Looks like Neutrogena discontinued my moisturizer

chips — Sun, 08 Mar 2015 20:04:22 GMT

I have used the Healthy Defense tinted moisturizer by Neutrogena for many years; it has an SPF of 30. I cannot find it in any store, or on line. Amazon has some for over $50 dollars. I am now in the market again. I like to use the tinted one as I am so pale and this made this old lady look fresh faced. Any other ones out there that you have tried?

EltaMD SPF 41 is what I use and like a lot. They have a website, but you can buy it on several skin care sites, and Amazon. I think I pay around $28.00 for 3 oz. It is a titanium dioxide/zinc oxide suncreen only, (physical), and it it oil-free with antioxidants. I believe that this brand is known for being used on post-procedure skin with no irritation. My derm also sells it. There are many other formulations, but this is the one that works for me. Check out the brand if you're in the market for something new.

It's not as inexpensive as the Neutro one but I like SkinCeuticals Sheer (or tinted) Fusion. SPF 50.

Sorry to hear that. I briefly worked for Johnson & Johnson. Do you know anyone who works for J&J? Their company store might still have some. You could find things that you were not able to find in stores at their company store.

I had bought several of the Neutrogena tinted moisturizer before I left.

Check out Clinique as it is under $30. Laura Mercier is wonderful but in the low $40's. Good luck. Contact Neutrogena directly as they my still have your product in stock at a lower price if they discontinued or perhaps replaced with something else.

I also use EltaMD SPF 41, and believe it is the best sunscreen I've ever tried. However, I personally don't use it as a moisturizing product. Although it does have antioxidants to protect against free radicals, it's not really marketed as a "tinted moisturizer", nor does it provide any hydrating benefits. (At least, not on any of the packaging or in the reviews I've read.)

Thanks all. Looks like it is time to bump up my game and try others. Love that allonotc site but it would not place this in my cart, so I am thinking it is not available.

Did you try the Amazon site? There were several other sites, too. I only listed two.

I find it to be quite moisturizing, actually. I use it over the Olay Regenerist serum, and that's all I need.

I'm on hold right now on a call to Neutrogena to ask them why these Healthy Defense part were discontinued and what they suggest as replacements.

UPDATE: NOT discontinued!!

I just spoke with a consumer care specialist at Neutrogena and the Healthy Defense Moisturizers with SPF 30 & 50 are still being manufactured. She and I checked online at retail websites, like drugstore.com, and you can purchase them there. In fact, drugstore.com is running a 20% off deal, an additional 10% if you do auto-reorder. I don't represent them, just noticed this while doing my search.

The rep also suggested if you can't find it at your store, to ask the store manager to make sure to reorder it.
