Description

Based on EWG's modeling, the UV protection is significantly lower than the SPF value would indicate. This product should also be hydrating enough to use without an additional moisturizer during the day. Neutrogena Sheer Zinc Face Sunscreen SPF 50 is slightly more expensive than its regular counterpart, though the regular version states that it is suitable for “face and body.

If you are into chemistry (if not, we understand, just skip this paragraph), the reason is that electrolytes (you know, the Na+ and Cl- ions) screen the electrostatic repulsion between the head groups of ionic surfactants and thus support the formation of long shaped micelles (instead of spherical ones) that entangle like spaghetti, and viola, a gel is formed. Please talk to your health professional (or at least your spouse) before doing anything you might think is questionable. So if you have a much detested tube lying around, so try these steps to see if it makes a difference.While I can’t say with complete confidence these four shades work on everyone, the two I tried did seem to be versatile (I could’ve gotten away with the light had I wanted to) so I do think the range is fairly inclusive. Since zinc is pretty drying, this MAY work better us on oily / combo skinned girls better than you dry skinned ladies. But, to be totally honest, I end up testing way fewer products than one might expect, largely because my skin is very sensitive. I really liked that the travel sized bottle of the NEUTROGENA® SHEER ZINC® Face and Mineral Sunscreen that I brought actually packs a punch despite the size!

But I will say that Neutrogena Sheer Zinc Face Sunscreen SPF 50 is a pretty great step in the right direction. You’ll find it mostly in products containing SPF, as, according to several manufacturers, it can increase the water resistance and spreadability of UV filters. The reason for this is that salt acts as a fantastic thickener in cleansing formulas created with ionic cleansing agents (aka surfactants) such as Sodium Laureth Sulfate. Although this product is fragrance-free, its natural odor is virtually identical to the one I remember from Aveeno Positively Mineral Sunscreen SPF 50. A physical/inorganic sunscreen with the broadest spectrum (UVB and UVA II, less good at UVA I) protection available today.Kudos to Neutrogena for a trying to create a safe sunscreen using only zinc oxide, but they have some work to do.

And that by incorporating sunscreen into your daily makeup and/or skincare routine, it’s easier to maintain healthier and more youthful looking skin? We wrote more about nanoparticles and the concerns around them here, but the gist is that if nanoparticles were absorbed into the skin that would be a reason for legitimate health concerns. Although our warehouse is fully air-conditioned, these more fragile items are put in cold storage (freezer or refrigeration unit) for maximum freshness. Make sure you’ve properly moisturized your skin before applying this sunscreen if you don’t want it to accentuate your face dandruff (if you have the dubious honor of being a member of this exclusive club).I don’t know if I was biased by the word “face” in the product name, but I did feel like Neutrogena’s face sunscreen was easier to rub into my skin, slightly less chalky, and left less of a white cast compared to the Aveeno product.
