I know that we need to apply sunblock when outdoor. How about when at home/indoor and when using pc?

home lighting and pc has little amts of UV rays right? my guess is, if u want to be very protective, then maybe can apply a lower SPF sunscreen at home..

certain type of lighting (eg. fluorescent, halogen) n screen (eg. old style non lcd) emit more uv.
so, if u experience fair amt of exposure to such, by all means, apply uva/uvb protectors.

Whenever I'm using pc at home without wearing any sunscreen, I can "feel" my face a bit warm feeling. However, if I put sunscreen, not much of that feeling. Don't know if it's true for others or only me...

By the way, after using sunscreen, do we need to use makeup remover after that or only use normal cleanser to wash off?

Marchegreen, for me I use a normal cleanser. But I follow up with a scrub to ensure my pores are squeaky clean.
Also i think its best to not use suncream at home as we need a little uv(it contains vitamin D) to be healthy. However, when going out be sure to protect yourself with a sunscreen of at least SPF 15. Even when there are clouds as sunlight is not blocked fully by clouds:)
