Biotique Bio Morning Nectar 30+ SPF Sunscreen Ultra Soothing Face Lotion Review
By Archana
Hi all,
Today, am reviewing the last product in the Biotique Anti-ageing Skin Care Routine which is the sunscreen lotion. No skin care is complete without a suncare product. Biotique Bio Morning Nectar 30+ SPF UVA/UVB Sunscreen Ultra Soothing Face Lotion not only helps in anti-ageing but also gives a flawless, radiant skin. Let’s move on to the review.
Products claims: Nectar is the sweet fluid that flowering plants produce each day, used to sustain ageless beauty from the beginning of time. This nourishing and brightening lotion is blended with pure honey, wheatgerm and seaweed. Replaces natural oils and replenishes lost moisture. Softens and brightens skin for a noticebly fairer complexion. Protects skin with SPF 30 UVA / UVB sunscreen.
Ingredients: Ghritkumari (Aloe barbedensis), Methi (Trigo foenum graecum), Madhu (Honey), Ankurit gehun (Tritcum vulgare), Kusumbhi (Carthamus tinstorious), Lotion base Q.S.
Price and quantity: Rs.199 for 120ml.
Availability: Buy online HERE
Directions to use: Apply evenly over cleansed face and neck, before sun exposure, each morning. Wear alone or under makeup.
Packaging:
The sunscreen lotion comes in a tall, translucent cylindrical plastic bottle with a screw-on cap. I wish it came in a pump packaging instead as those are more convenient. The bottle is housed inside an outer carton which has all the details of the product. I have carried this during my travels and haven’t faced any leakage or spillage.
Texture and fragrance:
The sunscreen lotion is white in color and has a medium consistency, neither thick nor thin. It has a faint herbal scent which is not bothersome.
My experience:
I have been using this sunscreen lotion along with the other products in the anti-ageing routine. I have slightly dry skin and this sunscreen lotion suits me perfectly. I sometimes skip moisturizer and use only this sunscreen. So this serves as a dual-purpose product. It gets blended easily without leaving any white cast unlike other sunscreens and gives a dewy look. Only a small quantity is needed each time so one bottle will last for a long time.
It offers high sun protection of SPF 30 and protection from both UVA and UVB rays. I feel it also improves skin texture and makes my skin soft, smooth and nourished. I haven’t faced any breakouts while using this lotion. However, I doubt whether it would suit oily skin as it might cause them to sweat more.
Pros:
* High sun protection of SPF 30 and UVA and UVB protection.
* Does not leave any whitish cast.
* Doubles up as a moisturizer as well.
* Makes skin soft, smooth and nourished.
* Less quantity is needed, so lasts for a long time.
* Impressive natural ingredients list.
* Affordable.
Cons:
* Might not suit oily skin.
Rating: 4.3/5
Verdict: Overall, Biotique Bio Morning Nectar 30+ SPF UVA/UVB Sunscreen Ultra Soothing Face Lotion is a good ayurvedic sunscreen lotion which also moisturizes and nourishes the skin. It is free from harmful chemicals and preservatives, so you can use this safely. All skin types except oily skin can use it.
Editor’s Note: I absolutely love Morning Nectar, I had the normal version, not this sunscreen version. I used this at night since it is little heavy or during winters. But I love how it make my skin perfectly balanced and hydrated/nourished the next morning.
