Doesn't work – I am a redhead with fair skin, so I am somewhat obsessive about applying and reapplying sunscreen. I recently purchased the Nivea Sport spray SPF50+ to replace a generic pharmacy brand sunscreen that I had run out of. I follow the directions and shake the bottle vigorously, then apply liberally to exposed skin. I habitually reapply susncreens every 2 hours or sometimes every 1 and a half hours, just to be sure. There are 4 problems with this product. 1: It doesn't work. I ended up with a mild sunburn on my arms even after applying and reapplying. I'd used a Hamilton's face sunscreen on my face and neck and my face and neck were fine. 2: It's very runny and when you spray it into your hand or directly on your arms/legs, it ricochets off and you get spots of it on the floor/walls. 3: It smells bad. 4: It causes mild stinging when applied to the skin. I've never had such problems with other sunscreens. I ended up buying another different brand of sunscreen to use on areas other than my face/neck. I'll never use Nivea again and I believe their sunscreens should be independently tested. Judging by other product reviews of the other Nivea spray, it doesn't work either.
