Review 1 for Protective Face Lotion SPF 15
Disappointing
-04.06.12
II love my Bobbi Brown base and don't break out from it. This is unusual for me, as I have sensitive oily and atopic skin at age 63. So I was eager to try this Protective Face Lotion as all sunblocks seem to break me out. But it is too emollient for me skin and break out I did. Very badly. Might be good for someone with dry skin. I may use it in my car as a combo hand/sun cream, which is what I do with sunblocks that don't work on my face. Or I may just use it on my chest and neck.

Review 2 for Protective Face Lotion SPF 15
not for sensitive skin
-03.15.12
Quick Take: intensive, lightweight, absorbs quickly, irritating
I tried this hoping it was a good sunscreen for my face but by mid day it was burning as most sunscreens do for me. I love their non sunscreen products and recommend those but the lotion was not protective for me.

Review 5 for Protective Face Lotion SPF 15
great product, missed the new container
-12.26.11
Quick Take: lightweight, absorbs quickly
This is my third bottle. LOVE it!
It doesn't feel greasy or plastic-y like some facial lotions with SPF. Most of BobbiBrown's skin care products are outstanding.

One less star for the new container, I think glass bottle feels better looks better....a lot better than plastic one they changed to.

Review 6 for Protective Face Lotion SPF 15
A Great Price for an Amazing Moisturizer-HG!!
-09.24.11
Quick Take: intensive, great natural fresh herbal/natural scent, feels great on skin, very moisturizing all the way, smells divine, non-greasy, amazing consistency, better than products two times the price
I initially was at a Duty Free store to try on the new Bobbi Brown BB cream, because BB creams are very big in Asia. But the beauty consultant there applied this lotion before applying the BB cream. I was so deliciously amazed by the feeling of this lotion that I asked the consultant what she had put on my face. She showed me this lotion, and I ended up buying this instead of the BB cream.
This lotion doesn't instantly absorb into your skin but because it's not a superlight moisturizer you can really feel your skin eating it up. The smell is really really Divine! It's not an artificial disgusting perfumey smell, but it's very natural, heavenly, fresh, and just perfect! Your skin feels very soft afterwards and will thank you.
I have been using this lotion for over a month alternating with other moisturizers I have from Sisley and La Mer. The price is definitely not low but even compared to moisturizers that are over a hundred dollars, this really outperforms them.
I sometimes use a toner and sometimes not with this lotion, I don't think that part matters, but make sure you cleanse your skin well to reap all the benefits. I use about one and a half pump for my entire face and neck.
This is a buy that you won't regret!! My first Bobbi Brown purchase, and it really made me respect this brand. :)

Review 7 for Protective Face Lotion SPF 15
Review 8 for Protective Face Lotion SPF 15
Best Oil-Free Face Lotion I've ever tried
-08.02.11
Quick Take: intensive, lightweight, absorbs quickly
I'm in my 40's and have always struggled to find a lotion that didn't make my oily skin oilier. Then, my sister-in-law told me about this Bobbi Brown lotion. I have been using it for about 3 weeks now and couldn't be happier. My skin hasn't looked this good in years. I live in AZ so I need the SPF and am amazed at how great this lotion makes my skin and me feel great! A co-worker today even commented on how great my skin looked!

Review 9 for Protective Face Lotion SPF 15
Best. Face. Lotion. Ever!
-03.27.11
Quick Take: lightweight, absorbs quickly
I've been using Bobbi's products for over 4 years and I simply can not live without this lotion. I have Normal to Oily skin and this doesn't add any shine to my Tzone. Just soft supple hydrated skin! I wish that this came in the 3.4 ounce size all year round. The regular 1.7 oz size usually lasts me 1.5-2.5 months. So it can really add up price wise. But I've never found anything in drugstores or other big retailers that I love nearly as much, so I deal with it. My makeup goes on smooth and seamless and lasts all day without sliding off by mid day. I totally recommend this to anyone!

Review 10 for Protective Face Lotion SPF 15
awesome!
-03.26.11
Quick Take: lightweight, absorbs quickly, non-greasy
this is the first Bobbi Brown skincare product I've tried and I love it. I wear it alone if I'm going without makeup. Doesn't make me greasy. I wear it under the face base [which I purchased at the same time] if I'm wearing makeup, because I like a primer with my makeup. I'm 41, I have combination skin, I tend to break out with new products. This lotion feels great going on, doesn't make me greasy and doesn't make me break out. The only down side is the price, since I can get less expensive products at the drugstore. But I've been using it every day for 3 weeks, so if it lasts a long time, then it's worth the price.

Review 12 for Protective Face Lotion SPF 15
Perfect Moisturizer!
-12.24.10
Quick Take: intensive, lightweight, absorbs quickly
This is the best moisturizer ever! It's very light weight, never feels heavy, is very silky and glides over your face so nicely, and a little goes a long way. I have oily skin, but my cheek area gets dry during the winter, and this takes care of my dryness, and doesn't add any excess oil to my oily areas. I highly recommend this!

Bobbi Brown Protective Face Lotion
-11.01.10
Quick Take: lightweight, absorbs quickly
This is the best every day lotion that I have ever used. My skin drinks this in and it is light enough to wear under make up. My only complaint is that it comes in one size and I go through it pretty quickly. It has a wonderful, calming scent too!

Review 15 for Protective Face Lotion SPF 15
Great sun protection!
-10.08.10
Quick Take: lightweight, absorbs quickly, oil-free
I’ve ordered Bobbi Brown skincare products for some time and I’m so glad that I can now buy them from Sephora. This is an excellent sunscreen that works great on my oily skin. It is super lightweight and absorbs very quickly so I don’t have to wait to apply my makeup overtop of it. And with it being oil-free it doesn’t clog my pores or make my skin look oilier. I use this after applying Bobbi Brown’s “Vitamin Enriched Face Base” and it layers great without any flaking or balling up. My makeup goes overtop of this lotion very smoothly and I love knowing that I’m protected from the sun with the SPF 15, plus the SPF in my foundation, too. My dermatologist told me that the most important thing a woman can do to fight the signs of aging is to wear a sunscreen. I don’t leave my house without a sunscreen on my face so even on days when I don’t feel like wearing makeup, I apply this lotion so I know I’m protected. When worn by itself (without makeup), it absorbs so completely that nobody can tell that I’ve got the lotion on. I would highly recommend that everyone use a sunscreen because I just had a tiny spot removed from my face and my mother just had to have surgery recently on the skin cancer on her nose. I think this is a fantastic lotion.
