Review: Nivea Sun Protect and moisture Moisturizing Sun Lotion SPF 30 PA++

Hello Everybody! Welcome back to my blog!

So, today I am going to be reviewing another sunscreen. This one, I will say is my second favorite. My favorite is the Neutrogena one which I have already reviewed so make sure to check that out. I will leave a link in the end. But, for now I am going to be reviewing The Nivea Sunscreen. I came across this very recently when I was trying out for a different sunscreen for my body, as the neutrogena one is too small for my whole body.

It is important to use a high SPF on both face and body, even though the face ages first. I found that SPF 50 in this range was too sticky, so I tried the SPF 30 and it worked pretty good. I'm not being biased. I give the same importance and care to my face and body. I hate the sticky feeling all over my body, especially because  I live in a very humid area it feels very uncomfortable, so this was the only option.

Coming to the claims, this does not feeling sticky on the skin or anything (but the SPF 50 felt too sticky). It gets absorbed into the skin and feels smooth. It does stay on the skin for a decent amount of time and gives a good protection for skin. Usually dermatologists recommend SPF 30, but I prefer a bit higher because I spend a lot of time in the sun, but this one gives protection for decent amount of time and doesn't fade. It is moisturizing and water resistant, which is perfect for the monsoons and doesn't give a white cast. 

I use this all year round on my arms and legs and it stays and protects decent all year round. I do not re-apply the sunscreen as in this busy world, it is not really possible to remember about re-applying the sunscreen. So I just use this once in the morning and that's it. It stays good on my skin for the whole day and I did not get any burns or uneven tan lines of the design of my fabric :p

If you are going for swimming, this will still stay on the skin, but I will recommend to reapply it. If you are going to be spending one whole day in the beach, then I will suggest to take the sunscreen with you and definitely re-apply every two-three hours or after swimming, but on a day-to-day basis, it is not required and also, who has the time for it? :P . However it is suggested to re-apply whenever possible.

 Between 10:00 AM and 4:00 PM is the most dangerous time for sun exposure and that is also the time when most people are outside including myself, and this works very well and so far I had no issues with my skin from the product and also from the sun :P Although it is an immediate sunscreen, I would still suggest to wait for at least 10 minutes so that it gets absorbed well and sets.

 I first put sunscreen on my face and body, and wait for five minutes and then do my hair and makeup. This way you can save time and do not have to separately wait for it to get absorbed. Sunscreen should always be applied in the end, and then do your makeup. However, if it is a chemical sunscreen, you can apply it prior to your moisturizer. :)

So, that is it for this time. I hope you all found this helpful and if you did, then share it with you're friends and give it a ''+1''. If you have used this sunscreen, then let me know in the comments how it worked for you. Don't forget to subscribe for more :)

I will see you soon. Until the take care.
Bye <3
