Switch to a watermelon based cream for that glow

After unbearable heat, the monsoon is here to bring a moment of relief. The breeze is chilly but with humidity at its best, your skin can be all sweaty, dull, and greasy, and unexpected breakouts can be more frequent. As the weather changes, so do the needs of your skin but one thing that remains constant is good sunscreen!

A common mistake that most people make is to abandon their sunscreens as soon as the monsoons come into play. Although the sun is barely visible, harmful UV rays can still easily penetrate and damage your precious skin to cause photoaging and discoloration. Even when indoors, protection from harmful blue lights that induce premature aging, makes sunscreens a non-negotiable necessity. It is, thus, imperative to pick a non-sticky fast-absorbing sunscreen, one that suits your skin’s seasonal requirements.

But, this season you can say goodbye to stickiness by picking up a watermelon based sunscreen as creams

formulated with watermelon protect your skin from tanning, and harsh UVA and UVB rays, while boosting its radiance and hydration.

Why Watermelon?

Watermelon is rich in vitamin C, vitamin A, and Lycopene giving a powerful antioxidant effect on the skin. Antioxidant properties in watermelon help to repair damaged cells and fights wrinkles, sagging skin, and dark spots.

Watermelon contains high levels of water which is ideal for skin hydration and a miracle ingredient for dry and dull skin.

It is anti-inflammatory, protects the skin from sunburns, soothes skin redness,

and calms skin irritation

It helps regenerate new cells and keep our skin plump, ultimately slowing down the skin’s ageing process.
