Sunscreen is your skin’s first line of defense—and finding the best sunscreen for Indian skin types can protect you from sun damage, premature ageing, and dullness. But with so many options available, how do you pick the right one?
It starts with understanding your skin type, reading the label, and choosing a formula that’s both effective and gentle. That’s exactly where N4N Sunscreen—Natural Sunscreen SPF 35 PA++ comes in.
What Makes a Good Sunscreen?
The two things to look for:
-
SPF (Sun Protection Factor): Guards against UVB rays that cause sunburn.
-
PA Rating: Protects against UVA rays responsible for tanning and skin ageing.
A sunscreen like N4N’s SPF 35 PA++ gives you broad-spectrum protection that’s safe, effective, and made with 100% natural ingredients—ideal for Indian weather and skin.

FAQs
-
How often should I reapply sunscreen?
Sunscreen should be reapplied every 2–3 hours, especially when you're spending time outdoors, sweating, or swimming. Even the best sunscreens wear off with time, sweat, or physical contact. Reapplying ensures consistent protection from UVA/UVB rays that can cause tanning, sunburn, premature aging, and even pigmentation. For indoor use, a top-up every 4 hours is a good habit. Carry a travel-sized version for easy reapplication on the go. -
