Best Sunscreens for Dry Skin in India

Digital Doctor 21 Apr, 2022

There are plenty of hassles that people with dry skin have to deal with. Especially with the advent of the summer season, people with dry skin face a wide range of complications including vulnerability to excessive heat, loss of moisture, and skin irritation. Following a skincare routine and using a high-quality and effective sunscreen becomes very crucial to ensure complete care and protection of dry skin. However, you cannot just apply any random sunscreen on your skin. Choosing the right sunscreen is very important to ensure the best benefits for dry skin. 

In this post, we have compiled a guide to choosing the best sunscreens to make your weekly skincare routine for dry skin more effective. 

How to choose the best sunscreen for dry skin?

Sunscreen should be an imperative part of your weekly routine for skincare. However, for people with dry skin, it is not that easy to pick a sunscreen. You must be very vigilant when picking a sunscreen as your skin requirements are different from those who have normal or oily skin. 

When buying sunscreen for dry skin, you must look for moisturizer-based sunscreen. It is also recommended to check for the high quantity of hydration elements in the sunscreen. Ceramides and Hyaluronic acids are the most effective hydrating elements to have in your sunscreen. They not only enhance the sun protection ability of the sunscreen but also makes your dry skin content less dehydrated. 

Here are a few elements that you must keep in mind when buying sunscreen for dry skin.

1. UVA & UVB 

You must look for a sunscreen that offers protection against UVA & UVB both. Such sunscreens are known as broad-spectrum sunscreens and they protect your skin against skin damage, and premature aging as well as limit your chances of developing skin cancer.

2. SPF

Always buy a sunscreen that has SPF 30 and above. SPF 30 and higher promises effective protection against harmful UV rays. 

3. Spray/ lotion 

Whether you use stock or a sunscreen lotion is an entirely personal choice. Depending upon your ease of usage, you can choose to use sunscreen stick/ spray, gel, or lotion. 

4. Water resistance

It is not legal for sunscreen manufacturers to claim that their product is waterproof. However, many sunscreens come with a water-resistant element which means that you can prevent the sunscreen from washing off due to swimming or excessive sweat. 

5. Ingredients

Check the ingredients and make sure you know what to choose- chemical or physical ingredients.

Chemical ingredients are those that absorb harmful UV rays. Example: PABA (para-aminobenzoic acid) and cinnamates

Physical ingredients are those that deflect the sun’s rays and protect your skin. Example: zinc oxide and titanium dioxide

Dry skin is prone to losing moisture and hence very vulnerable to sun damage. Make sure you choose the right sunscreen to protect your skin during dry and dull summer days.  Using a skincare app to keep track of the real weather conditions is also a great way to protect your skin against sun damage.
