Neutrogena's Fresh Cooling SunBlock Gel

I bought it a couple of days ago and am hating it. Whenever I use this, it starts to peel off as I’m shedding skin eww and it smells and feels like alcohol. Has anyone had the same experience with this sunblock gel? Any other good oil-free sunblock cream/lotion/gel that you know of? Also, share your experience with it please

Re: Neutrogena's Fresh Cooling SunBlock Gel

Is there a special reason that you're using a sunblock gel as opposed to a regular sunblock lotion/ cream? I'm not regular with sunblocks but I've this one from aveeno. Whenver I wear it, I mix it with a moisturizer since my skin tends to get dry if i dont hydrate it every few hours! I think it's an spf 45 or something. Works for me :)

awww it sounded so nice i was just starting to get impressed till i read the review

^^ Well don’t. It’s a complete waste of money. Heck, you can’t even use this silly invention on arms/legs because it stills balls up and rolls off :smack:

My skin tends to get very oily during summer. so much so that I have to use oil-free moisturizer sparingly because even that makes my skin shiny and oily after a couple of hours. I had been using Neutrogena's ultra-sheer dry-touch sunscreen for the past two summer but this year I thought I'd give the gel one a try. Such a let-down. I'm so going back to the dry-touch one.

but i liked it when i bought it last year. actually i bought thei dry touch sunblock cream and my face broke out. after that i bought that gel and it worked nice for me.
one tip watch your face before applying it and then apply make on top of this sun block. it will work fine. i am assuming you are using it after applying make up or not washing your face before applying it.

btw, i can't find it anywhere this year. where did you bought urs fromm?

^^ bought it from Walmart. couldn’t find it anywhere else. I’m assuming it’s discontinued for good. I do wash my face before applying it and I use no makeup at all so these two are definitely not the reason why is it not working for me :snooty:

My HG sunscreen product is:

L'Oreal's Ombrelle
- Patented Photostable UVA-UVB protection
- Fragnrance and colorant Free
- Moisturizing
- Non-Greasy
- Water-Resistant
- Non-comedogenic

I honestly can't stop raving about this product. I have to be really picky with what I use on my face, because I have acne prone skin. This is the best sunscreen I have used. It doesn't leave my skin too greacy and no breakouts even even with SPF 45.

Oh it so sounds like an ad:K337:
