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!

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.

Leightweight - Non Greasy SPF

Really like this SPF for a lightweight formula that doesn't feel thick or greasy on the skin.

It dries quite quickly compared to other SPF products so you're not left feeling overly sticky and doesn't leave a white cast on the skin.

Good to wear underneath makeup products also!

Tips: Remember to top up your SPF frequently if you are wearing while in water!

Nice light cream

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.

This one's a keeper.

I have been using this daily under my makeup for at least two years and I am happy to keep buying it.

I'm always a fan of anything with a high SPF that doesn't make my foundation look terrible. It has a great non-greasy texture and doesn't feel too heavy. The added bonus is that it doesn't have a really typical sunscreen chemical smell to it and you barely notice that it’s there a few minutes after application.

I have never been caught out while wearing this one but admittedly I'm very vigilant about reapplication and staying out of the sun anyway.

Dry touch sunblock

Good product, didn't feel gluggy or greesy on my face like most sun screens and it seems to last for ages as I don't seem to need to apply heaps

Tips: Give it a good shake before using as the ingredients tends to separate

Perfect Face Sunblock

I used this over the summer specifically for my face and neck and it worked great. It has a lightweight clean feel as the packaging says. I found it easy to rub in and it didn't make my skin oily. I have quite sensitive skin and find it hard to find a sunblock for my face that doesn't make me itchy or breakout and this one was perfect. It has a light scent and I like that it has a high SPF of 85+. I would recommend to friends and family, especially those with sensitve skin. I will definitely be repurchasing this summer.

Tips: For the price I specifically use this for my face and neck and then purchase a cheaper sunblock for the rest of my body.

Best Sunscreen

The sunscreen is of thick consistency, but when you wear it on your skin it feels lightweight. The high SPF means that you only need to put the sunscreen on once and be protected from the sun.

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.

Pretty good.

I got this in a sample pack that Neutrogena were offering last year.

Sunblock is obviously something that is super important and yet almost every sunblock I had tried prior to this smelled bad, was greasy or too thick.

The scent in this is quite nice and fresh and the texture was just right. I liked that it was easy to blend into your skin and it didn't leave a greasy sheen on you.

Most importantly it works :) I purchased this early this year as the sample impressed me so much. I think the price is a little steep but sunblock is super important so I wasn't too upset about the price.
