    My new (eventual) summer sunscreen!

    Although mother nature hadn't gotten the memo until this week that it's spring and supposed to be sunny, I tested out Neutrogena's new SPF and was impressed. It's effectiveness still remains to be seen, but I really like the subtle scent and the way it absorbs quickly and smoothly into my skin. I hope it's SPF 50 strength will protect my pale skin from getting sunburned this summer, but for now I know that it moisturizes very well while leaving a fresh not-too-sunscreeny scent.

    Wow!

    I use alot of sunscreen over the years and this sunscreen has become one of my favourites. I love the scent and it contains hyaluronic acid which helps keep your skin moisturized. It is light and absorbs fast. I will be using this all summer long...

    I received this for free for my review.

    Lightweight and smells amazing !

    This sunscreen is lightweight and perfect to use on the face and under makeup as it doesn't create texture under makeup.
    My favourite thing about this sunscreen is the smell! It smells great and does not have the usual smell associated with sunscreens. Love that I can get the sun protection I need in such a great product that works with my lifestyle!

    I would definitely recommend to family and friends.

    Thank you ChickAdvisor for the chance to try this product #gotitfree

    Renouvellement de la crème solaire!

    Une belle découverte pour ma petite famille et moi: un écran solaire en gel-hydratant, quoi demander de mieux!

    Je dois vous avouer que ce que j'apprécie le plus de cet écran solaire c'est l'application. C'est à dire qu'en quelques secondes (ou frottement) le gel pénètre dans la peau sans la rendre collante tout en laissant un aspect radieux et brillant! La peau est protégé et brille de milles éclat, c'est merveilleux!

    C'est quand même un peu dispendieux pour le format du produit, mais la qualité y est, alors ça vaut le coût! Le parfum est également aussi très agréable! Bref, une charmante découverte!

    Good body sunscreen

    I am extremely picky on sunscreens, whether it is a physical or a chemical one. This chemical sunscreen might come out as a white cream but the white cast fades away as soon as you blend in with your skin. There is definitely fragrance and (uncessary) colorants in this product but nothing overpowering.

    Since it's still cold over my side of the country, I tested it on my hands only as Neutrogena considers it as a body sunscreen. I appreciate the high SPF coverage (50) and the added hydration component (hyaluronic acid), which is always appreciated during spring and summer seasons. I can totally see it as a good unisex body sunscreen but probably not for my sensitive face. I tend to opt for a lower alcohol content in terms of facial sunscreens. I will definitely update my review as the weather gets warmer.

    I received this sunscreen complimentary from the brand and Chickadvisor in exchange of my honest opinion.

    Great Sunscreen For Your Face... Maybe Not Makeup?

    I really liked this sunscreen. I've used it everyday since I've got it, and so far I'm really enjoying it. It feels quite mositurizing actually, and I've used just this suncreen under my makeup on somedays.

    I do find that if I don't use a really good primer, it messes with my foundation.

    But I like that this sunscreen blends really easily into the skin, and doesn't make it feel greasy. It really does feel more like face cream rather than sunscreen.

    I have a small breakout right now, which is unusual for me. I'm not sure if it's the suncreen or me forgetting to take my makeup off one night.

    I might recommend a different sunscreen for your face if you wear really heavy foundation.

    New favourite sunscreen!

    *Disclosure: I received this product complimentary from ChickAdvisor for testing/review purposes.

    The Neutrogena Hydro Boost Water Gel Sunscreen is very lightweight on the skin. The consistency of the sunscreen is very liquidy - almost like lotion. It applies, spreads and absorbs into the skin very well, not greasy and doesn't leave a white cast - which is great! It does have a hydrating feel on my skin but it leaves a tad bit of sunscreen texture - it's not sticky but it definitely feels like a layer of product is on the skin.

    I like how it doesn't have that typical strong sunscreen scent. It smells neutral enough that it won't be irritating to the nose. I would most certainly recommend this product to everyone and to be used everyday, especially during the summer due to its spf 50.

    Loved it !

    I absolutely loved this sunscreen and my skin loved it even more!

    This product is more like a facial cream with sunscreen than the other way around. It has a pleasant and refreshing scent (doesn't smells like sunscreen at all) and a super light and creamy texture.Also, you can feel your skin getting softer and hydrated when you apply it.

    I was using it daily under my make up and, since the weather got better this weekend, I was able to test under the sun. Even after going out for a run and later going to a bbq, I still could feel that my skin protected and not burning.

    In conclusion, I truly recommend this product.

    Small amount hydrated and on you're way!!!

    NEUTROGENA HYDRO BOOST WATER GEL SUNSCREEN SPF 50

    Only a very small amount needed for a lot of coverage when applying. As for the ingredients Its pretty much has the same as youre average sunblock wich is good. It absorbs quickly and leaves you're skin soft. But its not a gell, its more like a cream type. The product, not all that thick and a little watery. I had to re-apply the product a few times. Since my job consiste of being outdoors you tend to get a little warm and sweaty. After a few times i found my skin a little grease like kinda shiny.
    However its easy to use and it does "in a way" protect youre face from the sun.
