Suggestion for best sunscreen
Hi, I'm planning to go to Goa for the weekend and would like to ask what would be the best sunscreen to carry. I do not wish to get tanned as I have another important function in like a week after my vacations.
Please suggest.

It depends on the tone and texture of skin..Without seeing can't treat...Do direct online consultation for prescription by sending photo.

Oral sunscreen polypodium leucotomos is very helpful. Take it once daily. Else take tab Sky fizz 2000mg daily in water. Use a sunscreen with min 50 SPF..If oily skin Acne UV gel is good. For dry skin, Z block is excellent..
Next Steps
have a nice time at Goa..
