Neutrogena Oil Free Moisturiser

Yes, this moisturiser is part of my night time skin care regime at the moment (LOL that sounded like I have an extensive skin care routine going on every night... I don't, it's just basic clean, tone and moisturise) While this product is targeted for people with 'sensitive skin' I am so shocked as to why it stings the sensitive area around my nose so much!!! Nothing I use stings my skin, since I have considerably 'tough' skin, but this, this is a b***h to slap on at night sometimes because the red area around my nose just goes *stingstingsting..... I am honestly not sure why :( However, despite that it's a nice moisturiser as it's not too heavy and it does it's job, which is essentially moisturising. During winter I felt this moisturiser wasn't enough for me as my nose got a bit flaky (yeah Neutrogena do you have a grudge against my nose ><) however, since it's summer it moisturises quite decently at the moment. Another thing, I am close to finishing this bottle (I do not intend to repurchase since I like trialling new products) but I have to open the squeeze cap and scoop out moisturiser because pumper just doesn't seem to want to pump any more. It's an annoying and tedious thing to be scooping bits of cream from the corners and bottoms of a plastic bottle >:(

I purchased this moisturiser recently when mine ran out and I wanted to try something new. I have sensitive skin which is what drew me to this product, along with the fact that it's non pore clogging and also easily found for a good price. I was also looking for a mosituriser without SPF (doesn't sound great, I know) but.. my BB already has SPF and I don't want and overload for photo time. This product definitely provides moisture without irritation and is good for summer as its very light weight. The only issue I have with it is that it isn't anything super special and if I accidentally get it in my eyes it stings soooo bad! I think for my next moisturiser i'll be looking for something a little more richer.

i used this a wee while ago, and cant say i would purchase it again, i just found it didnt hydrate my skin nor the smell, i like my products to smell goood, even though ive got oily/combination skin i didnt seem to see an improvment, did not feel smooth,soft or moisterized

I used this for a while even though I have dry skin and not oily skin. But even though it had no oil in the product I didn't find anything different to it than a normal moisturiser. This product was okay and it is definitely safe to use on sensitive skin, it didn't irritate my skin at all.

I think this is an ok moisturiser for the price and what it is. It is very light which is great if you are looking for something easy to pop on that will soak in quickly. I probably wouldn't repurchase as I do prefer others to this and like something that is really hydrating and this one doesn't do it for me!

This was one of the first face moisturizers I ever tried and I found it quite good. It would be more suitable for oily skin types not those with drier skin like myself as it doesn't provide much hydration but if your skin is already oily it would be sufficient. I purchased it as I do have sensitive skin and it didn't irritate it at all so would be good if your skin is extremely sensitive. As I have dry skin I don't feel it leaves my face hydrated for a decent amount of time so I wouldn't repurchase.

It's light-weight but still manages to be moisturising. Perhaps if you have really dry skin it won't be enough for you, but I find it perfect for summer.

Overall this is a good moisturiser and it's pretty cheap too.

This moisturiser is a good basic and I like that it is oil free. It's lightweight and absorbs easily but it has no SPF which is an issue for me. I like that it has a pump, and I use two for my whole face and neck. It's nice enough but nothing special.

My skin type is combination dry, depending on what time on the year it is. In summer it is more oily, and in winter it does get drier and more sensitive so I brought this product in my weekly grocery shop when I had run out of my current moisturizer.

The packaging on this product is simple, it comes in white plastic pump bottle, with a clear label sticker with all the details on that. I did think the design was effective initially, but half way through the bottle the pump somehow jammed which meant I had to unscrew the lid and use the plastic pump tube to scrape the product out of the packaging which I was not that impressed with, as well as the fact that it really time consuming doing it that way. However, I think I just got a dodgy bottle, and have not heard this happening to anyone else.

The moisturiser itself is white, and slightly thick. I would say its slightly creamy but very lightweight and it does get absorbed by my skin really quickly, leaving it looking hydrated! This product is advertised as fragrance free and yes although there might not be any fragrances added to the moisturizer, it does have a smell, and one im not a big fan of. Luckily its very subtle and disappears quickly, but it kind of reminds me of a sunblock smell mixed with moisturizer! Not the best description I know!

So the big question? Is this moisturizer good for sensitive skin? Well I can’t speak for everyone, but I can say this has not made my skin break out, and it has done a good job keeping my skin hydrated in the last few months (Spring/summer). However, in the colder months I found it was not hydrating enough for my skin. Additionally, this is not my go to moisturizer in the summer months because I opt for a moisturizer with a spf of 30 or more, and my skin is in love with Oasis Apple a day at the moment. So, this is a great back-up moisturizer, but definitely not a must have moisturizer.

I'm kind of on the fence with this moisturiser. I have combination skin and I get quite oily around my T-Zone. When I first started using it like 10 months ago, it would feel great on my face! Light and moisturising, and keep my oil at bay. Then I paused from using it for awhile, and when I restarted again, it didn't help me at all? I started breaking out frequently, and when I stopped using it, my break outs would stop too. So that really put me off.

Nowadays, I occasionally ever use it as a spare facial moisturiser, but not regularly anymore because I'm afraid my skin will keep breaking out. I do believe it does what it says it claims to do in their description, but if your skin is oily or combination, I don't recommend this for you. Although, I believe people with dry skin will definitely thrive from this product!
