Frequently Asked Questions
-
Sun protectors are the family of products, sunscreens, sunblocks, creams, lotions, and sprays, that shield the skin from the sun's harmful UV rays, and they are important because sun exposure is the leading cause of skin ageing, dark spots, and damage. Daily protection is the foundation of healthy skin.
- Shield against UVA and UVB rays.
- The single most effective anti-ageing skincare step.
- Available as lotions, creams, gels, and sprays.
-
SPF (Sun Protection Factor) measures protection against UVB rays, the ones that burn, with higher numbers giving more protection. For everyday use SPF 30 is a sensible minimum, and SPF 50 suits long sun exposure, fair skin, or holidays. Crucially, also choose "broad-spectrum," which covers ageing UVA rays too. No SPF blocks 100 percent, and proper amount and reapplication matter more than chasing the highest number. SPF 30 to 50, broad-spectrum, applied well, serves most people.
-
Match the texture to your skin and activity.
- Oily/acne-prone: light gels or matte lotions.
- Dry skin: richer creams.
- Sensitive skin: mineral (zinc) formulas.
- Body/outdoors: lotions and water-resistant types.
The best sun protector is the one you will actually wear every day.
-
Apply generously before going out and reapply through the day.
- Use about a teaspoon for the face and neck, a shot glass for the body.
- Apply 15 to 20 minutes before sun exposure.
- Reapply every two hours and after swimming or sweating.
- Cover easily forgotten spots: ears, neck, hands, lips, feet.
Most "sunscreen failures" are simply under-application.
-
Yes, all skin tones need sun protection, since while more melanin offers some natural defence, it does not prevent UV damage, uneven tone, dark spots, or skin ageing, and everyone benefits from daily broad-spectrum protection. Darker skin is especially prone to pigmentation and dark marks worsening with sun, so sunscreen is key for an even tone. Choose a formula that suits your skin without a white cast, tinted or modern mineral options help, and wear it daily, every shade included.
-
Absolutely, daily sun protection is the most effective way to prevent the dark spots, uneven tone, fine lines, and loss of firmness that the sun causes, which is why dermatologists call it the best anti-ageing product there is. Most visible skin ageing comes from cumulative UV exposure, much of it incidental and everyday. Pairing sunscreen with brightening and nourishing care lets those products actually work, since without protection the sun simply undoes their benefits.
-
Yes, and it works beautifully: apply your Ayurvedic serum and moisturiser first, then sun protection as the final daytime step, so the herbs nourish while the sunscreen shields. Cooling botanicals like aloe and sandalwood also soothe sun-exposed skin afterwards. Think of modern sun protection and traditional herbal care as partners, the sunscreen prevents damage, the Ayurvedic products nourish and support. Together they keep skin healthy, even-toned, and radiant far better than either alone.
