Pros: Works well, doesn't clog pores
Cons: STAINS LIGHT COLORED CLOTHING
The Bottom Line: If you don't care about your clothes, by all means, use this sunblock. Or just make sure you always wear black.

| fuzzbunny's Full Review: Neutrogena Sensitive Skin Sunblock Lotion |
I like the sunblock, it smells nice, it feels nice and it works well. Unfortunately, that's not all it does. It has horribly stained my light-colored clothes.
I probably did not notice it sooner because last season I had a black bathing suit. This year it's a celery green, and the stains are very noticeable.
They look like rust stains, but I know for sure it's not rust, it's from the sunblock. Put it this way, I applied sunblock, then a little later, put on a white cotton sweater. When I went to wash it a few days later, the ENTIRE INSIDE OF THE SWEATER was orange! That left little doubt that it was the sunblock.
I complained to Neutrogena, and they had me call a 1-800 number. The woman said to wash it, try shout, and then take it to the cleaners if that didn't work. They were "kind" enough to offer to send an envelope so I can mail them the cleaning receipts and they would take reimbursement into consideration.
Frankly, for the money I spent on the sunblock, I'd expect something a little better from this company. It certainly wasn't the cheapest bottle on the shelf. It's too bad, I liked the stuff, but it's not worth ruining my clothes. I will not use it again.
