124 people. 12 weeks. Independently monitored.
We commissioned an independent dermatologist panel to run a 12-week, 124-participant trial across Mumbai, Delhi, and Bangalore. Participants were instructed to use Underlying Dermiqué SPF 50+ as their sole sun protection. Photographs were taken under controlled lighting at week 0, 4, 8, and 12.
Lead dermatologists graded acne severity, post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, sebum production, and barrier integrity at each visit using the IGA-Acne and Hi-Score scales. Full study available upon request.
What actually changed.
Every metric was measured by an independent dermatologist, not self-reported. Average improvement at week 12.
The same face,
twelve weeks apart.
Photographed under identical lighting. Skin not retouched, not filtered, not “smoothed.” Shared with full written consent.
First clear week in over a decade by week 6. Cystic frequency reduced from weekly to once in trial period.

Finally something that doesn't betray me
Eight years of cystic acne. Spent over ₹50K on derm visits. This is the only sunscreen that hasn't triggered a flare. Three weeks in and my skin feels like it's exhaling.
My husband noticed before I did
"You look different — happier?" That was week three. I hadn't told him I was using anything new. That's when I knew it was working.
Photographs like skin again
Mineral SPFs make me look gray on Zoom. This blends into Indian skin like it was made for it — because it was. Wedding photos finally look like me.
I stopped checking the mirror
That sounds dramatic but if you know, you know. I used to check 20 times a day to see what was forming. Now I just… don't. Six weeks in.
Refund test passed (didn't need it)
I emailed asking what the refund process is — got a real reply in 6 minutes from a real person who wasn't trying to talk me out of it. Ended up not refunding because it was working.
Postpartum skin recovery
Nothing felt safe to use while breastfeeding. This was the first thing my dermatologist green-lit. Worth every rupee for that alone.
13 years of acne, 12 weeks of clear
I'm not crying, you're crying. This is the longest stretch of clear skin I've had since I was 11.
Took a few weeks but worth it
Honest review: weeks 1–2 felt nothing special. Around week 3, oil dropped massively. By week 6, no new active acne. Patience required but it works.
The texture is everything
I have very oily skin and EVERY sunscreen pills under makeup. This one doesn't. I don't know how. I don't ask questions anymore.
