Sunscreen in Pakistan: why you need it every day

Pakistan gets strong sunshine for most of the year. Sun exposure is one of the main causes of dark spots, uneven tone and early fine lines, and it can make pigmentation from acne last longer. Daily sunscreen is the simplest step that protects every other product you use.

Do brown skin tones need sunscreen?

Yes. Deeper skin tones have some natural protection, but they are more likely to get dark patches and marks that stay for a long time. Sunscreen helps prevent that.

How to use it

  • Every morning, as the last step of your skincare.
  • Enough product: about two finger-lengths for face and neck.
  • Reapply every 2 to 3 hours if you are outdoors, sweating or after washing your face.
  • Indoors too, if you sit near windows.

Choosing a sunscreen

  • Look for broad-spectrum protection.
  • For oily skin, pick a light, non-greasy texture.
  • A light tint can help avoid a white cast on brown skin.

Our Sheer Defence Tinted Sunscreen SPF 60 is broad-spectrum, lightweight and non-greasy with a light tint, made for daily use.

If you use acids or retinol

Products like glycolic acid toner and retinol serum can make skin more sensitive to the sun. Daily sunscreen is a must when you use them.
