I have been through SO MANY sunblocks in an aim to find a non-greasy, non-acne-inducing solution. Natural sunblock, oil free sunblock, zinc, high SPF, low SPF. Neutrogena is the only brand that has developed a formula which lives up to its claim of being 'dry touch.'
Admittedly, there is still going to be an element of greasiness to this formula for the first 20 minutes or so when applied. I've learnt to be patient and allow it to sink in, especially if I then want to put makeup on my face. But in general, this product definitely does deliver a more matte look on the face and body.
The thick formula also makes you feel like it is offering a thick layer of sun protection. I'm really glad that it is a high SPF, and I always feel confident wearing this during a long day outside. So long as I reapply it a couple of times a day, I have never suffered sunburn when using this.
Finally, the bottle is great! It will last you the whole summer, but is still small enough to fit in your hand bag/beach bag. I hate having to haul around massive pump bottles of sunscreen haha.
This is the only sunscreen I will ever ever ever use on my face! I’ve been using it nearly 10 years since a friend recommended it. I am prone to a shiny greasy face in summer and most sunscreens even oil free Matt blah blah blah claiming ones make it worse and makeup just melts off. This is awesome! Under makeup it stays matt and doesn’t make any makeup applied oily looking and not last long it’s almost like it provides a base! By itself it’s awesome too, stays matt and never looks greasy even straight after application! Love this product. I also use it on my arms and chest area which uses a lot more up for the size of the tube but it’s worth it!
