Excellent and Non-greasy Feb 25, 2010
I've used this product for over a year. I have normal skin and use glycolic acid products that don't include sunscreen. I apply this over my regular moisturizer in the morning and apply makeup over it. This doesn't make me break out like most suncreens do and it's a lot less expensive than the other highly recommended sunscreens. I do get a little shiny in the afternoon from it, but nothing excessive. Overall great product!
 Best sunscreen for combination/oily skin Sep 22, 2009
I have used the Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry-Touch sunscreen for years. It is the best formula for those with combination or oily skin. It works beautifully under makeup and never irritates the skin. I used to live in Houston, TX, so I can honestly say it has performed under the toughest conditions of heat and humidity. What can I say, I buy for my family and recommend it to friends. Enjoy, and keep shine and wrinkles at bay.

 hello Sep 05, 2009
This is one of the worst sun block formulations I have tried. Why?
1. This product is very greasy and makes my skin appear oily all day long. In fact, someone recently asked me if I was a little warm in our air-conditioned office since they noticed how "shiny" my skin appeared and assumed the oil on my skin was sweat.
2. When applying this product, I look like a ghost. The product is very visible and it makes my skin appear unnaturally white.
3. The product flakes off. The product leaves white flakes on my skin when I apply it and these flakes are hard to remove from eyebrows and hair. In other words, the sunblock doesn't get absorbed fully into the skin.
4. Applying this sunblock sometimes makes my skin turn red and stay red for a few hours.
I used this product for a couple of days then threw it out, so I can't say whether or not it works. I'm currently trying other products (not neutrogena!)

One of the best suncreens I've ever used Jul 10, 2009
The thing I like the best about this sunscreen is the light feeling of it on my skin. It feels neither greasy nor drying. And it doesn't interfere with my makeup if I'm wearing any, or block my pores. It has a very light, pleasant fragrance, not overwhelming like some sunblock products. It has Helioplex, which helps prevent damaging UVA rays from penetrating deep under skin's surface and since it's SPF-55 I feel like my skin is well protected. I've never gotten a sunburn when I've worn this product out in the sun and my skin is very fair, so it doesn't take much.
I used to be a sun worshiper until I got a little older and started getting wrinkles. I still love to be out in the sun but I thankful for products like this that feel great on my skin and keep it protected. I keep plenty of it on hand and try to remember to use it whenever I go out.

Perfectly good sunscreen, I personally prefer the 'mist' alternative Jul 09, 2009
It's good but, when it comes to convenience, the Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Body Mist Sunblock Spf 70 5 Oz. is better in my view. We almost stopped using the 'tubes' a couple of years ago when 2 things happened: most of our kids grew up and we discovered the 'mist' sprays. We never felt like we needed the lotions except for our little baby girl.
As far as effectiveness, both are good when it comes to being tolerated by the skin and NOT blocking our pores but I do have a preference for the mist myself. They both seem to be water-resistant to some degree. I will not reapply the sunblock after one swim session but, mostly out of prudence, I will reapply it after the second. We've tested the Neutrogena sunblocks under the Florida sun in June and July for the past several years and, no sunburns so far.
- UVA/UVB protection
- Helioplex for keeping the product effective longer
- feels VERY light on the skin
- discreet, sexy odor
- stays effective for several hours
- I don't need to re-apply it after swimming
I would recommend this tube to anyone who doesn't like the spray but, like I said, I like the spray even more.

True story. I know it's true because it happened to me, a few days ago.
One lazy Saturday afternoon, having completed my 100 or so laps, I am in the back of the house, reading a book and sipping some drink, Scotch and soda. A bunch of kids are splashing in the pool, dogs over-excited. I notice T. circling around, trying to look busy, a hesitant, uncomfortable look on her face. She's my wife's girlfriend, a neighbor, and she's married too, 3 little girls, her 6 yr. old our 6 yr. old's best friends. While all this is going on, I keep reading, enjoying the day, sipping my drink.
To make it short, she seems to find the needed energy to address me directly.
A., she says, what are you wearing?
Svimvear I says (a joke, she's from Russia).
No, no, no, she says, what perfume are you wearing? Or is it your aftershave?
What are you talking about? No perfume, says I. I just came out of the pool.
But, A., you smell soooo good, says she. My husband never smells like this. Why can't he smell like you do?
Ahhhh... I finally realize, it's GOT to be the Neutrogena Ultra Sheer I'm wearing.
True story. Feel free to draw your own conclusions.
