunscreens .

4. Gel based sunscreen ,since it is not creamy , it does not leave  a painted surface behind . It gets absorbed very fast in a few gentle strokes .Nobody can guess that you are wearing sunscreen !

5. Good  two  hours  plus of sun protection after which you need to re-apply .

 6. Travel and pocket friendly .

After blending completely
                                

The CONS 

1. The only con can be that it is not waterproof so sweating will reduce the efficacy of sun  protection .


The Final Verdict -- I would rate it a  4.5 / 5 .


To summarize ,it is a great sunscreen for all skin types .It protects , soothes, mattifies and controls oil .That is a multi-functioning product for you at the price of one product !!!

If you’re reading this and are not disabled then you are among the fortunate majority of Indian population that does not have to live with a disability and has access to education and employment as a basic right.The other 3.8% of Indian population, unfortunately, has some or the other form of physical disability which deprives them from having access to equal opportunities towards education and employment in our system and society.                                               Recently I got injured and had to wear a cast in one leg for about 15 days. Life with only one fully functional limb was a revelation to me. I could appreciate the hundreds of obstacles that a differently-abled person must face in their daily life.

Moliere ,The famous French poet had once said ,“Great is the fortune of he who possesses a good bottle, a good book and a good friend.” I guess then, I am definitely among the blessed and thank you God! I was introduced to wine long back (when my Father was posted overseas) but have seriously started appreciating the taste and flavors of wine only recently. Turning another leaf in my wine tasting journey, today I shall be reviewing the “Sula Riesling” for my readers.                                        Sula Riesling (source -Sulawines.com) Before I venture into the tasting, I am tempted to share a few wine facts first. WINE DRINKING IN INDIA  With evolving times drinking wine has become acceptable and fashionable in our society and the fairer sex is no exception to the trend but there is plenty of evidence to suggest that wine was a popular drink in India even centuries ago. In the Rig- Veda we find mention of wine. Grog shops were in existence then.
