Cooling gel cream

I love this cream from a cooling gel perspective. It always feels so refreshing on my skin, and somehow always feels cool. It’s a great gel texture, lightweight and absorbs well. I like that it’s non-comedogenic and doesn’t clog my pores. I haven’t noticed an overnight improvement or anything, but as a regular moisturizer it’s great.

Great for cold harsh weather

This product testing couldn't have come at a better time. Between the cold weather and being pregnant, dry skin was an every day occurrence that was hard to get rid of. Using this cool gel cream after a shower helped clear up the dryness. Not only does it help clear up your dry skin it has a very nice soft scent that isn't too over powering to be using on your face daily. Not enough good things to say about this!

Skin hydration boost

Thank you to @thisisbutterly & @neutrogenacanada for the #gotitfree product. I’m always interested in trying new skincare especially ones with hyaluronic acid. I have been using this gel/cream morning and night for the last few days and Ive got to say this product has definitely given my skin a hydration boost its been needing! I love the texture and the way it absorbs into my skin, it’s a great base for under my sunscreen & moisturizer. I could 100% do without the scent, luckily it doesn’t linger. Really a great product to boost your skins hydration!

Great Moisturiser for dry skin!

I suffer from very dry skin so always looks for moisturisers suited to this. I have been using this product for a couple of years now and love it!

Its light on the skin & quick to absorb.

Keeps my skin hydated!

In love

Neutrogena hydroboost gel,it meets you where you are,gives you best deep nourishing skin,with feather light feel,on the go beauty boost. very rich textured.

A great drugstore buy!

This is a really great and hydrating gel for dry skin. It makes your skin feel soft and supple! I do find that the effects are short-lived though and it requires frequent reapplication. It’s a great buy though!

Decent!

Lovely consistency, I found it to be slightly tacky on my skin which may be loved by some but I prefer a soft sheen to my own. Not much of a scent but great at moisturising.

Great moisturizer for acne prone skin

This product feels so silky and goes on smoothly. It absorbs into skin fast and doesn't make your skin feel greasy at all. I have sensitive acne prone skin. I've tried many different moisturizers that made me break out but this product didn't make me break out. Great moisturizer! I did however, find it too drying for around my eyes. I love this product and recently purchased the version with spf 25 and it works just as great!

This product is good but not excellent for acne prone skin

If you’ve got oily and acne-prone skin, finding a decent moisturiser that doesn’t turn you into an oil tank by afternoon is not an easy task. Out of the many different formulas I’ve tried over the years, only a few products truly suited my problematic skin well. Today’s review is about Neutrogena Hydro Boost Water Gel, which I bought a few months back. Let’s see how it worked for my skin. The Neutrogena Hydro Boost Water Gel comes in a light blue coloured pot with a twist up lid. The packaging looks pretty, but I would prefer a pump bottle so, you don’t have to keep putting your fingers inside the pot to dig out the product. The packaging is quite bulky and not hygienic at all. However, it’s quite sturdy. I have dropped it a few times but, it’s still intact.Firstly, talking about its texture and consistency, the texture is in between that of a gel and water. Its consistency is thin, runny and translucent. It absorbs very quickly into the skin as if your skin gulps in all at once, and no matter how much product you use, it doesn’t turn your skin greasy, which is a big yay. Once absorbed, it leaves your skin incredibly smooth with an almost matte finish. The water gel does hydrate the skin very well. Just a pea-sized amount is all you need for face and neck, which means it will last longer. My husband has been using this every night before bed for almost four weeks, and I’ve also used it a few times in the morning, and I’m nowhere near the halfway mark.There is a fragrance to this product, and it smells clean and fresh to me. I love the scent of this product. It’s mild and soothing but might not suit sensitive noses. It hydrates the skin so well and provides such a perfect makeup finish if you wear it underneath your makeup. I like everything about it, except the fact that it broke out my skin. I started getting breakouts after using this, which is pretty common and happens in case of the majority of products. Only a few skincare products suit my skin or I must say, my skin is very choosy when it comes to skincare and makeup. Apart from that, I loved it as all its claims are absolutely true.

Pros of Neutrogena Hydro Boost Water Gel:
Attractive packaging.
The jar is pretty sturdy as I’ve dropped it a few times, and it never broke.
Non-greasy, lightweight moisturiser; perfect for everyday wear.
Easily absorbs into the skin.
Keeps my skin hydrated.
Suits all skin types.
Dermatologically-tested.
Amazing texture.
Semi-matte finish, acts as a good base for makeup.
Soothing smell.
No SPF.
A little goes a long way.
Cons of Neutrogena Hydro Boost Water Gel:
Contains parabens.
Expensive.
Scent might bother sensitive noses.

Not for me

I got this after reading good reviews but it simply is not for me
I always have had to follow this up with another layer of moisturiser.
I did not even reach half of the tub and had to give it to my housemate
