Common questions

Is Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry-Touch Sunscreen Lotion SPF 70 healthy?

Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry-Touch Sunscreen Lotion SPF 70 scores 14/100 on Tallow — our avoid band. That number comes from what is on the label: the ingredients, how processed it is, and what it is packaged in, plus lab results from its product family, Neutrogena high-SPF lotion (BOS, SPF 50-70). It is not a verdict on your diet — Tallow does not weigh calories, portion size or how often you eat it, so a high score means the ingredients are clean, not that the food is unlimited.

What is in Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry-Touch Sunscreen Lotion SPF 70?

Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry-Touch Sunscreen Lotion SPF 70 lists 33 ingredients, starting with Avobenzone, Homosalate, Octisalate, Octocrylene and Water. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

Does Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry-Touch Sunscreen Lotion SPF 70 contain seed oils?

No. Nothing in Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry-Touch Sunscreen Lotion SPF 70’s ingredient list matches a seed oil — canola, soybean, corn, cottonseed, grapeseed, sunflower, safflower, rice bran or peanut oil, or an unspecified "vegetable oil".

How processed is Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry-Touch Sunscreen Lotion SPF 70?

Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry-Touch Sunscreen Lotion SPF 70 has no NOVA group. Tallow works NOVA out from the ingredient list, and it does not apply to supplements or non-food products; a food whose ingredients are not all classified yet stays unknown instead of being guessed. Either way the processing axis scores it neutrally.

How does Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry-Touch Sunscreen Lotion SPF 70 compare to other sunscreen?

At 14/100 Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry-Touch Sunscreen Lotion SPF 70 scores worse than most sunscreen we have scored. A higher-scoring option in sunscreen is Tallow & Zinc Sunscreen at 97/100.
