Pros:

- DOES NOT BREAK ME OUT. The "non-comedogenic" label does not lie. All the other sunscreens I have tried have broken me out.
- so light that it doesn't even feel like sunscreen. If you are like me, and hate the sticky feel of most sunscreens, you will love this one.
- high SPF and PA protection. I spend time playing sports outdoors at school, so I need something that has good protection.

Cons:

- This product is great for people with oily skin. I unfortunately thought that because I sometimes get a shiny nose and forehead, I also have oily skin. Wrong. I have mixed/combination skin, and this product dries my face out a lot, especially my cheeks. Beware people with non-oily skin.
- Dries too quickly. This is probably just because I haven't used dry-touch sunscreens before though, so I'm still getting rubbing it in quickly. I always end up with white splotches.

As far as sunscreens go, this product is great. Just to find a sunscreen that doesn't clog pores is an achievement I think. I used to have moderate acne, and now that I finally cleared it up, I am conscious about finding products that won't break me out. Sunscreen is important for me because I have acne scars, and the sun would slow down the healing process and seal them in permanently. Dan always raves about the importance of sun protection, so before he develops an acne.org sunscreen, I recommend trying this product. :)

Pros:

REally is "dry" so my face doesn't look greasy! Offers regular sun protection too. Love the application.

Cons:

Smell is irritating, bu tusually I use it anyway because I'm vain and it is the only sunscreen that I can find with SPf30 that doesn't make me greasy!

Go with it, unless you're sensitive to smells.

A product I can trust. Simple as that

Pros:

Dries Quickly
Dries Matte
Non comedogenic

I am really liking this sun screen for my face. When the bottle sys fast drying they aren't kidding, this dries up quickly. It feels nice on my skin and isnt oily and greasy. What I like about this is it doesn't just sit on top of my face like oter sun screens. It is truly non comedogenic. My makeup goes on really well over it. It keeps my skin matte which is a big deal because other sunscreens make me look dewy and if I sweat it just sits under the sunscreen. It doesn't happen with this product. It doesn't smell like sunscreen to me it has a lemon scent to it. Which isn't my favorite but I wouldn't go a day without it. I'm using Aha and this product is saving me from sun damage.

Pros:

Goes on Sheer (which can be a con if u have dry skin), I like the smell (very guy friendly), Doesn't break me out

Cons:

Sheerness, which will only make u feel dryer if you have dry skin or flakiness from the bp, a bit oily/greasy (not a legit con, as all sunscreens make u feel oily/greasy), Doesn't have zinc oxide, which Dan raves about (has avobene instead)

I does the job. Simple as that. Doesn't break me out. Forehead is a bit oily, but 10 mins after I put it on, I use oil blotting sheets on my face to take out the oily and I'm okay for the most part

Pros:

protects from sun

Cons:

not sweat-proof, sort of clogs pores & irritates acne

This product is better than most when it comes to greasiness, it takes about 10-15 minutes to get to matte coverage. It isn't sweatproof, and several occasions it ran into my eyes while exercising. I also noticed it aggravated whiteheads a little. My pores are very sensitive to anything that coats them like makeup. I've had better results with gel sunscreen, try Bullfrog's gel (it doesn't moisturize though, contains alcohol)

Best Sunscreen I Have Found
I have oily skin and applying this makes my skin extremely oily for about an hour until it sets in. If I look closely, it also leaves a small amount of film on top of my skin and I can see where I had applied it. Other than that, this is a great sunscreen for use on the regimen. Until Dan releases his sunscreen (hopefully soon), I would recommend this product.

Good protection
I am only giving this product a 4 because I have read a lot that Neutrogena products are not natural enough and end up being bad for your skin. Sorry I can't remember all the details. But I think if I hadn't read that, I would have given it a 5 star. At the time I read it, I had just bought a TON of this particular product so I hated to just stop using it. I switched to a non-acne aggravating sunscreen for my face but kept this on the shelf just in case. Now I find that while it isn't my daily sunscreen, it is what both my husband and I use when we are going out for a long bike ride or a walk or some purposeful all day event when I know I will be in the sun. I trust this more for complete protection than my daily sunblock - I never feel it come off when I sweat, it applies very dry, never makes me feel oily or like I have an extra layer on my face. So while I am sad I can't use it daily any more, it remains my go-to on big sun days.
