Most Helpful Positive Review First Impression is good This is a very lightweight sunscreen that I really don't feel in my skin. I haven't tried it with makeup yet, but it doesn't change the texture of the moisturizer I normally use. I did use it in my eye area, and I've had no burning or stinging issues so far. However, I do find the smell to be pretty strong, despite the fact that it is advertised as "fragrance free" on the Neutrogena website. This is probably because a couple of the anti-oxidants (Ginger root extract and Chrysanthemum Parthenium Flower/Leaf/Stem Juice) also function as fragrance. So, they're choosing to ignore the fact that these are also fragrances as they are adding them as anti-oxidants. I also really wish they hadn't added colorants to it because they are really unnecessary. I will probably re-purchase as I know that I need to wear sunscreen daily and this is the first one that I've been able to tolerate on my face. I got the face mist too so that I can top up the sunscreen throughout the day...which I haven't tried yet.
Most Helpful Critical Review Break out? I struggle with adult acne but have been able to get it under control with the skin care routine my dermatologist has recommended. I always cross reference ingredient lists for any comedogenic
ingredients before purchasing, this sunscreen does not appear to have any. Which is why I was surprised to find myself suffering from a break out on my cheeks and jaw line. This is the only new product I have incorporated into my routine so it leads me to believe this is the culprit. Bummer because I do enjoy the texture and the fact that there is no cast.

Burned Eyes & Irritated Skin 1
PM1988 from Las Vegas, NV
So disappointed in this product. Was so excited to try this product during my recent vacation. Within minutes of applying my eyes were burning so badly I couldn't see. I had to hide in my hotel room for hours until the burning subsided. Then, I noticed my skin was severely irritated from it. Bumps all over my face that have now turned into dry flakes over my entire face. So very frustrating. Instead of vacation glow, I look like the Sahara desert.
Love thisss butt 4
Mazal from Brooklyn, New York
Love it,invisible,affordable,doesnt sting the eyes or broke me out and layers well under makeup but it does have red coloring it. Even tho it personally doesnt break me out ive heard it can cause breakouts from some people

I will use this product again. The texture is very watery
Perfect protection for under my makeup 5
amyatshore from Jacksonville, FL
I put on a little moisturizer, then I put this on, then makeup. I don't think it is necessary to use a moisturizer this can replace that step to be sure. I love this. My makeup stays in place. Not greasy and no white cast. Neutrogena face products usually sting me but this does not!
Terrible packaging 1
AiMG from Los Angeles
I was so excited about trying this item. After a long wait, the items came today all broken & leaked. I'm not sure how they will resolve this damaged items because there is no place to request return/exchange on the order detail page.

Love this lotion! Feels great on my face. Couldn't find it in a store so ordered it online.
Broke me Out in Hives! 1
Sarah from CO
I put this on over moisturizer and within minutes I had broken out in blotchy, red, itchy spots! Even after washing it off, my face was so itchy and red for hours afterwards. I will say the texture was nice and it blended in nicely to my skin- no white cast.
Great protection 5
Kal343 from undisclosed
This is my favorite face SPF I've ever used. It goes on clear It's not sticky or heavy. I have hyperpigmentation and this prevents new spots better than other SPF I have used.
Greasy!! 4
Pc from Bay Area
I like this, but it has too much oil on it and I think that is making me to have pimples. Overall Is great!!
Disappointing inclusion of dyes 1
TennisPlayer from California
I was disapointed to find that this sunscreen is orange. That's clearly because of the Red and Yellow DYES! Absolutely unnecessary. Will not buy again
My New Daily Sunscreen!! 5
DifromJersey from Wanaque, NJ
I love this. It offers a high level of SPF protection in an elegant light weight serum that makes my skin feel soft and hydrated. It works well under makeup, no pilling. It has a peachy tone that makes my skin look natural and glowy, no white cast. This replaces my previous favorite from Paula's Choice. It's more affordable and offers a higher SPF. Love it!
So close to perfect! 4
TriciaJ from Dallas, TX
This is a near-dupe for my beloved Ultra Sheer Liquid Sunscreen, and easier to find. It absorbs beautifully, almost no smell or scent, and layers easily under makeup. My only issue is that it can irritate my contacts but most sunscreens do. Have already emptied one bottle and happily repurchased!
Great for every day wear! 5
Mink from Denver Colorado
Great for daily wear. Goes on smooth & very light.
My most favorite daily sunscreen EVER! 5
MichelleSchae from Texas
I've tried many daily sunscreen products, and had basically given up, going without one most days. I'm 49, so that's not a great choice. But this new product is the BEST! it is very lightweight, it has a high level of protection, and it makes your skin a little glowy! That's the best part! It comes in a little bottles, but it only takes a small amount. I've never reviewed a skin care product! I want this one to stay around!!
Doesn't feel thick and sticky! 5
Rebecca22 from Glasgow, KY
Love this sunscreen. It blends in so easy and my hair doesn't get stuck to my face after I apply it. It does burn if it gets in your eyes though, but that's to be expected, I guess. Otherwise, highly recommend this product to all my Ulta addicts out there 😊 very satisfied with it.
Don't Sweat in this SPF 3

Finally! A great serum and sunscreen together! 5
Mimlifi from Central Virginia
I've just bought my second bottle after using daily since purchasing in May. My 68-year old skin looks absolutely luminous with it, and it's protected from the sun, too. Of course, I remember sunscreen (N's Daily Defense) and a hat as well. But I'm thrilled to have found this. Only wish the tube of Daily Defense Face came with an SPF rating higher than 60. But this SERUM rocks.
I'm on my 8th bottle! 5
Dr dray put me on from KS
This little bottle goes everywhere with me. I find myself keep repurchasing this over any other sunscreen, it's just so lightweight and glowy and works perfect under my makeup. There is a slight sting to the eyes but ONLY if I rub my eyes on accident. I don't notice a smell at all either. I recommend this to atleast try once to see if it's for you.
Will be purchasing again!! 5
Elizabeth1011648 from Kansas
To start, it works for all skin tones which I appreciate because there is no white cast left on my face. It doesn't smell like sunscreen and it feels so light when wearing :) It's a small bottle but you get a lot of product!! It's easy to travel with as well.
NICE SERUM OVERALL 4
Vwmsm from Germantown, md

*would recommend especially if this will be under makeup
Burns my eyes 2
Jimmy Oahu from Hi
I read the reviews and bought this sunscreen to see if it works well in summer. I like how smooth it is to apply. After 30 mins walking outdoors I started to feel my eyes burning(it happened to my friend as well) The burning feeling lasts for two days! This is not a sunscreen for people who sweat or outdoors in summer times
My favorite chemical sunscreen 4
Melasma from undisclosed
I love this sunscreen. It is moisturizing and fragrance-free. The only thing I wish is that it did not have the red dye stuff in it. It is also a little hard to get a hold of, with drugstores selling out fast. I wish it came in a bigger size option as well!
Not recommended 1
Joslyn from Fargo, ND
I was very excited to try this new sunscreen serum, but then feel so disappointed. The texture made my skin very sticky, changed the color of my skin and and also terribly irritated my eyes.
