Consumer Reports rated Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry-Touch SPF 45 as the best and the best buy as No-Ad Sunblock Lotion Maximum SPF 45. Both are highly rated for UVA and UVB. If you have any types of allergies, watch the No_Ad one...gave me little blisters and bumps...I only use 15 when I use any at all....the ebst protection agaisnt "bad rays" is to go unexposed fr the first 15 minutes...the bkody has its' own defense mechanism that triggers the pigment in the skin to protect but only after 15 minutes...you also need that amount of time to absorb Vitamin d...then after 15 minutes put on the block or screen or whatever...I am most fortunate that I have olive skin so don't burn very easily.... I used that No Ad crap on my face and neck before a job interview. I sat there looking like a toad with blisters and bumps on my face and neck. I didn't get the job. Ocean Potion puts orange sweat marks and ring around the collar on my clothes. Bleach won't take the stains out but soaking overnight in Oxyclean does. I tried Bull Frog, but if you don't put it on fast enough, it dries really fast and you look like you have pieces of dried snot on your face. Now i use that spray on Bull Frog. I luv the stuff. It doubles as aftershave because it has alcohol in it and stings your face. They even have a version with Deet in it. Lol, great testimonials! Think I'll stick with my Water Babies! Lol... Seahag Did you get the one that's purple until it soaks in? I bought some of that for the kids and Mr Sails grabbed it instead of his usaul...hahahahaha.....he always pours gobs on and it took him a while before he stopped looking like Barney...I've been using Australian Gold..it's not greasy and seems to do the trick...about the only casualty I had this year was the rim of my ears when I was wearing a baseball cap instead of a wide brim one day... |
