    Best moisturizer ever

    It’s the best face moisturizer I’ve ever used! It’s hydrating but not oily at all. The fragrance is so nice but not overwhelming, I’m on my second one and will buy again and again.

    Great skincare at a reasonable pricepoint!

    I truly love this product for all the main reasons that were stated over and over again in previous reviews... it isn’t greasy, it is lightweight, no strong perfumes, and is quickly absorbed. I found myself comparing it to the LaNeige Water Gel Bank moisturizer at twice the price... Get the Neutrogena Hydro Boost at half the price, you will not regret it.

    Fantastic moisture retention, but not really a moisturizer!

    I love this product for all the reasons others love it - it's light, it evaporates quickly, and it doesn't smell (talking about the extra-dry version, not the regular which has fragrance for some reason). Something I must stress to anyone thinking of using this as their sole moisturizer: It is not a moisturizer! It's a humectant - meaning it helps the skin retain water. It's literally hyaluronic acid in gel cream form. This means that in the winter when skin tends to get drier, it's fantastic to put on *under* moisturizer. I use it after washing my face and it acts as a base to retain the moisture in my skin *before* I put either my AM or PM moisturizer. In the summer, it's also great to use because it retains the moisture in your skin that it badly needs while being exposed to UV rays all day. Anyone saying this doesn't moisturize your skin enough is right, because it's not really meant to do that. I have really oily skin and it isn't enough for me on its own, either. I think maybe the marketing language has to change a bit for this one? Took off a star because it's a bit expensive for the amount you get.

    A great light cream great for summers

    It feels light which is nice because I don't like heavy creams but not sure how hydrating it is. Sometimes my nose starts peeling because it's a bit dry and my cheeks get red spots on it due to not enough hydration. It's great during the summer but not so much during the winter

    Fantastic!

    I love how this stuff makes my skin feel! Not greasy, you only need a very little and there is only a slight sweet smell to it. It’s perfect. The price is right as it will last you months since you only need so little. Highly recommended and I have even turned some of my friends on to it

    Love this product, but would I buy it again? Maybe not.

    I bought this cream without knowing what was going to happen because I ran out of my moisturizer. To my surprise, this gel worked perfectly! When you first open the lid, the first thing that welcomes you is the fragrance. It's not an overpowering fragrance that you would not put on your face, but it does give a fresh smell to the face. This is great for applying under makeup because after you rub it on your face, it does not leave a sticky residue like most moisturizers; it gives the face a soft feeling. Although this is a great product, I won't buy it again because during the winter season, it does not improve my dry skin. The price is also pretty expensive for it to not work on my extreme dry skin. This product could work on others but it's not for me.

    The best for dry skin!

    I love this moisturizer. It's really effective for dry skin without breaking the bank. It is awesome for the winter when dry skin needs extra attention. It is my standard for face cream and nothing else from the drug store is better

    So good!

    Honestly this stuff is amazing. If you're thinking about giving it a go, I would highly recommend it. I have combination, acne prone skin and struggle to find hydrating products that don't clog pores/make me break out/feel oily, etc etc. And this does the trick. Lightweight but effective and leaves my skin feeling so soft and balanced. I liked it so much I even bought the vitamin booster serum to try and will be re-purchasing the gel-cream once it runs out.
