This tinted sunscreen offers SPF 50/PA+++, which is appropriate for high UV conditions in India. The 'water essence' and 'non-greasy' claims suggest it would be suitable for India's humid climate, preventing a heavy feel. The price point of Rs.990 positions it in the mid-to-premium segment for sunscreens. The presence of Benzophenone-3 (Oxybenzone) is a common ingredient in Indian sunscreens but is increasingly a point of consumer scrutiny globally.
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.
SPF 50 and PA+++ are standard sunscreen claims. The INCI lists multiple UV filters (Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate, Butyl Methoxydibenzoylmethane, Benzophenone-3, Titanium Dioxide) supporting the SPF/PA claims.
The formula contains emollients like C12-15 Alkyl Benzoate and Phospholipids, and film-forming polymers (Polyacrylate-13, Polyisobutene) which can contribute to a lightweight feel.
Supported by SPF 50/PA+++ rating and presence of multiple UV filters in the INCI.
UVA/UVB protection is supported by filters. Blue light and anti-pollution claims are often ingredient-level (e.g., antioxidants like Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract, 3-O-Ethyl Ascorbic Acid, Tocopheryl Acetate, Biosaccharide Gum-4 are present). Water resistance requires specific testing, which is not publicly visible for the finished product.
This is a technology claim. While the product name includes 'Microencapsulated', no specific evidence or explanation of this technology's implementation or its impact on distribution/coverage is publicly visible.
The product is tinted, containing Iron Oxide and Titanium Dioxide, which provide the tint to even out skin tone. 'Flawless finish' is subjective but plausible for a tinted product.
The INCI includes humectants (Urea, Yeast Amino Acids, Trehalose, Inositol, Betaine, 1,3 Butylene glycol, Propanediol) and emollients (Phospholipids, C12-15 Alkyl Benzoate, Cetearyl Olivate, Sorbitan Olivate) that support hydration and moisturization.
The formula contains antioxidants like Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract, 3-O-Ethyl Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C derivative), and Tocopheryl Acetate (Vitamin E), which can neutralize free radicals. The 'anti-pollution' aspect is often linked to these antioxidants and film-forming agents.

“Prolonged, consistent UVA/UVB/HEVIS defense keeps your skin flawless from dawn till dusk.”
The claim 'Prolonged, consistent... from dawn till dusk' is an absolute claim about duration of efficacy that is not supported by standard sunscreen usage guidelines (reapply every 2 hours) and lacks specific clinical proof for this finished product.
“Non-allergic, non-irritant formula crafted for all skin types, including the most sensitive.”
The absolute claims 'non-allergic, non-irritant' are difficult to substantiate for all individuals, especially given the presence of ingredients like Benzophenone-3 and Fragrance, without specific clinical patch testing data for the finished product.
