Best Sunscreen FOUND

I have been looking for good sunscreen for years. One or two. Now I can kick back and drink an OE under my sun lamp because I've found the best.

The Helioplex technology used in this product is supposedly what the Europeans have been using for years and any suncreenie (like foodie, humor me) knows that the Europeans have superior sunscreen. That coupled with the fact that it does not feel greasy when applied on the face is great. And it's spf 55 which is good for people (me) who have recently discovered sunspots and realize tanning is not as cool as it was in the 7th grade when people (I) covered the Thriller record album (folded out, remember?) with aluminum foil and sat in the optimal sun attack spot.

Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry-Touch Sunblock SPF 55.

Full disclosure: Neutrogena has been advertising their helioplex technology like crazy so I'm not sure to what degree their advertising has influenced my opinion on this product.



Comments

I will endorse Neutrogena products as a FIRM believer. Informal... uhm... clinical trials with the 44th and 30th Medical Brigades (U.S. Army - AMEDD) reveal that Neutrogena is preferred by... hmmm (a number... the pressure of a number!)... three out of four service members?!? Hey! It works for Trident (or is is Dentyne or the dentists?)!

And yet, the Active Breathable (SPF 30) is THE preferred product for those "trying" environments. You DO need to show a tan at tour's end, and after all, SPF 45 CLEARLY won't allow it! Go wild with SPF 30!

However, the kids thought the Banana Boat sunblock stick was "cute" - it looked fun and the packaging has jungle stuff on it! Try and beat that!

Actually the best sunscreen is SolBar, get it at pharmacy. You may be right about the superiority of the European stuff, but has it passed the FDA? Anyway if not, then I will stick to SolBar for my wifey.
