Dermatologists in Lahore, Karachi, Islamabad and Rawalpindi see intense sun exposure for most of the year, which makes daily sunscreen use essential for preventing pigmentation and premature aging.
The gel combines Sulisobenzone, Avobenzone and Octinoxate, three chemical filters that absorb harmful UVA and UVB rays before they damage the skin.
A thin, even layer applied thirty minutes before sun exposure works best. Reapplication every few hours is needed with sweating, swimming or long outdoor hours.
