Lets admit it that we all love products which stay put together for hours without touch-up. Specially in the scorching heat when Surya Devta bless us with harsh UVA/B rays regularly 9am-6pm every day. So when Lakme launched their new 9-5 range of Sunscreen I screamed with joy. 9 to 5 tag was like a lottery for me and the cherry on the cake was the Matte effect claim, so I grabbed this sunblock the day it was launched in my town. It is almost a month that I am using this Sunscreen and it is the right time to review this sunscreen.

My Review:
The sunscreen is having a bit thick cream like consistency which is easy to work with. It smells nice, is light weight and gets easily absorbed by the skin. During summers my skin loves to ooze oil literally from each and every pore present on my face and believe me ladies no matter how effective a product is to control oil on others- it simply fail to work on my super-oily skin. So when I got this sunscreen I thought- may be just may be this will work on me but nope the Mattifying
How I wish, one day some company may come with claims like- Fights oil on your face even at 45 degree Celsius and wont let you down!! Although it leaves a whitish cast post application but that vanishes soon and this sunscreen protects you from tanning, Infact this sunscreen can act as a good makeup base as well. It comes with 50 +++ PA that will protect our delicate skin from harsh and cruel UVA/B rays by keeping our look oil free for at least some time.
Packaging: The product comes in rosy peach opaque plastic packaging secured with a golden screw open cap. The packaging has a pump to dispense the required quantity of product. The packaging is hygienic, sturdy and travel friendly.

Sounds like a nice one :)
I am so tired of seeing ads for this sunscreen before every video on youtube :P A white face is a pet peeve of mine. Gonna skip this sunscreen for sure!
Nice review... Seems like decent average product ....
Was planning to buy this one only because it claims to mattify the skin, but im glad I read your review. Will probably stick to my good old Neutrogena.
I prefer the hydrating variant for my combi skin since this has a thicker texture. but I'm sure this will work much better in scorching summer months. Great Review!
hey Nausheen didnt u review this same product on peaches and blush on 31st march ? it is really annoying to see two reviews at different places by a same person, especially when people are looking for honest opinions and experiences from different people when they want to genuinely buy a product, dont u think so ?
I was wondering about the same thing.... It's quite disturbing to read the review on two different blogs by same person with DIFFERENT OPINIONS!
Nice review..very detailed in fact
I think I'll go with my regular sunscreen :D. Well reviewed Nausheen :)
i will still go with my loreal UV perfect even complexion!
I think I will stick to my Lotus Herbals 3 in 1...don't like that white cast much!
