I absolutely love this sunscreen. I am very vigilant about applying 1/2tsp of sunscreen on my face and neck to get the proper protection, and I find a lot of other sunscreens get greasy when you use that amount, but this does not. It dries to a really nice matte finish, which serves as a primer underneath my foundation which is a real bonus for me - the fewer products the better, I say. I'll definitely be repurchasing this when I run out. My only complaint is the price - it's 3x here as it is in the US!!!

Tips: Make sure you put 1/4tsp on your face and 1/4tsp on your neck. Using any less than that means you really compromise the amount of protection that you are getting.
This sunblock is my favourite. I received a little sample and as soon as I ran out of that I went out to purchase it. I was a bit surprised by the price, I'm used to paying about half that for a sunblock. But the ones I had been using were quite greasy and sticky, whereas this one really is Ultra sheer and I think the extra cost is worth that. It comes out quite thick but when it goes on my skin can breath and I'm not causing extra breakouts with a heavy, oily block. It has a nice light fragrance and great protection, have never been burnt while using it.
A great sun screen. I like Neutrogena products, and this is no exception. It's a nice, light consistency and it doesn't feel greasy at all. I have sensitive skin and my skin has never reacted to it. Good quality and will definitely repurchase.
This product most certainly works but feels quite yuck on the skin quite a heavy dryness it feels on the skin I would not recommend this product to anyone that already has dry skin or uses a heavy full coverage foundation
This sunscreen feels like it has great coverage, and isn't oily at all. Even though i have dry skin, it doesn't flake, and feels great. Only problem is that it feels a little powdery, so perhaps it falls off through the day? At least it doesn't feel like you're rubbing oil onto everything you touch. The sunscreen is enough for shopping around malls (ie. botany), but probably not for a picnic out in summer.
I hate hate hate getting burnt so I always try go for a higher SPF so when I forget to reapply i'm usually covered. Often when I apply sunscreen to my face it is overbearing and oily, this is the total opposite - it absorbs really fast doesn't make your skin oily, the smell isn't overpowering and doesn't linger. In all honesty I don't even notice I have sunblock on when wearing this :) go neutrogena!
Tips: Apply before your make up everyday then you will never get caught out - lets avoid those wrinkles for as long as possible :)
this ones not for me, I used it a couple of times and at first I liked it - like it says it is dry touch, nice consistency that does not leave my face oily, however it made me breakout like crazy, i think there's definitely better out there.
This is a lovely sunblock, makes a lovely base for makeup as well, bonus. I've tended to put to much on and it can tend to sit on the skin. It does have a slight smell does a complete blockout for me, so a little goes a long way and does last all day. Because it's a dry block it does keep the shine on your face down so good when your very hot and the sun exposure is extreme. A good size tube to take away.
Tips: It does seam to go on better when your face is completely dry and your moisturiser has soaked in.
I have used this sunscreen for a few years. I use it under my make up in summer and on the mountain in winter. What first drew me to this product was the huge SPF, 85! Come on, can't beat that! Then once I tried it I was sold! It doesn't feel like a normal sunscreen on my skin it really is dry-touch. It feels like sunscreen in my hands but once applied to my face it dries to a primer-ish feel. This means it doesn't make my face oily, yay! It has a nice smell and lasts forever! It still allows my skin to breath even when I wear make up over the top, and it doesn't break me out, which is a huge deal because I am very prone to breakouts. So happy with this sunscreen :)
I don't think I have ever used a better Sunblock before. It really did go on dry, yes it is a thicker consistency then I have been used too but that did not make it harder to rub in (we all hate that white/pale look right?) It does leave a slight shine to the skin but I it's not that super greasy look that you so often get with other sunscreens. I am also fond of the smell - slightly floral? Another great benefit its the SFP of 85+. I am not really a hat wearer so when I walk my dog I just apply sunscreen & this was the first year I didn't get even a little bit burnt.
Tips: Can be applied on your face prior to makeup because it is so lightweight it just feels like a moisturiser. A little goes a long way.
