A standout sunscreen with robust clinical backing for its comprehensive protection claims, excellent ingredient transparency, and a well-formulated, consumer-friendly texture.
₹299 • Analysed 22 October 2026
This Aqualogica sunscreen is well-suited for the Indian climate, offering high SPF 50+ PA++++ broad-spectrum protection against intense UV radiation and blue light, which is crucial given high UV indices. Its lightweight, non-sticky, and no-white-cast formula is ideal for humid conditions. The inclusion of Niacinamide and Ceramides addresses common Indian skin concerns like pigmentation and barrier health. The brand's extensive clinical testing and transparency on SPF/PA values and anti-pollution claims set a strong benchmark for the Indian market.
Independent and free. The Clean Sheet takes no money from brands to analyse, rank, or approve a product. This is a web evidence analysis, not a Clean Sheet certification. We checked the ingredient list, publicly available test reports, marketing claims, and formula logic using only public information available at the time of analysis.
In-vivo SPF 50.232 (ISO 24444:2019) and PA++++ (COLIPA guidelines) confirmed by independent third-party lab CCFT Laboratories Pvt. Ltd. (Study Number: CTRI/2025/07/090309).
Confirmed by ISO 24444:2019 in-vivo SPF testing on human participants at CCFT Laboratories.
Achieved a critical wavelength of 378 nm (exceeds 370 nm threshold) and Boots Star Rating ***, confirmed by CCFT Laboratories.
Both ingredients are listed in the INCI. Niacinamide is part of the '2% Nia-Hyaluron Complex' with its percentage disclosed.
User reviews frequently praise the lightweight and fast-absorbing texture. The formula contains silicones (Caprylyl Methicone, Dimethicone) which contribute to this feel.
Supported by formula logic (silicones, lack of heavy oils) and consistent user feedback.
The formula uses a combination of chemical and physical filters (Titanium Dioxide, Zinc Oxide) which are often micronized to minimize white cast. User reviews confirm no white cast.
Niacinamide and Watermelon Extract are known for brightening and hydrating properties, contributing to radiance. However, no specific finished product study for 'radiance boost' was found.
