Amandeep Singh asks..
I am 34 Male from Punjab, Can u suggest me any good moisturizer cum SPF cream for men? I have combination skin type and presently using Loreal Men’s active moisturiser & it is very costly about Rs. 550/- per 120 ml.
Answer:
Most of the men suggest Neutrogena Men Triple Protect face lotion SPF 20 for a non greasy look. It costs Rs.450 and works pretty good for protecting men skin from UV rays and it also helps in healing dryness and razor rashes. Please do check it out.
Abha Agarwal asks..
I am 27 yrs old with a very sensitive skin. My T zone is oily while the cheek areas are dry. But if I apply moisturizer on the cheeks during summer, there are small eruptions. Currently, I apply juices of cucumber and tomato on my face, and also ubtan and a paste of orange peels seems to be working fine. I have deep laugh lines on my face. Is there any way to get rid of it? [Lemon juice and Rose water doesn’t suite me]
Answer:
You have combination skin type if you have dry cheek areas and oily T-zone. Do get special products for combination skin type and treat your skin with natural home remedies to improve the skin texture. Use Neem & Tulsi facial packs to soothe the eruptions and improve your skin texture. Warm almond oil and massage your facial skin with it for 15 minutes. Allow it to sit on your skin for 20 minutes before washing, thus makes your skin absorb all the nourishment from the oil. Almond oil contains Vitamin E, which helps in reducing fine lines and other laugh lines. Mashed strawberries can also be applied on your skin to reduce lines, as it is a great alternate to lemon juice in providing Vitamin C, a great source of Collagen (Meant for elasticity of the skin). Other than these natural remedies, maintaining a healthy diet is also necessary to achieve younger looking skin. Good luck!

Lakshmi asks..
I’m gonna move to Chennai in June. I’m from Andra Pradesh… All I’m afraid is about is the climatic conditions of Chennai. Presently I’m using “Lotus-herbals anti-tan gel with SPF 30” . Do you think this would suffice the climate there? Or else suggest me some other good sunscreen.. by the way.. my skin is combination with occasional oily t-zone
Answer:
The one that you are using at present is pretty good. I myself used a tube and it works good in removing tan and protecting skin from the sun. Make sure to reapply it once in every 3 to 4 hours for extra protection, to bear Chennai Summer [It is really hot here ] :( Whatever sunscreen you chose, make sure to chose a higher SPF one for longer protection. Nothing can help except reapplication when it comes to sunscreen.

Hey, this is Abha & I want to thank you for your response. I have to mention that I cannot massage my skin with anything as it leads to redness on my face. I just pat clean my face & do the same with moisturiser. Any movement on the cheeks area is a irritant.
