In this post, I’ll share the newly launched Lakme sun expert tinted sunscreen review with SPF 50 PA+++. Lakme sun expert ultra matte lotion is one of my favourite sunscreen and when I saw this, I bought immediately without even thinking a bit. It comes in a single shade called natural tone and has SPF 50 which is pretty good for summers.
Price: INR 300 for 50ml
Shelf life: 3 years

It is infused with cucumber and lemongrass extracts, this ultra matte tinted sunscreen feels light and non sticky on skin and gives an even toned look that is perfect for everyday.
Packaging
The look of this sunscreen packaging is pretty basic and similar to lakme ultra matte lotion. It is easily squeezeable, opaque and contains all the details regarding the product. The tube has flip open cap which is a big tight and completely leak-proof, so it will be easy to travel with.
Fragrance
Lakme tinted sunscreen has slightly strong artificial fruity smell which stays for little period of time. It might trigger you out if you have migraine problem.
Lakme Tinted Sunscreen Review & My Experience
Lakme sun expert tinted sunscreen has very neutral kind of shade which is easily suitable for wheatish and fair skin tones. However, for darker skin tones it may look slightly tacky or ashy after application. I gave it to my mom (her skin tone is slightly deep) and when she apply this, it looks little ashy on her face for sometime. I have fair skin tone, on which it gives a very natural finish with light coverage.
The sunscreen has medium consistency that glides very smoothly over skin. I mostly apply this over a serum because I don’t like applying sunscreen directly over my face. One should never apply sunscreen directly to their skin because the chemicals used in sunscreens can absorbed by your body. The sad part is, this sunscreen is really sticky even when I apply directly it feels sticky on my normal skin type. Furthermore, it also leaves shiny finish, so not recommended to you oily/combination skin type. The claim of of being ultra matte and non sticky is not true at all.
I feel that it would be a nice pick for winters as it has SPF 50 PA+++ which provides sufficient protection. If you love spending your time under the sun during winters, you can definitely go for this one. This sunscreen gives a nice protection against harmful UV rays but you have keep reapplying it.
