Ann12345 - 10 days ago, Verified purchaser
I like it. But not sure it’s really doing anything more than an average moisturizer. No smell. Not greasy. Works well under makeup. I just don’t see any special about it. Been using it daily for a month. Undecided if I’d buy again.
Love

Feels very nice on my skin after a shower, love applying it. I usually have very dry skin during the winter because of the cold weather but using this I’ve noticed a little difference so far, my face is definitely more moisturized now than before!
My holy grail moisturizer

I recently tried Neutrogena Hydro Boost Gel Cream with Hyaluronic Acid for extra dry skin and I must say that I am really impressed with its performance. As someone with very dry skin, I have struggled to find a moisturizer that can keep my skin hydrated and nourished all day long, but this product does exactly that. The gel cream formula is incredibly lightweight and absorbs quickly into the skin, leaving no greasy residue behind. It feels refreshing and soothing on the skin and provides an instant boost of hydration that lasts for hours. The hyaluronic acid in the formula works wonders in retaining moisture in the skin, making it look and feel plump and healthy. I also appreciate that this product is fragrance-free, which is a bonus for those with sensitive skin. The packaging is convenient and travel-friendly, making it easy to use on-the-go. Overall, I would highly recommend Neutrogena Hydro Boost Gel Cream with Hyaluronic Acid for extra dry skin to anyone looking for a lightweight, non-greasy moisturizer that delivers intense hydration to the skin. It has become a staple in my skincare routine and I can see myself repurchasing it in the future.

Putting on it on after washing my face felt really hydrating and felt like on the skin. Great for make up prep as well or just for bare skin too. And leaves the skin moisturized without feeling oily

I purchased this product at the recommendation of my dermatologist. I went to my appointment willing to drop some money on skin care. This is the product she recommended and I have never been happier with a moisturizer. You cannot beat the price and the results!

This is a great cream for the winter season. It is very hydrating but doesn't feel heavy on the skin. I dont know if I would use this year around but when my skin needs some extra attention, I put this into my routine.
So hydrating

Gives great moisture for my dry skin but not too heavy either. This is great in hot summer weather as its lightweight and heavy. It absorbs quickly.
