Sunscreen, as far as I know, is for skin protection from UV radiation by sun, not for whitening so better to listen the professional (esp, the woman since they seems more advanced in this kind like @athayanezant).

No prob, I've been adapted to Surabaya's hell hot noon lol. Ahem, asiding that, I also thinking about providing suncreen, but let's wait I get some money (uang saku kuliahku itu jatahnya harian jadi kalau gak kuliah ya gak ada sangu/uang jajan kecuali pas mau nongkrong/nugas sama temen dan minta uang jajan wkwk)

oh I think I need to say this, there's no real products can actually whiten your skin. all the skincare products you could find is all just to maintain your skin and make your skin healthier and looks brighten not whiten.

Since SEA basic skin tone is brown and some got "kuning langsat" (how do I said it in English tho?) so I think there's no real white people in Indonesia except for descendants from noni-noni Belanda, or Chindo, or some others. It's just got brighten since skin tone is basic inheritance of our bloodline.

@Evans01 let's calculate this, commonly 1 tube of sunscreen is around 40ml, and you have to use it ±2ml per apply, if you have to use it twice per day in everyday so you gotta need at least 3 tubes for 30days.
but here's my trick:
if I don't go outside, I don't put on any sunscreen, I only have to avoid a sunlight entering my room.
if I have to be outside from 8am to 4pm, I have to use it twice (when I'm about to go out and reapply at 12pm), but if I go out around 3pm, I only have to use it once.
damn... I think I'm yapping too much about this stuff 😅

damn my bloodline!
but don't worry I believe I'm a 100% local. I'm a proud Indonesian. idc.
@Evans01 true. and I'm more putih langsat than kuning langsat. my ancestors is kinda... Nihon and Chinese but we also have Dutch from grandma.
damn my bloodline!

also, SPF 30 PA+++ is good enough for a sunny day but SPF 50 PA++++ is the strong one to protect your skin.
reapply your sunscreen after 4hours and still don't get yourself under a direct sunlight at 12 - 2pm.
