I have been using this moisturizer on and off for around 8 years now! It is my trusty go-to that I always purchase when I see it on sale (it is regularly up to 40% off at Countdown, Pac n Save or Chemist Warehouse now). I keep using this product because I love the gel texture, and it absorbs into my skin so well leaving it dewy and feeling so moisturised. I also love the night version, which I sometimes use in the day during winter when I need extra hydration. I have bought this so many times I have lost count, and always finish it. It is the only product I have been loyal too this long, it works, feels lovely to use, and the price is great. I have recommended this to quite a few friends too. Love it!

I absolutely love this product and noticed a difference in my skin the next day! Neutrogena generally is very good for my skin, no irritation and always improves my skin. Highly recommend.
Tips: Use at night so it absorbs
I saw a Davey Rooney video explaining the difference between dry and dehydrated skin and decided to give this a go, and wow I'm not disappointed!!! Within a few days my skin has become so soft and way less oily too.
Tips: At night pop a thin layer of vaseline on after applying the gel
Back in 2022, I happened to buy this product off a chemist warehouse shelf, merely because of the word 'hydro'. Honestly, I didn't expect much initially but now this is one of the products i cannot live without. For someone, who has always struggled to keep skin hydrated, this product was really God sent! I love it much that I am nearly on my 6th bottle and I use it both AM and PM and also as needed during the day.
Tips: Pro tip # 1 - Don't forget to apply on your hands, it works so well on the hands too! Pro tip # 2 - Apply it as the very product on your skin whilest it's damp, as soon as you shower or wash your face. This will keep your skin hydrated for longer.
As somebody with sensory issues, I really enjoy the texture of this moisturiser. It is thick but lightweight, and not sticky or slimey at all. It's also very nice and hydrating for my super dry skin. It does have a fragrance, but it isn't too strong and it doesn't hang around for too long. I will definitely repurchase this item.
I'm onto my 2nd pottle so far, so that has to say something about this one. The gel formulation is so 'soft' and lightweight. It does feel quite 'wet' when you apply it and sometimes I think I've used too much, but my skin just soaks it up. It can feel a little tacky for a minute or so after applying but that goes away very quickly and I'm left with slightly dewy looking skin. The name Hydro Boost certainly describes what it does. I mainly use it in the evening and since using it I find my skin actually looks plumper and feels moisturised in the morning. I don't know how it all works, but a few fine lines around my eyes are definitely less noticeable. The scent is light, which is perfect for those of us with extra sensitive noses. Highly recommend if you are looking for a new moisturiser that's not the traditional cream.
I have oily skin which breaks out, but I have terrible transepidermal water loss. This product works amazing. It gives me moisture without making me break out. The texture is amazing, and goes on perfectly under foundation! The only downside I would have to say is the long list of ingredients, though I am still yet to find a better moisturiser for my skin. I can't wait to try the rest of the range!
Tips: Perfect for use under foundation as it gives an even base!
From the moment I opened the box everything about his product was fresh. The cool blue glass jar & the blue tinted gel. It all looks very elegant.
I love the feeling of putting this on every morning. It smells great and goes on so well leaving my skin feeling so light and fresh ready to seize the day.
Since using this product my skin is definitely looking healthier and more hydrated through out the whole day.
I am so in love with this product! I was super excited to try this, as I have never tried a gel moisturizer and now that I have, I don't think I would go back.
It’s super hydrating and makes my skin feel super soft and refreshing. I use mine twice a day, once in the morning and again at night after my shower. The only down side that I had notice with using this was that after my shower at night and can sting a little when applying. This is no biggie to me as I realize that my skin is open up and the sensitive areas are more irritable at this stage. If you have sensitive skin it may pay to test it before going with a full size pot or even see if there is an option for sensitive skin.
The packaging is nice and light, instead of a glass pot it is plastic, which is good (just in case you drop it on the bathroom tiles) and the lid goes on nice and easy. The gel its self is nice and light and soaks up nicely once it is on your skin. It does not leave a sticky feeling on your face, which some gel base products can do. I believe that since I have start using this, my skin is feeling a lot more hydrated and I would recommend this product to my friends and family
I really love Neutrogena as a brand. Nothing I have ever used from them has affected my sensitive skin. This is a nice gel/cream formula and a little bit goes a long way. Feels alot like a serum/moisturiser. Love it! I’m on my second tub
