Paheli your knowledge on the nitty gritty of these ingredients and it’s uses amazes me!

Haha thank you! I had horrible skin during my teens/early 20’s. So when I got into skin care big time…I just did A LOT of reading/research on products/ingredients etc.

@parisbynight

is SPF 15 enough?

i have a SPF 30 cream but it seem very thick for the face and leaves you slightly white-ish

1. I personally don’t pay attention to the SPF. With physical sunscreen’s (ie. zinc based)…its the Zinc that provides the protection so I only look at the Zinc %.

2. Just like with foundations, powder etc…sunscreen is also a trial/error process. Due to various skin types/textures/tones…not all sunscreen’s will work for everyone. The only thing I can say is that you try out as many as you can & try to get samples OR buy from places where you can return if that’s possible.
