Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry Touch Sunblock Spf 50 Review

Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry Touch Sunblock SPF 50+ Review

Packaging

The sunblock comes in a neat blue and white soft squeeze tube with a screw cap. This makes it easy to squeeze the product out when it starts to run out. Unlike most sunblock lotions, the Neutrogena UltraSheer Dry Touch Sunblock SPF 50+ (PA+++) does not have a runny consistency. Instead, it is thick and creamy. But, again, unlike most other sunblocks, it is easily absorbed into your skin with quick massage, without leaving behind a film of grease. The product also has a very light lotion-like fragrance, making it perfect for those who prefer products that do not have a strong fragrance.

My Experience With Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry Touch Sunblock SPF 50+

This is, definitely, no doubt, one of my absolute favorite products. I might be biased because of my love for Neutrogena’s products. I also use their Deep Clean Cleanser in the summers when my face tends to get really sweaty. I’ve been using this sunblock on and off since 2013 when I was in college. I was a bit hesitant at first to purchase this product because you can find other sunblocks that are way more budget-friendly (being a student, this was an issue). But once I got it, I realized that a little product goes a long way, and so, the price is actually quite reasonable. I remember, back then, it gained a lot of popularity because of its PA+++ formula and protection against UVA rays. I was swimming in the summer and desperately needed a waterproof sunblock. I did quite a bit of research, and let me tell you, I was NOT disappointed. I apply the sunblock once before leaving to work and again on my way back home. I love the subtle fragrance and how it feels on my skin. I have a teeny blackhead problem, which flares up when I use too many products. But Neutrogena UltraSheer Dry Touch Sunblock SPF 50+ (PA+++) does not cause this issue. It also helps keep my skin moisturized to a certain extent. I will definitely rebuy it as I have been doing for a couple of years now. Shelf Life: 24 months Rating: I don’t do this very often, but I’m giving this product a 5/5.

I would recommend this product to EVERYONE. It suits all skin types because of how extremely light it is on your skin. And since it is so perfect for the summer, it can be used all year round too.

Indian summers, too, can be handled. You just need the right products by your side to help you get through. Have you used Neutrogena UltraSheer Dry Touch Sunblock SPF 50+ (PA+++)? Tell us about your experience in the comments section below.
