    J'adore

    J'ai reçu gratuitement le Neutrogena Hydro Boost Water Gel Sunscreen SPF 50 afin de pouvoir l'essayer. Je dois dire que c'est un coup de cœur pour moi. J'ai adoré sa texture sur mon visage. Étant très active à l'extérieur (course à pied) je dois absolument mettre un écran solaire. Celui-ci est fantastique pas d'effet gommant sur mon visage. Je vais en acheter c'est certain. Vraiment à essayer! Merci ChickAdvisor!!!!

    Bring on the sun!

    Instantly fell in love with the new Neutrogena Hydro Boost water gel sunscreen with hyaluronic acid. It is hypoallergenic, dermatologist recommended and 80 minutes of water resistance!! That alone sold you on it right? Me too!

    I applied it and I noticed it smells just like a tropical getaway, very clean and fresh! It didn't take long to be completely absorbed or leave a white residue like other sunscreens.

    It has UVA and UVB protection and it's extremely light weight but very hydrating leaving your skin feeling quenched.

    I love the affordable price range, the smell, the consistency and the guaranteed protection. Now I just need the warmer weather. I can't wait to spread the word on this fantastic sunscreen! Thank you ChickAdvisor for the products in exchange for my honest review!

    Wow

    I love this sunscreen! My skin doesn't feel sticky or oily whatsoever when I use it, it smells nice, light and fresh! It leaves a healthy radiance to my skin which is very nice. I think this is one of the best sunscreens I have tried! I love Neutrogena and this product can be added to their long list of successes!

    Wondeful addition to my suncare routine

    This sunscreen is great. It doesn't smell like suncreen usually smells.

    This suncreen is very light on the skin and does not feel greasy, but it still seems to moisturize my skin.

    I love the packaging. It is simple and smooth, and the tube allows the user to use all of the product (unlike a hard plastic bottle).

    While the price of this suncreen is a bit high, it seems to be worth it for a quality product.

    Hard to tell when it isn't summer, but it is great!

    I actually used this as my moisturizer for a few days and I also applied it to my two year old son. It says it is safe for kids as well which you don't find on some products like this. I love how controversial it makes the product because it means i only have to buy one sun screen instead of one for me and one for him. I would pay the money for this just for the hydrating properties and the scent! I love the aloe scent and when i applied it to my sons arms he couldn't stop smelling himself HAHA! Not oily and even though we couldn't test it in the sun, it is indeed water resistant! Great stuff!

    Lightweight and no white cast

    I received the Neutrogena Hydro boost Water Gel SPF 50 for free as part of the chick advisors program. I love that it doesn’t leave a white cast, usually sunscreens leave me looking a little sickly but this blends in. It doesn’t make my oily/combo skin greasy, has a light scent, and the texture isn’t heavy at all. I’ll definitely be using this during the summer months

    definitely better than traditional sunscreen!

    I found this very similar to one of Neutrogena's other sunscreens, the "Ultra Sheer Face Sunscreen". I find this better than the Ultra Sheer face version because it is much easier to apply. Instead of being extremely liquidy (like water almost) this is a nice consistency but does not feel like a cream, which is great! I like the way the product goes on and that it doesn't "feel" greasy on my skin (feels like it dries quickly), but I think it still made my skin look a little greasy. I think it's hard to avoid with suncreen, so I will say that at least this product made my skin LESS greasy looking than traditional/cheaper sunscreen. Also, this smells almost exactly like Banana Boat brand sunscreen - which I would much prefer to the traditional scent of sunscreen! Personally I did not have a problem with the smell, but if you need something unscented than this is unfortunately not for you.

    Mixed feelings on this one...

    The first thing I noticed is that this product smells nothing like sunscreen. Which is a good thing in some cases. I HATE the smell of "normal" sunscreen but LOVE the smell of Banana Boat haha. I found the smell of this product quite perfumey. It went on smoothly but leaves a greasy feeling. But I guess all sunscreens do? The price is pretty average for a nicer sunscreen. Can't really comment on effectiveness because it hasn't been very sunny yet this year. Overall not really sure if I'd buy this. It smells great but so does Banana Boat....

    Amazing product

    I have very fair and sensitive skin which is often sunburnt, having a wearable spf moisturizer allows me to be confident and not worry about applying sunscreen. It is non-oily and very silky smooth. Definitely worth a purchase and provides excellent protection! Would definitely recommend!!
