Prescibe a sunscreen
Hi,
which is the best sunscreen for men?
I have been(since last week) using Lotus sunscreen with spf 40, but it makes me sweat profusely. I apply it 15 min. before leaving. I have combination skin, it is oily at times and dry at times. I am from Delhi.
Please prescribe a good sunscreen that does not make me sweat and does its work as well.
Thanks.

Outdoor activities make our skin tan. The only option is to wear protective full sleeves clothing and cover as much as possible. Usage of a cap or hat and umbrella is encouraged. Skin already tanned can be treated with de-pigmenting creams and other oral medications. A good skin care regimen comprises 4 steps - cleansing, toning, moisturizing and sun block. Based on your skin type, a dermatologist will recommend you appropriate products.
Next Steps
Reluctance of usage of sunscreens is because they are greasy or make your face appear white which is undesirable. There are different types of sunscreens available and there is one for everyone, so find the one that will help you or take the help of a Dermatologist.
