I also had a chat with Dr Geetanjali Shetty, Consultant Dermatologist and asked her more about the product. She said that Silica, a mattifying ingredient, which absorbs excess oil to prevent shine..is a primary ingredient in this..and hence it would be perfect for summers and oily combination skin and would not give that greasy sticky feeling as generally sunscreens do..I also asked her about how would she differentiate the Complete UV Moisture and Ultra Sheer Dry Touch Sunblock..and she said the UV Moisture also provides moisturisation along with offering protection without giving a greasy sticky feeling..so that can be the last step of CTM and a separate moisturiser would not be required when one uses this..where as the Sun Block only offers protection..and also that would be more suitable to dry skin…though both have different properties and purpose.
I also talked to Mr Manoj Gadgil, General Marketing Manager, Johnson & Johnson India..about Neutrogena and the best selling products..he said the Neutrogena Fine Fairness Mask is their hot selling one..along with their whole Fine Fairness Range..and more recently the new Neutrogena Deep Clean Blackhead Elimination Warming Treatment is making waves.
Prachi wore a white Zara dress (upper half lacey)..as she found it appropriate for the event and the brand..and tan brown peep toes. She said she does not like to wear make up on a daily basis..and is not even a Kajal/Kohl person..she only uses a lip gloss..and her sunscreen for everyday.

Adding yet another revolutionary sun care product to its existing range of superior broad spectrum sun protection range – Ultrasheer, Neutrogena® the world’s leading brand of Dermatologist Recommended skincare products, launched the Ultrasheer Complete UV Moisture. This sunscreen is powered by Neutrogena’s pathbreaking and patented Helioplex™ technology coupled with the added benefit of a superior moisturization formula.
The very charming Prachi Desai, Brand Ambassador, Neutrogena® was present at the Neutrogena® boutique to launch the aesthetically pleasing and scientifically advanced Ultrasheer Complete UV Moisture while she also shared her skincare tips for the torrid summer months. Offering insights on being sun safe was also Dr Geetanjali Shetty, Consultant Dermatologist, who busted myths surrounding sun damage, various skin woes during the summer and shared expert advice on the do’s and don’ts for superior long lasting sun protection, especially in the summer months.
Commenting on the launch of the Ultrasheer Complete UV Moisture, Mr Manoj Gadgil, General Marketing Manager, Johnson & Johnson India said, “At Neutrogena we believe that‘Healthy Skin is Beautiful skin’. We always pursue the same across all our products as well as awareness and education programs. We highly value the fact that dermatologists recommend our products for improving overall skin health. The scientifically advanced Ultrasheer range with the patented Helioplex™ technology that provides long lasting UVA/UVB protection is no such exception. It offers holistic sun protection to your skin all through the year. Keeping in mind the skin’s specific requirements in the humid summers, The Ultrasheer Complete UV Moisture, not only offers superior sun protection but also great moisturization, all in the same product.”
In conjunction with the existing best selling Ultrasheer range, the Ultrasheer Complete UV Moisture is also stabilized with patented Helioplex™ that works like an invisible shield offering protection from skin darkening and signs of premature ageing, whilst helping to limit and neutralize free radical damage. Additionally, the non greasy moisturizing formula protects against dehydration offering the necessary dual protection in the summers from sun damage and dehydration, resulting in a complete shine free finish, dispensing away the need to apply multiple products to protect your skin.
Talking about the need for long lasting sun safety, Brand Ambassador Prachi Desai said, “The scorching summer months wreck havoc with the skin, thus the need for sun protection is even more pertinent now! Since I’m outdoors shooting most of the time, I always apply Neutrogena’s Ultrasheer Dry Touch sunblock in addition to taking other precautions to protect my skin. With the launch of the Ultrasheer Complete UV Moisture, now I’m not only sun ready but also my skin doesn’t feel dehydrated and coarse, thanks to the moisturization formula ,which is light weight and non greasy, leaving my skin soft, non shiny and sun safe! What’s more I can even wear it under make up without having to worry about greasiness and clogged pores!”
Keeping in mind the sub tropical Indian climate, the entire Ultra sheer range is formulated specifically for the Indian skin. Dermatologists love to recommend Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Suncare range because it can help get higher compliance from their patients, due to the formula’s beautiful aesthetics. This may well be one of the many reasons that Neutrogena is the #1 Dermatologist recommended suncare brand!
Now, there’s no reason not to use sun protection! Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Complete UV Moisture gives you the very best, broad-spectrum sun protection in a non-greasy, lightweight formulation. So light, it can even be worn under makeup. Now that’s protection that is strong on the sun, yet feels light on your skin!
