Oteria Sun Care - Invisible Protection for Every Day

Gel-Based Sunscreen for All Skin Types. Broad-Spectrum Protection That You Actually Want to Wear.

Sun Care is the most non-negotiable step when it comes to skincare regimes. Sunscreens are important for broad-spectrum protection from UVA and UVB radiation.

Sunscreen That You Actually Want to Wear

Sunscreen can be the single most important product in your skincare arsenal. This is because it is responsible for preventing 90% of visible ageing of your skin. Yet, most people skip it because they hate the texture, thick, greasy pastes that leave a white cast and clog pores.

At Oteria, we solved the texture problem first without the sun care collection. Our Sun Care collection features advanced gel-based sunscreen designed specifically for Indian weather and skin types. Whether you have oily skin, wear heavy makeup, or just hate the feeling of product on your face, our formulas are engineered to be invisible, weightless, and effective.

Our sun care products are the final step in your "Rise" skincare ritual. It helps in locking your skincare while shielding you from the two biggest threats to your complexion - UV rays and Blue Light.

Meet The Hero - Sun-Kissed Sun Care Gel

Oteria Sun-kissed sun care gel is the star product in our suncare collection. It helps protect the skin from harmful Ultraviolet radiation from the sun when you walk out of your home. Our sunscreen is best for dry skin, oily & acne-prone skin, daily commuters and makeup wearers.

This sunscreen for oily skin changes your mind about sunscreen. The Sun-Kissed Sun Care Gel is a next-generation formula that combines high SPF protection with the lightweight feel of a water-based serum. Here's why our skin care gel-based sunscreen is best for your skincare arsenal.

• Zero White Cast - The sun care gel goes on clear and absorbs instantly, making it perfect for all skin tones. No ghostly residue.
• Non-Comedogenic - Our gel-based sunscreen won't clog pores or cause breakouts, making it the best sunscreen for oily skin.
• Matte Finish - It controls excess sebum, acting as a primer that keeps your face shine-free all day.
• Cooling Effect - Infused with Aloe Vera and Vegetable Pear Extract, it actively cools down heat-stressed skin, reducing redness upon application.

Gel vs. Cream - Why Gel-Based Sunscreen is Superior

If you have ever felt like your face is sweating under your sunscreen, you were likely using a heavy cream. Here is why a sunscreen gel is the upgrade you need.

• Texture - Gels are water-based, and they make a light sunscreen gel. They absorb into the skin rather than sitting on top of it like a mask.
• Breathability - Daily gel-based sunscreen allows sweat to evaporate naturally, preventing that suffocating feeling in humid weather.
• Layering - Sunscreen for oily skin absorbs completely. Hence, they don't ball up under foundation or concealer.

For dry skin in winter, a sunscreen cream is fine. But for complete protection in the summer heat, daily sunscreen gels are best to go with. In addition to this, daily wear, humid climates, and oily skin, a gel-based sunscreen formula is the undisputed champion.

Broad Spectrum Protection From the Sun

You can see the words "Broad Spectrum" on the label, but what does it do? It means you are protected against both types of damaging ultraviolet rays.

• UVA (Ageing Rays) - These penetrate deep into the dermis, destroying collagen and causing wrinkles and dark spots. They can pass through glass windows.
• UVB (Burning Rays) - These attack the surface, causing sunburn and immediate redness.

Oteria sun care gel-based sunscreens provide robust Broad Spectrum Protection, acting as a shield against photo-ageing (premature wrinkles) and hyperpigmentation.

The "Rise" Ritual - How to Apply Sunscreen Gel Correctly

Sunscreen gels work correctly if you use enough quantity of it. Here is the right method to use for the best results.

• The Order - It is always the last step of your skincare (after moisturiser) and the first step of your makeup.
• The Amount - Use the "Two-Finger Rule." Squeeze two strips of gel along your index and middle fingers. This is the amount needed for your face and neck.
• The Timing - Apply 15 minutes before stepping out to allow the protective film to form.
• The Re-Up - If you are outdoors or sitting near a window, reapply every 3 hours. For easy reapplication over makeup, try using a damp beauty sponge to press the gel in.

Who Needs Oteria Sunscreen Collection?

• The Commuter - Exposed to pollution and sun daily? This creates a barrier against both.
• The Office Worker - Sitting in front of a screen? You need protection from HEV (Blue Light), which also causes pigmentation.
• The Acne-Prone - Terrified of breakouts? Our oil-free gel formula is your safest bet.
• The Anti-Ageing Seeker - Want to look young? Sunscreen is more effective than any wrinkle cream.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

1. Do I need sunscreen if I stay indoors?

Yes. UVA rays (the ones that cause ageing) can penetrate through glass windows. Additionally, the blue light emitted from your laptop and phone screens can contribute to hyperpigmentation (melasma). Daily protection is essential, indoors or out.

2. Is SPF 30 enough?

For daily use (office, errands), SPF 30 blocks about 97% of UVB rays, which is excellent. For extended outdoor activities (beach, hiking), we recommend SPF 50. The key is reapplication, not just the number.

3. Will this sunscreen leave a white cast?

Absolutely not. The Sun-Kissed Sun Care Gel is formulated to be completely transparent once absorbed. It is suitable for all skin tones, from very fair to deep melanin-rich skin.

4. Can I skip moisturiser if I use sunscreen?

If you have very oily skin, yes. The Aloe Vera in our gel provides enough lightweight hydration that it can double as your morning moisturiser. If you have dry skin, layer it over your Face Cream.

5. Is it safe for sensitive skin?

Yes. We avoid harsh chemical irritants. The inclusion of soothing botanicals like Aloe helps calm sensitive skin that is prone to redness from heat.

6. Does it work under makeup?

It is one of the best primers you can use. Because it dries down to a natural matte finish, it creates a smooth canvas for foundation and helps your makeup last longer by preventing oil breakthrough.
