Rated 5 out of 5 by from My favourite sunscreen (works for medium brown skin/ dry skin too) This is an excellent sunscreen. I use the SPF50+ version. It blends in perfectly with my medium brown skin colour (about NC42 for reference) and works extremely well with my makeup. Although it says its for oily skin, I find that it works very well with my dry skin type and leaves a nice finish making my skin baby soft! It is a great price as well- I got it from Priceline for about $20 and it comes with a good amount of product. Highly recommended and is my favourite sunscreen! ( I copied and pasted my review from makeupalley)

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Loving The Oil-Free Non-Ghosting Formula I love that when I put this on my shoulders, neck, chest and back that I can rest assured my hair won't end up oily and greasy. Being oil-free is a biggy for me as I have naturally oily hair anyhow and don't need any extra grease! I will definitely be buying this again! I recently took it with me on a snorkelling trip in The Great Barrier Reef and found it fully protected me the whole time I was wearing it - I never got burnt. I really love the way I can use this both on my face and body too. It comes out of the tube in a light cream and spreads really easily which is great because I need to work quickly with sunscreens on my 11 year old who still has a tendency to wiggle away from me while I try to get sunscreen on her! This product makes fast work of the chore and it doesn't leave any white hue on the skin even though at first it comes out in a whitish colour - it quickly sinks right into the skin. I find it true that it's Fragrance Free - I can smell nothing and I have quite a sensitive nose. This brilliant product is just the type of product I was looking for to take away with me on my holiday - full SPF50 broad spectrum protection and waterproof for the four hours.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from A really good sunscreen for a great price. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I find it quite difficult to get a great sunscreen for my oily skin that isn't more than $40 - Which I would spend but with the quantity of sunscreen you need to properly protect the skin, I just try and avoid spending that much. I really like the cetaphil sun ultra-light lotion because it is really light on the skin but still really easy to apply. Some light sunscreens are like you're applying water on your face, but this one has some substance to it's texture all while still being lightweight As for sun protection - I cannot fault it. I did not do a test where I tried to get burnt while wearing it by any means, but I have not had any issues with sun since using it. This sunscreen works wonders even on my oily skin. I don't see any difference in my oiliness throughout the day when I'm wearing it - which is a feat considering it's a sunscreen! - and it does not alter my foundation application. I really like this sunscreen and will continue to use it.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Great lightweight sunscreen [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I raised my hand when given the opportunity to trial this sunscreen because I have a newborn (well, probably not-so-newborn now) baby and wanted to find a sunscreen formulated for sensitive skin. To clarify, the sunscreen was not for my baby, but for myself. I was just worried that any sunscreen used on my face and body would rub on her delicate skin. Disclaimer: Being a new first time mum, I do not have time (or anywhere to go) to put on makeup, so I have not trialled this sunscreen under makeup. My first impressions of this sunscreen was that it felt really lightweight on my skin. It has a rather neutral scent as well. I go on walks quite regularly, and there has been times where I’ve forgotten to put sunscreen on my body but have done so on my face (face sunscreen application is part of my morning skincare routine). On the occasions where the sun was out in full force and my body was not protected, my shoulders and arms would be red and slightly burnt (but for some reason, my legs would be fine?). And my face would look like I’ve been indoors all day. This sunscreen definitely works! I do not have sensitive skin but have not noticed any irritation. I also have not noticed any irritation on my baby’s skin (and I would say her skin is probably more on the sensitive side).

Rated 4 out of 5 by from A little less light than it lets on [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] [I received this as a part of the trial team] At first glance this sunscreen ticks all the boxes - light lotion, broad spectrum, water resistant, oil free, fragrance free and non-greasy. I would say that this is not an ultra-light lotion and applies quite greasy to the skin, like a standard sunscreen. It does however feel quite light once it is applied to the skin and makeup can be easily applied over the top. I don't think I would leave the sunscreen on the skin just as is, because of the sheen it provides. I also noticed an alcohol scent on application, however this dissipates quite quickly. The packaging is standard for Cetaphil and the cap does not easily open - great for the beach bag. The positives however, it is water and sweat resistant and has been one of very few sunscreens that has not broken out my skin after multiple uses/consecutive days. Which is a huge plus for me! A little also spreads quite far and it does sink quite easily into the skin without any white cast present (please note I am a light medium skin tone). Overall I think there are better face sunscreens out there with a more matte finish, however I like this one for days I know I will be exposed to intense sun and water as I know this will provide adequate protection.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Lightweight for SPF50+ and fragrance free [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a great product to use on beach days and when I know I am going to be sweaty or doing something active. It's pretty lightweight for an SPF50+ sunscreen, offers 4 hours water resistance, is fragrance free and doesn't leave my skin feeling too greasy. I have oily skin, and found that although this wasn't matte and left me looking a tad shiny, it could be fixed by applying some powder. It absorbed quite easily into my skin, and did not ball up on top of moisturiser. As someone who usually sticks with zinc oxide based sunscreens as it has a lower chance of causing stinging or irritation, this sunscreen was fantastic for my sweaty trail runs, where I am constantly wiping and rubbing my face. I also reapplied it for an hour session at an aqua park, where I couldn't wear a hat. I didn't get sunburnt which is a major plus, and was immersing my head underwater a lot, so I trust its water resistance claim. The only complaint I have is the packaging makes it slightly messy, as product can easily get clogged up on the lid. But it's a 100ml tube which will apply really nicely on the face and body.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Great protection, but quite greasy/thick [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm super picky when it comes to sunscreens and this one seemed like it would tick all the boxes - weightless, non-sticky, high protection, new non-carcinogenic sunscreen ingredients, affordable. This one ALMOST ticked all the boxes... except that it is not light at all! I notice a slight white cast and sheen immediately after applying which becomes less noticeable after 20-30 minutes however it still feels like a heavy layer of something on my skin throughout the day. If I touch my face, I notice the grease transfers on my fingers - big no no! My hair also sticks to my face when wearing this sunscreen - another big no no! I have normal to dry skin, however this product is marketed for oily skin. That being said, I like the combination of both physical and chemical blockers in this sunscreen as well as the use of newer ingredients which provide high sun protection. There is a very faint smell of ethanol in this product but it disappears quickly and is not irritating. This sunscreen is also much less greasier than the kids version in the pump bottle. The packaging is slim, sturdy, and super easy to throw into a handbag or to bring travelling. I'll reserve this sunscreen for beach and outdoor use, but would really prefer something lighter and more weightless for everyday use.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Great sun protection for the body [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Cetaphil Sun Ultra-light lotion has very high sun protection of SPF50+ and is formulated for oily skin for application on both the body and face. The sunscreen comes in a big tube with a flip top cap and it’s a good 100mL size tube that will last a good while. The sunscreen has no distinct scent as the formula is fragrance and oil free, and my sensitive skin did not react to the formula as no skin redness was visible. The opaque white lotion is lightweight and not too runny, so I was able to easily apply a small amount of sunscreen onto my face. My skin type is oily and unfortunately, this sunscreen left my face looking very shiny and greasy without the white cast. I very much prefer applying this sunscreen on my body as this product doesn’t sit well before makeup application, due to the sunscreen not absorbing very well and leaving a greasy look. Overall, I recommend using this sunscreen on the body due to the ease of application, the very high sun protection, broad spectrum and sun filters. If you have very oily skin, I would not recommend using this sunscreen on the face.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Great for sensitive skin Medium thick, goes on a bit white but settles after a minute. Doesn’t react with my sensitive skin! However it does leave me very oily. I rub my forehead and have grease marks on my clothes kind of thing. I can’t use Laroche pose sensitive, the cancer council sensitive, Bondi sands, or Nivea sensitive if that gives any comparison. One to try if you’ve reacted to others.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Great product I have dry, sensitive skin that refuses to absorb 9/10 products I try. This Cetaphil one is great. I can still feel it a tiny bit, but it's not that greasy, heavy feeling. Perfect for walks whilst working from home and also neck and hands on long drives post-lockdown. Besides this, the formula is amazing. It's smooth and easy to apply, feeling more like a moisturiser. No white cast or shine. Also really affordable for a high quality product. Will definitely be trying more Cetaphil products!

Rated 4 out of 5 by from greasy on the face I have oily skin and I've been hunting for a suitable sunscreen for the face. This product is too greasy and heavy, I needed to use setting powder on top. It can work well under make-up etc but definitely not suitable to be used on its own. The coverage is good and I think it does its job well as a sunscreen. Although the alcohol content is quite high and I could smell it during application.
Date published: 2020-02-27
Rated 4 out of 5 by from Good for the body, not as good as the kids one. This isn't bad, but the 50+ Kid's one is better. This is more expensive per ml, smells more like alcohol and doesn't have a pump. Great filters though.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Greasy feel Good coverage but being 50+ it's more greasy then 30+ not good for face and I didn't really like it any where else but it does protect from the sun and if you don't care about greasy feel then it's a great product.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Works well with under my make up, light weight texture I was given a 10 ml sample tube of this during a recent Priceline promotion and I was really keen to give this a go. I am 47 with normal to dry skin and I was originally concerned that this would be not be hydrating enough as it's designed more for oily combination skin, but I was proven wrong. I noticed that some of the reviewers with oily skin found this too greasy or left their skin very shiny looking, but not me! This light weight fragrance -free lotion sat well on top of my day cream and absorbed easily. I found that I could apply primer immediately after and then apply my foundation without it balling up. It did leave my skin with a slight sheen but not oily or greasy looking, I think this is because my skin is on the dry side. I'm used to using the light weight Asian sunscreens and this one by Cetaphil is the closest that I have found. It's a definite repurchase for me.
Date published: 2016-04-05
Rated 4 out of 5 by from Great multitasking product I was lucky enough to receive tiny samples of these. I love the fact that it has spf of 50+! I used them when I went travelling to Asia and boy was it useful! The bottle is upside down so the lid is where you can make it sit. It is a white tube and the lid is orange. The moisturiser itself if thick which I think is due to the sunscreen ingredient but it easily absorbs into my skin. It is also a great base if I were to use foundation on top and doesn't make me look too cakey. I love that you can use this all over your body but I mainly used it for my face and neck. It was just a great product to have in my bag when I was travelling!

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Cetaphil ultra light lotion [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Thanks as always to the ladies at beautyheaven for including me in the trial team. I should preface this with a couple of things - my skin is very, very oily. Also, I fork out $$ to get Japanese sunscreen imported because I got hooked on the stuff... its fantastic. Hard to compare other products, honestly. But the cetaphil product I'd say is about middle of the road. Definitely light weight, and I could use it on my face without reaction -a huge plus for me since I have sensitive skin. But although I had no bad reaction, I didn't find any other benefit. My skin was oily very quickly and I just couldn't wear makeup with it. Great on the body though!! Great texture and not greasy. I think this is what I'll primarily use it for. So in short , some pluses some negatives. Not bad overall.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from A bit thick for my liking [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Thanks to the lovely people at beauty heaven and cetaphil for giving me the opportunity to try this sunscreen. I have combo oily skin and while not a fan of sunscreen make an effort to apply it each morning. This sunscreen is quite a thick cream that is unscented. It spread nicely for such a thick cream but didn’t absorb particularly well. I felt as if I had an oily coating on my skin. The product lasted well through sweating and swimming and did not sting my eyes. I just couldn’t get over the film left on my skin. For this reason I doubt I would repurchase this sunscreen in the future.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from would prefer a matte finish [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really like the packaging of this product; the bright orange really stands out and it is easily found in my vanity. I was a little disappointed that the tube seemed to be only two thirds full so I think a smaller bottle, or a larger volume would be better. The cream is very light and glides over the skin easily however it is a little on the sticky side which I don't love. It does not have a scent. Having oily skin I do prefer something that has a matte finish and this left my skin feeling and looking shiny. This is absolutely perfect for my body however I'm not 100% keen on it for my face. Very impressed with the 50+ and confident to use for water use for the family.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Thick facial sunscreen [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was very excited to try this sunscreen as summer is here. I am always excited to try new sunscreens. This one is called the 'Ultra-light' lotion and is targeted towards oily skin for face and body. I found that this name was not appropriate. It has a thick texture and when using the recommended amount, it took a while for me to rub it all into my skin. I was also very shiny and greasy. The advantage of this is that I know that my skin is being protected. I have tried other brands of sunscreen that works a lot better than this one as they are truly light and not greasy. It took some time for this sunscreen to sink in before I felt comfortable applying makeup on top. Therefore, it would not be a daily sunscreen for me when I need to do my skincare quickly and wear makeup on top. However I can see that this sunscreen could be good for a day at the beach as I know I am being protected and I don't wear makeup on top. The sunscreen comes in a convenient squeeze tube in a matte finish.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Light texture, but sits on skin heavily [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Thank you to BH for allowing me to participate in this product trial - when I saw it was an SPF product specifically designed for oily skin AND it was water resistant, I was very excited! The tube is a generous 100ml, and I always appreciate a bottle that sits on it's lid - so much easier to get every last drop of product. The lid shuts tightly which is great for beach bags etc. The fluid is your typical white sunscreen, it has a light, runny texture and flows easily. It was easy enough to apply to the face but does take a bit of work to spread around. I found it left quite a strong ghosting, and then the effort to spread around and rub out the ghosting ended up making my face quite pink - I would recommend applying this 10-15mins before makeup if possible. Unfortunately I found this left my skin looking quite shiny and feeling greasy - not what I was hoping for. My powder foundation did apply quite well over the top, and I didn't become more shiny than usual throughout the day, so that was good. I trialed this product with makeup for a day in the office, and without makeup for a hot sunny day at the zoo. I found it a bit heavy for a day indoors, but it was great for the outdoors and my face was well protected from the sun.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Expected better for the price... I love Cetaphil skincare products, along with Ego and Aveeno and their products don't irritate my skin. I thought I'd try this sunscreen out since I love their skincare. The product itself comes in a bottle with a twisty-snap on lid, and a flat hole opening that you're meant to squeeze the product out. The lid was really weird and hard to open and close with sunscreen in your hands, and the bottle isn't very squeezy, making it hard to dispense and close up. It would be easier if the lid was a flip top and the bottle had more give when dispensing product. The product goes on pretty smoothly, makes me a tad shiny but it goes away in 15 minutes (I have dry skin). It didn't emphasise any of my dry patches (in the summer, likely would in winter though) but when i would touch my neck or face to wipe off any sweat, my sunscreen would pill off in many tiny little balls, which were visible and really annoying. The more I tried to get them off, the more of them rolled up and appeared. It became a big nuisance for me, especially for the price I paid. If you don't have these problems, it's a great sunscreen if not for that! I'd say give it a try, and hope you don't get the pilling like I did! Brand Response: Hi amessofjess, We are very sorry to hear about your experience with your Suntivity Ultra-Light Lotion Body & Face 50+ product. We would love the opportunity to talk to you directly about this so we welcome you to contact us at 1800 800 765 at your convenience. Thanks.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Too oily for me This says oil free, but it must have silicones in it instead (the ones that feel oily), it made me really shiny. PROS: - My often sensitive skin didn't react to this - Spreads well CONS -Made me really shiny, though it didn't feel super oily, strange... - This needs to be used on *bare* skin, the chemical absorbers only work if they can sink into your skin, that's why you have to wait 20 minutes after applying a chemical sunscreen to go outside to have proper protection. This is a big negative for me as I like to use a Vitamin C + E serum during the day under my sunscreen because it improves performance, though presumably only with physical sunscreen
