Sunscreen is something I use every day, irrespective of the season and whether I am staying indoors or outdoors. I have used lotus 3-in-1 matte look sun screen for years and wanted to desperately switch to some high-end brand like Clinique. Clinique is well known for their fragrance-free products that suit all skin types including oily and sensitive skin. I don\u2019t really have sensitive skin, but my skin is behaving a little weird these days like breaking out when I use some product! I had trust on Clinique products (thanks to the hype) and it did live up to its claims and did not break me out at all!\u00a0So here is a detailed review of Clinique Super City Block Spf 40:<\/p>\n

\"CLINIQUE
CLINIQUE SUPER CITY BLOCK SPF 40<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION: <\/strong><\/p>\n

Remarkably sheer, weightless formula contains high-level SPF sun protection plus a boosted level of antioxidants. Provides added hours of protection from UVA\/UVB rays and environmental aggressors. Slips on easily, absorbs quickly. Safe for the delicate eye area.<\/p>\n

MY TAKE ON CLINIQUE SUPER CITY BLOCK SPF 40:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Packaging: The sunscreen comes in a long and sleek plastic tube form which looks really sophisticated. The tube is pastel green in colour with plastic silver shiny screw-cap. The cap fits properly and there is no leakage if you carry it around in your hand bag.<\/p>\n

Texture: The sunscreen is oil-free and light weight. It has more of a gel texture than being creamy which I like. Texture is very smooth and gets easily absorbed into the skin after little massaging.<\/p>\n

Shade: Unlike most sunscreens, this one is lightly tinted which brightens up your face; although do not expect any coverage since it is lightly tinted just like any other tinted moisturizer.<\/p>\n

Fragrance: like I previously mentioned, Clinique products are fragrance-free!<\/p>\n

How I use and after-effects: I take a tiny amount on my finger, about a peanut size amount and dot my entire face, including around the eyes (since it is safe to use around the delicate eye area). I simply blend the sunscreen using fingers and I am good to go. I wait or few seconds for the sunscreen to set and use a compact powder over it.<\/p>\n

When I first used this sunscreen, I was not happy as I could see white cast and it felt a bit heavy on my face. But after few minutes the white cast vanishes completely and face becomes matte; you won\u2019t feel anything on your face! My face felt quite moisturized yet shine-free the entire-day; quite literally! I have oily skin and I couldn\u2019t see any shininess on my T-zone at all. It is rainy season here but still has strong sunlight when it is not raining, my skin did not tan even a bit.<\/p>\n

\n

PROS:
\n<\/strong>Travel friendly
\nLight weight
\nNo white cast
\nMoisturizes face
\nWill suit all skin types
\nClassy packaging
\nDid not break me out<\/p>\n

CONS:
\n<\/strong>A bit pricy for a sunscreen (it\u2019s worth it though)
\nAvailable only in stores (Sephora and Clinique)<\/p>\n

PRICE:<\/strong> INR 2150 for 40 ml<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
