Neutrogena Dry Touch Sunblock Review

I bought this sunscreen twice. The first time I bought it, it worked great, and I loved it. It worked exactly as advertised, it didn't feel greasy on the skin, and I was completely happy with it. But the second time I bought it, I noticed that after application, no matter how I applied it (patting in or rubbing in), not long afterwards I would get bits of the product flaking off my face, making it look like I had dry skin all over. It's very unfortunate as I really liked this sunscreen the first time around. I noticed the packaging had changed very slightly, so it's possible the formula was also adjusted.

Best sunscreen i’ve ever used!!

been using this sunscreen for around 3 years now and it’s a daily essential, it leaves a nice matte finish and doesn’t leave the skin feeling heavy. Also goes such a long way. I have the travel size too now and always have it on the go. Great for all seasons.

Neutrogena Dry Touch Sunblock

I love this sunblock, it’s dry touch non greasy so when used on my face doesn’t cause blemishes. At 50 plus I had found this sunscreen provided good protection for my face. As it’s a smallish tube with a bit of a price tag I use other sunscreen for my body. I have sensitive skin and eyes when perspiring in the sun I find that it stays put and doesn’t run into my eyes five stars for that.

Tips: I use this sunscreen daily over my moisturiser and under my makeup to protect my skin from the sun.

Sunscreen away

This is a great sunscreen which really protects skin from sunlight quite well. My favourite thing about this sunscreen is the fact that it doesn’t feel sticky or heavy on the skin, in fact, it doesn’t even feel like there’s anything on. Yet it protects skin just like any good sunscreen would.

Tips: Re-apply for continuous protection

Total protection

I was put on to this sunscreen through a scar Physio - it’s one that they recommend for best protection. I’ve used lots of other neutrogena products, but never the sunscreen so was eager to try.

It comes in a relatively small tube, and is quite expensive compared to other brands so it was a little bit of a shock! I figured it was worth a try though seeing as it came with glowing reviews, and anything that is extra good at fighting UVA has to be good right?

The product is a softly scented white cream. You only need a small amount as it spreads easily. This absorbs quite quickly, and doesn’t seem to leave any residue at all behind. No horrible greasy or smelly sunscreen feel - winning!

I didn’t experience any sunburn whatsoever with this sunscreen despite numerous days lazing in the pool and at the beach. Best of all - there was no irritation. No horrible weeping eyes; even with all the heat and sweat, the product didn’t run at all.

Tips: This stuff is amazing but spendy so I’m keeping it for my face as it was so good, and using a cheaper brand on the rest of the body.

Amazing sunscreen

I really like this sunscreen. It is one of the best that I have used. I am very pale, and if I am going to be exposed to the sun, then sunscreen is a must in order to avoid getting burnt.

This sunscreen comes in an 85ml tube. The tube is mainly white in colour, fading to blue at the top. The sunscreen factor is 50+, and it claims to cover both UVA and UVB rays. It is also water-resistant. The sunscreen itself is a white cream, but it feels dry when it goes on. It is easy to squeeze from the tube and to massage onto skin. The scent is very mildly perfumed. It does not smell like sunscreen at all.

In the past a lot of sunscreens I have used have been greasy. They have felt slimy going onto the skin and left a greasy residue behind. Something about a lot of brands of sunscreen have also irritated my eyes. I found that my eyes would water just from having sunscreen near them on my face. What makes this sunscreen so great is that it is “dry-touch” as in, non-greasy, and it feels so light on the skin. The other amazing thing is that it does not irritate my skin or my eyes. They do not water at all when I wear this. The third benefit is that you can apply this directly over moisturiser, and then apply makeup over the top, and the sunscreen does not affect the application of the foundation or of any other makeup.

I have not suffered any skin burn while wearing this. It seems to be very effective at preventing sunburn and blocking out sun exposure. This is my preferred brand of sunscreen, especially for my face. A go-to for summer.

My new go to

I bought the SPF100 of this product on a recent trip overseas, but have been using it daily since getting home. Its non greasy enough to use every day under foundation, or without - as its not shiny. I haven't been burnt since using it so am assuming it is working! Doesn't smell super sunscreen-y either.

Tips: You don't need a lot so don't squeeze too hard!

Dependable

Of all the sunscreens I have used in my life, this one remains the most reliable. I have been using it, and its earlier iterations, for around 10 years. It doesn't smell or feel greasy, looks fine under makeup and doesn't come off in water. My only problem with it is the price - it can be pretty expensive when you have to use it everyday in summer. However, it is good quality and doesn't irritate skin, so it is still worth it.

Tips: Buy it on special!

Actually matte

This sunscreen seriously stays matte all day even with my oily skin. I'm impressed and especially with the price as well. The smell is mininal, but gentle. The texture is watery and after maybe 10-15 minutes of application my face becomes dry to touch. However I really do need to emphasis if you have acne or breaking out putting this sun screen might sting your skin. I'm not sure why but I definitely feel it. It's not very painful and doesn't last long. Maybe my skin is sensitive, I don't know. It doesn't hurt when I put it on clear skin though.

Tips: Be cautious around breakout areas.

Best sunblock so far!

I have oily/combo skin that is prone to breakouts and I have not been satisfied with a sunblock until this one!

It's a thin consistency that just glides on, feels super light and dries the most matte of all sunscreens I've tried. Less of that greasy sunblock feeling! It's SPF 85 so l don't feel that I need to reapply every few hours.

Highly recommend and would 100% repurchase!
