Hello.
Thanks for the query.
Melagard is a good sunscreen and as you mentioned you are getting pigmentation, use of sunscreen is must.
Your problem is that in winter your skin is dry,and lot of sweating in summer.
Here is my suggestion for you.
1. In winters use melagard, as it has moisturiser.
2. In summers that is now you better use aquagel sunscreen from ranbaxy. It has water resistant property.
Thank you.
