LaRoche-posay melt-in sunscreen milk Review

Image
  LaRoche-Posay is one of my top favorite skincare brands. I love French pharmaceutical brands, They make amazing products which actually deliver the things written on the product.  Whenever I mess my skin with random products,  I always run for French pharmaceutical products to recover my skin's barrier.  I first discovered this brand through VJ Anusha Dandekar's YouTube channel. I was in my +2 at that time and I went to a health&glow store near my house and bought their anti shine dry touch gel sunscreen and instantly fell in love with it. Ever since, It has been my HG sunscreen. I have also tried few more variants from the same brand. But all of them didn't impress me. So I thought of  reviewing each sunscreen I've tried from the brand, so that you can make a wise decision. MY REVIEW: While other sunscreens are getting bashed for not living up to their stated SPF potential, this Laroche posay meltin sunscreen milk has earned a perfect score from Consumer Reports

Re'equil Ultra matte dry touch sunscreen gel spf 50 pa++++

Sunscreen is the most important step in my skincare routine and I've used a range of sunscreens till date and I really know my sunscreens. So I think I am the best person to review this hyped sunscreen product. Before starting with the review, I want to show you guys why it is important to wear sunscreen. Below is the solid answer for your 'WHY?'. You can see that this old man's skin is much more aged on one side than the other. He is a  trucker and his left side has been exposed to UVA rays transmitted via his window for 28 years, but his right side has been protected and remains relatively unscathed. UVA rays are able to penetrate through glass windows and clouds and chronic exposure can lead to destruction of the skin's elasticity- which explains the deep wrinkles.  The rays not only age the skin but also pose a danger of skin cancer due to DNA breakage and direct toxicity. So, even if its dark and rainy outside, it's critical that you apply sunscreen. How to

Trust me...If you are looking for something to lighten your  acne scars/age spots, Then your search ends with this E'clat fade out serum . Whatever your skintype, you need not worry, this superior serum is suitable for all.  This serum is a blend of Azelaic acid, Tranexamic acids 1.78% Licorice Extract, 4-Butylresorcinol, Niacinamide 5%, Phytic acid 5%. All are scientifically proven to be effective on pigmentation. Previously,  I use to apply ambi fade cream to treat my acne scars. It worked wonders. But it is not easily available in India and also that cream is made of 2% hydroquinone.  So, it is not safe to use more than 3 months. I've been searching for a gentle  alternative and came across this gem of a product😍 30ml product retails for 1900rs . But, most of the times  you will find this serum on 40% discount or you can use any influencers code to avail certain discount. I personally feel it is worth every single penny. I've gone through 3 bottles and all those bottle
