After using various sunscreens and sunblocks from Lotus Herbals, I purchased the Neutrogena sunblock this time. Neutrogena Ultra sheer dry touch sunblock SPF 50+ (PA +++) costs INR Rs 150 for 30 ml tube.
What Neutrogena claims about Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry-Touch Sunblock SPF 50+ : Neutrogena Ultra sheer dry touch sunblock SPF 50+ (PA +++) is a breakthrough in sun protection.
Stabilized withHelioplex™ Technology it provides superior balanced broad spectrum protection against skin aging UVA and burning UVB rays and combines it with Dry Touch Technology for an ultra light, non shiny finish.

I feel a bit greasiness and oiliness after using this sunblock, which I did not expect. Also though Neutrogena claims that Neutrogena Ultra sheer dry touch sunblock SPF 50+ (PA +++) delivers a non-shiny look, but its not totally non-shiny as you can see from the picture posted below.
If you are having dry or combination skin, then this Neutrogena Ultra sheer dry touch sunblock SPF 50+ (PA +++) is the right sunblock for you as this makes the skin much softer and moisturises the face without drying the skin. This sunblock wont cast a whitish cast on the face and absorbs within a moment. It has a mild fragrance. The pack is travel-friendly, since it comes in a small tube.
My skin did not break out after using this Neutrogena Ultra sheer dry touch sunblock SPF 50+ (PA +++) but I am uncomfortable with its greasiness (even though less). The sunblock contains various chemicals, so its better to go for a skin patch test before using on the face. Since the sunblock contains SPF 50+ and has Helioplex which delivers high protection from the sun rays.
No I wont re-purchase the product again.
