    Great Moisturizer

    The hydro boost gel cream is very similar to the hydro boost sunscreen. It has a great moisturizing feel. It doesn't look or feel greasy and it drys fast. It is great for underneath makeup. I would prefer it to have some spf. I like when my moisturizers have some sun protection. But it defiantly does hydrate the skin all day. I do really like the gel texture of this cream to give a nice even application.

    Great for oily skin

    I received this product free for review from the Product Review Club and was quite pleased with it.

    I have oily skin, so gel creams tend to work better for my skin than heavy cream moisturizers, and this product was no different. The lightly-scented gel absorbs easily and doesn't leave any greasy residue. I use Proactiv daily, which can be really drying, but this moisturizer helped keep my skin hydrated and smooth, and unlike some heavier creams, it didn't cause any breakouts.

    A little goes a long way with this, so the value isn't terrible, but it is one of the more expensive Neutrogena products out there. Compared to higher-end brands though, it's not too bad. I would definitely purchase this again, but would probably wait for it to go on sale.

    Great cream.

    I love the texture of this cream, it is gel like which is great because it feels light and is absorbed quickly. There is absolutely no icky sticky feeling or wait time for it to be absorbed. It makes your skin feel really nourished and moisturized. It is a great cream to use before putting your make up on as it keeps your skin hydrated and makes your skin ready and a great base. It has a light feeling on the skin but that doesn't mean that it is not doing much. I packs quite a punch and makes your skin feel like skin should - loved and healthy!!

    pas suffisant

    J'ai eu la chance d'essayer ce produit gratuitement. J'étais heureuse, car j'ai la peau très sèche l'hiver et je suis toujours à la recherche de la crème miracle. J'ai beaucoup aimé l'odeur, mais malheureusement ce produit est trop léger pour hydrater ma peau en hiver. Ce serait peut-être une bonne option pour l'été alors que j'ai la peau plus huileuse.

    Quenching moisturizer perfect for summer hydration

    I absolutely love this face cream! I find it comparable to gel moisturizers from more expensive, boutique brands in terms of quality, texture, and effectiveness. It's also light enough that I can put it on in the morning as I get ready, as a daytime moisturizer, or underneath makeup as a very smooth moisturizer/primer duo. It's also a very refreshing cream to put on when the weather gets warm, as gel moisturizers seem to have a cooling effect on the face - because of this, it also doesn't feel heavy or greasy, and I don't get scared about breaking out when I use it. The only thing I would change about it is the scent, which is a bit too powerful and reminds me of cheap soap used in public bathrooms.

    Hydrating goodness

    Neutrogenas Hydro boost line is doing great things for me so far. Im using a deluxe sample of this product at the moment. My favourite formula is a gel texture as it is light weight but has heavy impact. My skin is hydrated but not heavy feeling. I think i will really enjoy this cream in the summer when its hot. I think it comes with an spf formula which I will definitly try.

    I received this complimentary from Chickadvisor for revieeung purposes.

    Great for dry skin

    I have very dry skin and this product was amazing. I’ve been using it in the mornings before applying my foundation for the day, and my skin feels hydrated all day. Thanks Chick Advisor for allowing me to try it! Would definitely recommend, though is pricey.

    Pour une peau plus hydratée!

    Cette nouvelle formule de Neutrogena Hydro Boost pour peaux sèches fonctionne bien. J'ai été ravie de l'essayer pour Chick Advisor.

    Tout d'abord, étant une ancienne utilisatrice d'Aquasource de Biotherm, j'aime bien sa texture 'gel'. Elle est légère et pénètre très rapidement dans la peau.

    Pour sa fragrance, elle est très légère, on la sent à peine. J'aurais peut-être apprécié une odeur un peu plus prononcée (mais pas trop non plus quand même! Ahhh les femmes!)

    Enfin, elle laisse vraiment la peau plus douce et bien hydratée.

    Merci Chick Advisor pour ce banc d'essai! #cadeau

    Will purchase the full size

    I received NEUTROGENA HYDRO BOOST GEL CREAM free to try out and I was very satisfied with the smell, and overall feel of this cream.

    I have never used a gel cream on my face before so at first I was a bit hesitant to apply it all over my face. I ended up trying it out and this cream absorbed really nicely into my skin and with that it did keep my skin well hydrated throughout the day.

    The only thing that I noticed is that around my nose was a little dry but that is typical for me so it did not bug me at all.

    I have to point out that the cream didn't feel sticky. I am really happy with this.

    Good facial boost

    This left my skin feeling fresh, soft and not oily. The texture is smooth and is absorbed quickly by my skin, so I was easily able to apply make up on top. This gave my skin a boost when not needing to wear make up. This was great for my skin suffering slightly from dryness after Winter.
