Jovees Water Resistant Sunscreen Fairness Lotion SPF 25 Review

Summer has started to set in here at Kolkata and though its spring time, the weather is getting humid day by day. With summers comes the biggest problem of skin tanning. One should never ever step out without applying a generous amount of sunscreen. Choosing the right type of sunscreen is always a tedious task. Sunscreens are generally greasy and oily, so people abstain from using sunscreen just because of this greasy feeling. People with oily and acne prone skin like me are more concerned because too much oil can lead to break outs. So a good sunscreen with a high SPF rate and less greasiness is hard to find. This search of mine led me to get Jovees Water Resistant Sunscreen Fairness Lotion SPF 25 which I am going to review today. For me, fairness is not a big issue as most products claiming fairness are just false. I picked up this lotion just because it claimed to be water resistant, had SPF 25 and came from a brand like Jovees whose products have never disappointed me. So read the review to know if my search lived up to my expectations or not.

My Experience With Jovees Water Resistant Sunscreen Fairness Lotion SPF 25:

Jovees Water Resistant Sunscreen Fairness Lotion comes in a sturdy white bottle with a pump dispenser. The dispenser has an additional transparent cap which protects its nozzle from accumulating dirt. The nozzle has a small opening and dispenses product in small amounts which prevents its wastage. I find the packaging to be very decent, travel friendly and hygienic. Though the product has been named as lotion, its consistency is somewhere between thick and thin. It has a faint herbal fragrance which does not bother me at all. The lotion spreads easily and gets absorbed in no time without leaving any whitish cast or greasiness. It moisturizes the skin which is perfect for summer time but in winters a heavy moisturizer beneath will be needed. I apply it on my face and it feels so light as if I have not applied anything.

It contains SPF 25 which is pretty good and I have not experienced any new tan since I started using it. It brightens up the skin instantly and makes it one shade lighter after blending. It does even out the skin tone. I had some bad tan on my feet and hands and that has disappeared. To test its water resistance, I intentionally washed my hands with plain water after applying it and it still had that glow and fragrance. This makes it suitable to be used during rainy season as well. Overall I have become a fan of this product because it does not make my skin oily and evens out the tone with added sun protection.
