Neutrogena Ultra sheer Dry Touch Sunblock SPF 50+ Review
Hi Everyone,
The weather in Bangalore is cool and pleasant as always. We don’t get very harsh sun during these months and hopefully in the coming month. I do make sure that my skin remains protected from UVA and UVB rays before stepping out. Applying a sunblock is a must if you are spending a lot of time outdoors. Today I am going to review my favorite sunblock which I have been using for 6 years now and I purchase it every time. I keep one tube handy even when I have already any other brand to check out and review.

My opinion on the product:-
I tan very easily and needed a sunblock while I was holidaying in Goa 6 years back. I researched online and saw the reviews of this product and immediately got this at my next visit to store. At first I purchased the big tube of 88 ml and used it when I was on vacation. I even applied this on my daughter’s skin she was 5 years then.
I was really happy to see that it was sweat proof and even waterproof and good for beaches when you spend most of the time near sea, sun and sand. We were there in group where some of them were using another brand sunblock which used to come out with sweat but not mine. This sunblock passed harsh UVA and UVB rays test, and sweat test. I immediately became fan of my Neutrogena ultra-sheer. I even applied this on my daughter’s whole body while she was taking swimming lessons few years back. I believed it protected her skin in swimming pool too.
It comes in white color tube with light blue screw open cap. The cream is thick and creamy which can be rubbed into skin effortlessly. It have very mild and clean fragrance and can be used by men too. In summers I don’t bother applying any moisturizer under this sunblock as it is moisturizing enough. Once I applied moisturizer under my sunblock and it made me sweat like pig under sun so I avoid that. But during winters, I apply a good moisturizer under my sunblock. It did not irritate my skin as my skin becomes a little sensitive in summers. It also did not break me out as it is non comedogenic, light and non-greasy.
It is not heavy on my skin and is very lightweight which gives matte effect. It has Helioplex, which gives superior sun protection. The sun is stronger here in Bangalore around April and May and this sunblock is the only one I trust to protect myself from tanning. I usually wear in under any foundation or BB cream and it gives a little glow to my skin. It easily goes with any type of makeup and does not look patchy or greasy. I have been using this for 6 years and recommend this to everyone.
I absolutely adore this and will continue to buy this one and will check out the one with high SPF too. It can be used by men and women as it does not have any flowery fragrance. EWG recommends avoiding products labeled higher than SPF 50 on lids so I find it OK for kids above 5 years. I only need a pea size for my full face.

- Equipped with exclusive Helioplex technology
- Dry-touch feature lends matte effect
- Nourishes and moisturize skin
