I had high hopes for this product, but ultimately I'm left feeling disappointed and I won't be repurchasing or finishing the bottle. Even though this sunscreen does the job and I don't tan at all -- the lotion is thick and doesn't seem to absorb, no matter how many times I rub it in. I'm then left with a white, shiny cast which does not look attractive on my light skin at all!!

This sun block has a nice smell lovely and creamy texture and does the trick, no tanning with this block on, but it just doesn't tend to soak in, it sits on the skin and you can see it white streaks of cream and any thing floating in the air sticks to you, I feel quite tacky with it on. It does block out the sun but it's not for me.
Although this stuff felt heavy on my skin & a bit greasy because it didn't absorb, it definately did what it was supposed to do. ven when sweating quite a bit it stayed put & protected my skin. I have very pale skin & burn easily, so it is important to have a good sunscreen & this is a great one if you don't mind the first few things I mentioned
This product does not work with me at all.. I have been stuck a few times having to buy this from gas stations when we have forgotten our normal sunscreen..
I hate it. Its thick, greasy leaves an annoying white thick UV barrier on skin that looks ridiculous.. It stains clothing and it makes my skin break out as it struggles to breathe..
This is not a good sunscreen at all.. And I would only use it if I had to!
i have tried so many sun blocks for my kids and they always seem to get burnt so I decided to give this ago and what do you know it actually covered the kids they would go swimming and we wouldn't have to re apply it again they were covered for hours especially living at the beach the mixture of sun sand and salt water this is the best ever
Tips: Go and buy it your family will love you as they know that they are going to be protected from the sun and the harmful rays
As a lover of the out-door activities (especially at summer) I felt that this product is a bit too much for me. It's too heavy on my skin takes a while till the whole lotion starts to "fade" once you applied it (especially on my part my skin color: tan!) after the whole massaging the lotion into the skin it leaves that sticky feeling which makes it really uncomfortable; not really ideal if you are out and about getting all sweaty and re-applying the lotion every 2 hours. It does it's job tho (in the positive side of things).
I found this product quite hard to review as there were a lot of things I liked and a lot of things I didn't like about it.
I feel that it definitely did its job of protecting from sunburn as I was never burnt once while wearing it and it did help moisturise my skin well but was quite a thick formula which went on greasily and didn't soak into my skin.
At the beach and after going in the water, my skin felt so nice and silky smooth but I think I would prefer to use two different products - a sunscreen to protect my skin and then a body butter or lotion afterwards for the moisturisation but that could just be me.
This is my favourite sunscreen. It's so light it goes on beautifully. It actually feels like a moisturiser. Most sunscreens are thick and sticky and don't smell good but not Nivea. It smells pleasant and is easily absorbed. Gives great protection. A real winner in all categories. It's the only one I'll buy now.
Tips: Use it even in winter as you still get the rays
Perhaps mine wasn't so great because the reviews seem good overall, but mine didn't really absorb very well which was disappointing. There were small bits in it and it just left the skin looking pasty and white rather than actually absorbing. As far as sun protection? I guess it's okay, the same as other sunblocks, but I prefer their spray much more.
Tips: Spray bottle for the win!
Unfortunately this product doesn't agree with me and I end up reacting to it, particularly on my face. It is easy to apply, smells better than other suncreens, but I feel it is a little expensive for what it is.
Tips: Don't use if you have sensitive skin!
