I really need to start using more sunscreen
ReplyDeleteNice review! I just started using sunscreen more daily so this might be something for me to check out.
ReplyDeleteI love Neutrogena products especially sunscreen, great review!
ReplyDeleteThe white cast sounds pretty bad; I'm definitely going to avoid this. My husband uses this and doesn't seem to mind it, but I don't think he really cares because all he wants is basic sun protection. Lol.

Hmmm...I am on the fence about this one. I don't like that it leaves a white cast on the skin or that it is not suited for beach or pool.
ReplyDeleteThanks for your honest thoughts.
