    It's Good

    I received a free sample of this product in exchange for a review. I was excited to try this product as I am always looking for effective chemical exfoliants. I used this after cleansing my face, but about 10 minutes before a moisturizer. It feels nice, not greasy or weird. I'm not 100% on its effectiveness, but it didn't break me out.

    Feeling Hydrated

    I really do enjoy the Neutrogena Hydro Gel Cream but I think it's still a bit too dry outside for me to just rely on this cream for my facial skincare. Definitely need a tiny boost from some face oils otherwise this was great for on the go.

    Nice for a daily moisturizer

    This made my skin feel so silky smooth. I only had a sample size so I used it for a few days in the morning as a daily moisturizer. It absorbs very fast and doesn't make your face look shiny. I wore it under my makeup with no issues and I felt like it helped out my dry cheeks from this harsh winter we had. The price does seem a bit high compared to other drugstore brands so I'm undecided if I'll buy the full size of this.

    Great Hydration

    The gel is lightweight and moisturizes your skin really well. It is lightweight and spreads nicely over the skin. Absorbs quickly and leaves no sticky residue. Your skin instantly feels smoother, softer and hydrated. I do not mind the smell. It smells quite tropical. Although there is a scent, it is not long-lasting. It disappears quite quickly. The gel provides a nice cool sensation when you first apply too. So it's nice to wear on those hot days where you do not feel like lathering a thick cream on. i have worn this alone and under makeup. It layers on well with makeup, and does not affect my application. I was given this product to try as part of the Product Review Club (#gotitfree).

    Liked this product

    The sample size was enough for three use. I like the cream. It is not oily and so absorbs well in the skin. Keeps my skin soft and hydrated. I wish the sample size was a little bigger to use it a couple more time to be sure if it suits me! I Received the sample free from Chickadvisor

    Amazing product but pricy!

    This cream definitely does what the name states! I have very dry skin in the winter time, particularly on my face. This product was gentile enough to use around my eyes but worked so well to relieve the dry skin. It is very light and does not leave a residue. The only negative thing is the price. For a drugstore brand, it is slightly expensive.

    NEW Favourite! So Light - So Smooth!

    Note: I received this product free to review from the Chick Advisor Product Review Club.

    I have seen commercials for this cream on TV and had always wanted to try, but always remain loyal to Aveeno. I think this might just make me a convert. I have never been overly loyal to Neutrogena, and often find their acne products a little too drying, so I never thought to try their other lines. I am so happy I got this little sample to try, because it is a game-changer. It is light and smooth and applies like a gel but feels very moisturizing. I have combination skin and find my cheeks are dry while my T Zone is very oily - This actually seemed to create a nice balance and did not irritate my skin.

    I love that it is light and feels cooling when applied. It sinks into skin almost immediately and does not leave a residue, but still feels like your skin has gotten some moisture. I would not say it is a heavy-duty cream, but I love it for everyday wear. Foundation applies nicely over it, and I even tried using it, then using a primer, then a foundation and still did not feel like my face had a lot of product on it. I will definitely be making the switch to this cream. I have not found that my skin has gotten any new breakouts since using it, nor have I found my pores to seem more oily than usual. I actually think it balances my skin perfectly. I only wish I had tried it sooner.

    Gives a boost to dry skin

    I did receive this product for free to test and give my review. I found the gel to be refreshing and hydrating on my face. It goes on nicely and does not leave a residue or stick feeling. I thought it made a bit of a difference especially after the recent snow storms and harsh weather. I would likely buy again as it worked well.

    I've noticed a huge change

    Note: I received this product for free to test.

    The most problematic dry spots on my face are around my nose and middle of eyebrows, and I get nervous, even while using moisturizers, how much dryness will show through if I apply makeup.

    This cream seems to have fixed that. It leaves my skin feeling hydrated and soft, and I can go throughout the day and take a glance at myself in the mirror, and not find a single spot of dryness.

    I would definitely recommend this product to anyone with dry skin.

    Really Moisturizes

    I received this Neutrogena Hydro Boost Gel Cream for free from Chick Advisor in exchange for my honest review. This gel works well with my Combination Skin, it absorbs quickly and doesn't leave my skin oily. I used this in the morning before applying my make-up and it helped leave my skin looking incredibly hydrated. I would recommend this gel to anyone with combination skin like mine.

    Thank you Neutrogena and Chick Advisor for the chance to try out this product #gotitfree
