Skin Care Facial Sunscreen Neutrogena
67% would buy this product again - Overall Average Rating 3
Review on: Neutrogena - Neutrogena Healthy Defense SPF 45 Moisturizer w/ H
After reading about the new Helioplex formula, I had to try this. Helioplex is supposed to be more effective and better because it alows Avobenzone and Oxybenzone to work together to block the complete spectrum of UVA and UVB rays of the sun, similar to Mexoryl but for less than $10 bucks! I decided to go with a facial moisturizer with sunscreen which will save me time in the morning. I usually can't wear chemical sunscreens on my face, but this one didn't make my eyes burn or tear. I find the texture to be a bit thicker than a lotion and quite moisturizing. I think this would be suitable for normal to dry skin, which is what I have. When I first apply to my face, it feels a little sticky and makes my skin look shinny. I usually apply makeup next, but I won't wear it without makeup because of the shine. Not the greatest scent, but I don't care too much for smell because I dislike parfum products anyway.


Pros: moisturizing, cheap, sustain longer UVA absorbtion
Cons: sticky, smell, small tube (less than 2 oz)
Review on: Neutrogena - Ultra Sheer Dry-Touch Sunblock with Helioplex SPF
I have relatively oily skin and was really looking for a strong SPF sunscreen that was oil-free. I used the SPF 55 and it was awesome - my face didn't burn and it went on clean and was not oily for the rest of the day. Awesome product and will definitely buy again and again and again!!! 


Pros: light, non-oily
Cons: none
Review on: Neutrogena - Ultra Sheer Dry-Touch Sunblock with Helioplex SPF
I was very disappoined with the new formulation of  this sunblock. I used to use the older version without sunblock which was easily absorbed, giving a matte finish. This one is extremely greasy, even after a while, it remained greasy..so it's definitely not 'dry-touch'. I have combination acne-prone skin so it's not suitable for it. If you have dry skin though, you just might like it.
 
There reason I gave it 3 stars is because of the ingredients. Neutrogena makes some of the best sunscreens out there and for really affordable prices. Their sunscreens provide strong UVB+UVA active ingredients that are photostable. So, if you're willing to sacrifice the greasy feeling - this might be for you!


Pros: Price. Strong, photostable active UVA + UVB ingredients in
Cons: Very greasy.
