LOVE this lotion! It's lightweight, absorbs quickly and makes a great base for applying face makeup! It has never broken me out and never turns my face greasy or sticky like some other lotions with SPF even in the high summer heat. On my third bottle and it hasn't disappointed!

Mine has pink print on the front that says "All Day Moisturizer with sunscreen BROAD SPECTRUM".


I can't use chemical sunscreens on my face. I bought this lotion for my hands. I am well aware that hands suffer from UV damage every bit as much as other exposed parts of the body but I struggled to find a sunscreen that didn't cost the earth, didn't stink, and didn't feel sticky, tacky, coated, or gross on my hands. I wanted something that felt like a nice hand cream.


This stuff is the goods. I can apply it liberally and it sinks in and moisturizes nicely. The smell is pleasant and light. Only 15spf isn't ideal (at some point I will probably try the spf30 version) but I live with it since I reapply it frequently, like hand cream -- at minimum, before I go outside and after each time I was my hands.


From what I understand the sunscreen ingredients are stable and complete. It's not the cheapest sunscreen in existence, but I feel it's reasonable for using on such a small part of my body, and of course many stores have identical generic versions of it.

4.5 for the original lotion with no SPF
3.0 for the SPF version... nice lotion, just not for me
The original lotion without SPF was one of my favorite facial lotions, affordable, gentle, non-greasy, non-irritating, smelled lovely, etc. Then one day decided to try the SPF15 version (for combination/oily skin) and I was not less impressed for several reasons.
#1 The smell of sunscreen in a lotion is not cute, and the lotion felt a bit powdery on my face likely due to the sunscreen.
#2 This is SPF so I don't want to use it at night. I just don't like to leave unnecessary chemicals on my face. But then during daylight, SPF15 is like nothing, I still need another sunscreen. Geez why did I buy the SPF?
#3 When my skin became sensitive due to acne medication, almost all lotions and creams can irritate my skin, but this lotion irritated the most. I suspect the irritation came from the sunscreen in there, but funny enough my Neutrogena facial sunscreen did not irritate me.

I use this moisturizer day and night. It does very well mixed with my concealer and then set with powder.I also use this as a night time moisturizer...couldn't be happier.

I have been using this product for at least 8 years off and on.

I use the Combination/Oily version throughout the summer. It keeps greasiness under control all day. During the winter I will use the normal or sensitive skin (which ever is available when I need it) for added moisture.

I have been using this in both the combination and sensitive formulas religiously for the last seven years. It's a lightweight moisturizer with added SPF and it's never broken me out. It's also doubled as a makeup remover for me in a pinch.

I love it. It's moisturizing for every day wear. It has SPF15. It would've been better if it was SPF 30. It doesn't break me out. It leaves a slight white cast. I love the packaging - it's sanitary! You don't have to dip your fingers in a jar :D I love it.

I've been using this since I was a young teen. I put it on right after I shower, whether I follow it up with makeup or not. It has protected my face from sun and it has kept my skin from getting too dried out.

I've been using this product since I was a teenager and absolutely love it! I've tried different moisturizers (more expensive ones) but always go back to this one... If it ain't broken don't fix it right!

I've been using this for almost 20 years. It's the only SPF moisturizer that doesn't aggravate my acne. I keep trying higher SPFs that break me out and wind up going back to this. I've given up and just started wearing a baseball cap with the SPF 15. I use this for my am and pm moisturizer.
