I just finished the 1.7 fl oz bottle of this sunscreen. It's my favorite for daily face use. It doesn't irritate my skin, nor does it leave an ugly white cast (brown girl friendly). It plays well unde...Read more

I don't know why I keep buying Neutrogena sunscreens in the hope that they are going to improve their formula and *this time* maybe it will work. Sucker for punishment, me. PROS: - Easily available -...Read more

I rarely wear makeup, but I always wear this high SPF moisturizer. I don't mind the smell of sunscreen, and my BB cream seems to do just fine over it.

This SPF 50 moisturizer provides UVA/UVB protection. I'm surprised at the mixed reviews. I find it to be light feeling for such a high SPF and it just barely has the "sunscreen" smell to it. I've prev...Read more
