Neutrogena Clear Face Liquid Lotion Sunscreen

I'm in the sun about a half hour a day walking most days and in the car about a half hour a day and it's currently summer. I also recently started putting on a heavy duty acne treatment that makes your skin sun sensitive. That being said, I was really happy with how little product I needed to cover my shoulders and face. It comes out white and smells lightly like a traditional sunscreen and the scent dissipates. When it absorbs into your skin on application the white vanishes. It didn't dry out my face nor did I notice an increase in moistureI put a matte moisturizer on in the morning and this picture was taken after blotting my face about 5 hours later with a little shine I had (then applying this product). It was matte to the look and touch and stayed that way for hours after! I was happy with that and actually feel like it did a better job with mattefying than my moisturizer does, though it could have been a mix of the two.No redness after sun exposure after, it was lightweight on my face and I'm happy about the purchase!

I was looking yet again for a facial sunscreen for summer to use under makeup. I'm not very faithful about using sunscreen. I know I should be, yet living up north and being one who stays indoors a lot, I don't worry about it like I should. But when summer comes, I try to wear one most days. But I hate the way they feel, and every year I am on the hunt for one that is not greasy or heavy, won't cause breakouts, and works well under makeup. And is not expensive, to boot. That seems to be a really hard combination to find. The Neutrogena Ultra Sheer is sort of close, but I still find it feels to greasy and heavy on my skin. I gave this one a try this year, and I really like it. As I apply it, I feel like oh no, this is going to be greasy and heavy, too. But no, as soon as I am done applying, it disappears. I really don't feel it on my skin after that. It doesn't leave a white cast once it is applied, and it works well under my makeup. It seems to offer great sun protection. I am very fair and burn easily and I have had no problems. It is a generously sized tube for the price. I use it on my neck and chest, as well. I have had no problem with my eyes stinging as I use it under them. Of course, I am careful not to get it my eyes. No new pimples since using it, no rashes or other irritation either. I think it's a good product, and I recommend it.

Great sunscreen that goes on clear with no noticeable scent. I use on my face and also arms and legs.

I’ve admittedly not been the greatest about wearing sunscreen, but decided recently it’s time to take things seriously. So I purchased this sunscreen in the hopes that it would serve its purpose, while also being gentle on my acne-prone skin (because having acne at 28 is so cute).So…it did protect me from the sun, meaning that I didn’t get burned; HOWEVER, I had the unfortunate realization that I’m HIGHLY allergic to chemical-based sunscreens.(All those years of experiencing itchy hives the day after sunscreen application and I just chalked it up to being sunburned, and lowkey thought I was allergic to the sun; yes, I am a few sandwiches short of a picnic)I have the worst hives on my neck, around my eyes and sporadically all over my face, and I absolutely want to peel my skin off with a cheese grater.BUT it didn’t break me out so I guess that’s a bonus.TLDR: It served its purpose of being anti-sunburn and gentle on acne-prone skin, but it’s horrible if you’re allergic to sunscreens that aren’t mineral-based. Lesson learned.

Great all around. Not oily like some other versions. Goes on smooth.

I've been using this sunscreen for 5-6 years now. Other sunscreens have caused me to breakout. Using this lightweight face sunscreen gives me the protection without causing any breakouts.

My husband’s go-to sunscreen.We purchase this again and again!Slightly on the thicker side, but works well.

The Neutrogena Clear Face Sunscreen SPF 30 is a decent option if you have acne-prone or sensitive skin and want something that won’t clog pores. It’s lightweight, absorbs fairly quickly, and doesn’t feel overly greasy, which is a plus.However, it can be hard to blend in to my skin, leave a slightly shiny finish, and it stings a bit if my skin is irritated or if it gets near my eyes. It also has that classic sunscreen scent, which frankly I’m over. These companies can do better.Overall, it’s a solid, basic sunscreen for everyday use, but there are other options out there that feel more comfortable or have a more skin-friendly finish and ingredients. I ended up finishing the tube on my arms and legs.I have also purchased this in SPF 55 and my feelings are the same, but since it was SPF 55 I did wear it outside for long periods. With replication I avoided getting burned, so that's good.
