VLCC Matte Look Sunscreen Lotion SPF 30.


Hi,

Greetings!!! It my first ever review and the Product is VLCC Matte Look Sunscreen Lotion SPF 30.

I have a dusky complexion and with normal to dry skin and prone to tanning and some how I always go by the look of the product instead of the benefits listed and in return cause more harm to my skin. Recently I was addicted to BIOTIQUE, no clue why. After reading certain not-so-positive reviews I still had the guts of trying them and all in vain. My last BIOTIQUE trial was the BIO SANDALWOOD Face and Body Sun Lotion which had disappointed me completely. It was then when I had walked in one of the Health and Glow stores and the SA recommended me VLCC Matte Look Sunscreen Lotion SPF 30. I was a bit skeptical but she was able to convince me promising that the product would give a Matte foundation finish which was exactly what I was looking for.

Company Verdict:  VLCC Matte Look Sunscreen Lotion is abroad spectrum sunscreen providing protection from both UVA and UVB rays. This sunscreen is designed for all day protection and is suitable for all skin types. It gets absorbed quickly and provides a matte finish.



Directions: Apply the Lotion liberally and evenly on the face and neck, before exposure to the sun. Re-apply frequently, specially for  long duration sun exposure.
Ingredients: Almond oil, Jojoba oil, white sandalwood extract, Turmeric extract, Germinated wheat oil, Pineapple extract, Zinc oxide, Aloe Vera extract, carrot seed oil, cucumber extract, Lotion base Q.S.

The Product says WHO-GMP Certified which means the ingredients are from a trustworthy source.

Price: 175/- INR

My Experience :
This is exactly what I wanted.
The product comes in a flip open tube and seems to be travel friendly. The product is tinted with creamy texture with a mild smell which doesn’t stay long. Upon application it spreads evenly and gets absorbed quickly. Since it is tinted it gives an immediate even toned matte finish and can provide a make base for the day. The matte effect for me lasted almost for 6 hours without breaking and just required compact touch. Since I am always sitting inside an AC cabin so I generally don’t re-apply until I have to go out-side in the sun.



I am very particular about washing my face as soon as I reach home and it feels fresh with out any signs of tanning.
