5 Days, One Product: My Skin Completely Transformed After I Began Using This

      Once you think you've perfected your multi-step skincare routine, a new product emerges, poised to make waves. Personally, I haven't been one for a full 10-step regimen, but as a beauty editor, the curiosity remains. The only way to see if you'll achieve those skincare miracles depicted in commercials is to try them yourself… or have two digital and lifestyle creators to vouch for them. I enlisted digital creator Chelsey Amaro and interior designer and lifestyle creator Jasmine Crockett to test Neutrogena's Ultra Sheer Face Liquid Mineral Sunscreen ($17) and Ultra Sheer Sunscreen Stick ($11) over five days, and their results extend beyond just a visible glow. Neutrogena's reputation for exceptional skincare is well-deserved, but these sun protection products are truly transformative. I could elaborate on the advantages of this invisible SPF pair, yet the evidence lies in their feedback below.

      Jasmine's skincare philosophy: "As a tech entrepreneur and interior designer, my schedule is hectic, but I always make time for a simple skincare routine. Suncare is absolutely essential—protecting my skin from harmful UV rays is crucial, no matter the season. I've recently simplified my regimen by adding products that provide both hydration and sun protection, ensuring my skin remains healthy without the need for many steps."

      Jasmine's top skincare criteria: "The key green flags for me are a lightweight, non-greasy formula, high SPF protection, and straightforward application. The Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Face Liquid and Ultra Sheer Face Stick SPF 60 meet all my requirements. The liquid formula absorbs quickly with no white residue, and the stick makes reapplying a breeze, especially while I juggle work and motherhood."

      Jasmine's skincare recommendation: "Sunscreen is essential—it prevents premature aging, sun damage, and potential long-term skin health problems. I used to apply it only in summer or on vacation, but I've learned the importance of daily use. Neutrogena has perfected lightweight, high-quality sun protection suitable for everyday life. Their formulas are effective, blend seamlessly with my skincare and makeup, and don't leave a greasy feel or white cast."

      Jasmine's five-day feedback: "After using these products every day, I found my skin felt more hydrated and looked more balanced. The Ultra Sheer Face Liquid provided a smooth, natural finish without heaviness, and I appreciated that my skin was protected without irritation or breakouts. It's lightweight and ideal under makeup. Additionally, knowing I'm safeguarding against sun damage enhances my long-term skincare routine. I love how effortlessly [Neutrogena] integrates sun protection into my life. The Ultra Sheer Face Stick SPF 60 is a game changer for quick, hands-free reapplication—no mess, no white cast—just reliable protection that fits into my busy schedule."

      Chelsey's skincare philosophy: "I typically keep my skincare routine very simple: I believe in the 'less is more' approach! Sunscreen is one of my favorite daily essentials because it protects against sun damage and sunburn, as well as premature aging and lowers skin cancer risk. Recently, I've begun mixing my sunscreen into both makeup and no-makeup looks as a highlighter, and I've received countless compliments!"

      Chelsey's top skincare criteria: "Some green flags I look for are suitable ingredients for sensitive skin and dermatologist endorsements. Neutrogena's Ultra Sheer Sunscreen products meet these standards, making them an easy choice for me."

      Chelsey's skincare recommendation: "I've always been a sunscreen enthusiast because I learned early on that it's the most vital part of skincare. Many believe sunscreen is only necessary outdoors, but even when indoors, we are not shielded from UV rays! Neutrogena has consistently been my go-to brand for suncare products due to the essential benefits they provide, which align with my beliefs!"

      Chelsey's five-day feedback: "After using this product for five consecutive days, I noticed my skin remained free of rashes. Since giving birth, my skin has been sensitive and prone to irritation. Even gentle touches would cause itchiness, so not having any issues with this sunscreen was a significant relief. I admire many aspects of these products, especially the fresh scent and their lightweight feel. I also appreciate that they are hypoallergenic and non-greasy, as my skin tends to react negatively to many products."
