Sun Protection & Sun Damage
Nine dedicated sunscreens, formulated for every skin type India's climate actually demands. Gel textures for oily and acne-prone skin (AC Screen, AC Sheer, Uvmed), a zinc oxide mineral sunscreen with no white cast (Z Block), a sunscreen stick for on-the-go application (Z Stick, with added Hyaluronic Acid and Ceramides), and oral sunscreen tablets (O Screen, O Screen Gold) for systemic protection on long outdoor days. Together, they offer practical options whether you're looking for a sunscreen for tanning and sun damage in India, daily city wear, or prolonged outdoor exposure. 360 Block Sunscreen Gel, Featured on the site, goes beyond standard UV filtering with BlueShield technology for blue-light and screen-exposure protection; a genuinely modern sunscreen gel for blue light and pollution protection for anyone spending most of the day in front of a laptop or phone, not just outdoors. Category USP A sunscreen for every skin type, not one generic SPF. Oily and acne-prone skin gets lightweight gels (AC Screen, Uvmed); sensitive or mineral-sunscreen users get Z Block's 25% zinc oxide formula; on-the-go reapplication gets the Z Stick. Whether you're after the best sunscreen for oily acne-prone skin or a sunscreen for sensitive and baby skin, the range is built around skin type rather than a one-size-fits-all SPF. Beyond UV - blue light and pollution protection. 360 Block is formulated with BlueShield and Tyrostat, addressing digital-screen exposure and pigmentation triggers together, not just sunburn. It's a genuine sunscreen gel for blue light and pollution protection, reflecting how sun damage today isn't limited to time spent outdoors. Systemic protection as an option, not just topical. O Screen and O Screen Gold bring oral sunscreen tablets in India into the range for outdoor workers, athletes, and anyone wanting additional support that doesn't wash off. They're positioned for doctor-directed, informational use rather than as a replacement for topical SPF.
Frequently Asked Questions
- Which sunscreen is best for oily, acne-prone skin? AC Screen and Uvmed are lightweight gel formulations with oil-control ingredients alongside SPF, making them strong contenders for the best sunscreen for oily acne-prone skin without the heaviness often associated with cream-based sunscreens.
- What does "no white cast" mean, and which products deliver it? It means the sunscreen doesn't leave a visible white film on medium or deeper skin tones. Z Block is a zinc oxide mineral sunscreen with no white cast, while AC Sheer offers a chemical sunscreen alternative with a similarly transparent finish.
- Do oral sunscreen tablets replace topical sunscreen? No. O Screen and O Screen Gold are oral sunscreen tablets in India intended as a supportive, doctor-directed addition during prolonged sun exposure - not a substitute for applying a broad-spectrum sunscreen.
- Is a sunscreen with skin-brightening benefits available here? Yes. 360 Block Sunscreen Gel combines SPF with Arbutin and Glutathione, making it a practical broad spectrum SPF 50 sunscreen in India for people looking to protect against UV exposure while supporting a brighter-looking complexion.
- How often should sunscreen be reapplied? Every 2--3 hours during extended sun exposure remains the standard guidance. The Z Stick, designed as a sunscreen stick for on-the-go application, makes reapplying over makeup or while travelling considerably easier.
- Is there a sunscreen suitable after cosmetic or dermatological procedures? Mineral formulations are often preferred when skin is temporarily more delicate. If you're looking for a sunscreen for post-procedure skin care, consult your dermatologist, but products like Z Block's zinc oxide formulation are generally the type of sunscreen commonly recommended for sensitive, recovering skin.
