Helioplex is groundbreaking technology that offers balanced, broad-spectrum protection against both sunburn causing UVB rays and UVA rays that accelerate the signs of aging. Its strong UVA defense helps stop skin aging rays from penetrating through surface layers for exceptional deep cellular protection.

Best daily moisturizerI have been using this moisturizer every day for two or three years now. I have very sensitive skin and I burn easily. I burn so easily that I have gotten a sunburn many times just from sitting near a window. This is perfect because it allows me to protect my face from the sun with a spf that is higher than spf 15, which doesn't help my skin much, and the best part is it doesn't feel (or smell) like sunscreen! It's light and clean feeling, and it doesn't take much. One bottle lasts about 6 months for me, and I use it daily from the neck up. I would highly recommend this product to anyone; best neutrogena product, in my opinion!

Love many Neutrogena products, but not this oneI am a regular user of Neutrogena products. I use both the Neutrogena Rapid Wrinkle Repair Night Moisturizer and Neutrogena Healthy Skin Face Lotion SPF 15, and have for some time now. I really like them both. So when I needed a higher SPF lotion for daytime use, I turned to Neutrogena. This Healthy Defense SPF 50 product made my face extremely itchy. I tried using it on 4 different days, several days apart. to make sure there wasn't some other cause of the reaction. But the reaction only occurred a few hours after applying this product. Something in the formulation doesn't agree with my skin.

Dark Spots WorsenI have been using this moisturizer for a long time now and I never wanted to admitted because neutrogena is usually a great brand to use for my face, but the dark spots I have in my face from acne/sun burn get worse every time I apply it. They get darker and my skin feels oily. I think it I would recommend this for very dry skin or mix skin during the winter, and for people who do not have problems with acne, blackheads, and dark spots. I got more blackheads due to this moisturizer, and it also worsen my acne dark spots.
I started using other brands for moisturizer with sunscreen, and found that they are working better for me, so this product did cause bad results on my face.

CONTAINS PARABENS!I have used Neutrogena products for years and always liked them. However, as I grew older I developed rosacea. Between the ages of 52 and 65 it became so severe I felt housebound and spent an hour applying makeup that still couldn't cover completely. After much research, trial & error, I found I was allergic to PARABENS. This cheap preservative is banned in many European countries! Altho manufacturers of cosmetics, hair products, almost ANYTHING you put on your body, claim only 5% of the population is allergic to parabens, I think OVER TIME, many women will develop this allergy and be told they have rosacea! DONT BUY THIS STUFF! There are many paraben-free products available now. Even Neutrogena is producing some!

Excellent sunscreen and moisturizer!I am 57 years old and never used sunscreen in my younger years. I have some sun damage and a few age spots on my face. My dermatologist told me to start wearing sunscreen everyday and I picked this one. I am so glad I did.I started using this product about two years ago and I love it. I use it everyday under my other moisturizer. My face never gets burned and has a nicer color, and I have noticied no new age spots. I also started using it on my hands and can tell the difference. Oh and it doesn't burn your eyes when you go swimming!

Great Product!!!I have had melanoma skin cancer and also am very concerned about wrinkles. I first bought this product for sun protection, but realized it has made my face and neck smoother, more hydrated and less wrinkled. I have used just about everything, and this tops my chart. Works great under makeup also!

Protects my skinI’ve been using this Healthy Defense moisturizer for at least a year now and it has been great at protecting my skin from normal daily sun exposure. It works well under mineral foundation as well as liquid foundation. By itself, it does not leave a white cast residue on my face. It leaves my skin dewy-looking. I wish I knew what the PA rating of it is though. Is it PA+++??
Smooth liberally on face, neck and other exposed areas every morning after cleansing. Reapply if excess perspiration or product wear occurs. Works well alone, under make-up, or over a serum.
For external use only. Avoid contact with eyes. If contact occurs, flush thoroughly with water. Discontinue use if irritation or rash appear. Keep out of reach of children. If swallowed, get medical help or contact a Poison Control Center immediately. Sun Alert: UV exposure from the sun increases the risk of skin cancer, premature skin aging, and other skin damage. It is important to decrease UV exposure by limiting time in the sun, wearing protective clothing, and using a sunscreen.
