   Esta crema es excelente para todo tipo de piel, incluyendo las grasas, es un mito que no ocupen crema las pieles grasas, se absorbe muy rápido, no queda pegajosa ni deja la piel tirante. Entre sus beneficios por su formulación me atrevería a decir que solo sirve para hidratar, y vaya que lo hace muy bien, sien embargo, si estas buscando una crema para arrugas, quitar granitos, etc. esta no es para ti, solo es crema hidratante.

   The Story:Like everyone else I am getting older and with time our skin changes, so decided to have an overhaul of make-up and skincare products. I’ve got to the stage where I find using foundation more of a highlighter of my skins faults more than anything else and so have been looking to improve the overall texture and brightness of my skin in order to negate using it. Part of my revised regime is the inclusion of hyaluronic acid containing products and this is a review of one of them.The Product:This is a 50ml pot of a lightweight and easy to disperse gel cream. It sinks in immediately leaving the skin silky smooth to the touch without greasiness. The product contains hyaluronic acid a naturally occurring molecule in body tissue, which as the years progress, decreases. Hyaluronic acid is a non-irritating skincare ingredient. It is suitable for all skin types, as all skin types need hydration, but it is especially beneficial for aging or dehydrated skin. Hyaluronic acid is an exceptional hydrator capable of holding 1000 times (one thousand) its weight in water which it draws from the atmosphere giving the skin the hydration it needs because the hyaluronan in the body is degraded and synthesised by a third every day. I use it twice a day and my skin is now beautiful and supple.The ingredients:Not all Neutrogena® Hydro Boost products are made equal. This particular item contains Methylparaben which is a type of paraben. Parabens are chemicals that are often used as preservatives to give products a longer shelf life. They’re added to food or cosmetics to prevent the growth of mould and other harmful bacteria. Methylparaben doesn’t accumulate in the body. In fact, the body flushes the chemical out quite quickly. However, if this is something you are trying to avoid you may want to bypass this.The Verdict:This is an ultra light moisturiser that absorbs quickly into the skin leaving no heaviness or greasiness. Being non-comedogenic it doesn’t block pores and is a fabulous addition to my regime; I love this. All in all this has been the right choice (for me) and I think you will like it too.The above narrative is my opinion only and does not in any way represent Neutrogena® or Amazon.If you found my review helpful, please click the ‘Helpful’ button below so I know it has been of use.

   A Holy Grail for Silky Smooth, Glowing Skin!
   So, I just got this to try after trying the Hydro Boost fragrance-free body gel cream and loving it, and I’m happy to report that I’m beyond thrilled with the matching Face Moisturizer!I have been interested in skin care for over a decade, and as an avid holistic / natural health fanatic, I would always shy away from “conventional” brands (usually for good reason!). However, over the years all of the natural products and their 5 million essential oils were just not cutting it for me, a lot of times I didn’t jive with the scent or didn’t want some of the oils. I do love EvanHealy but can’t always swing the price point. Anyways, I am practicing an 80/20 lifestyle and decided to try the HydroBoost line after hearing great things and being fed up with my peeling, broken out skin. The literal absence of any scent surprised me, and there isn’t any blue coloring like in the non fragrance-free. No burning, tingling, or irritation upon usage. It’s like my skin just drank it.Being someone with combination acne-prone skin, finding the right moisturizer can be a challenge. However, this product strikes the perfect balance, providing hydration without being greasy or heavy.It’s a lightweight and fast-absorbing formula and I think it’s going to be great for long-term acne control.

   Excellent product, new favorite moisturizer
   WOW. So, I didn’t buy this product expecting it to be a miracle worker, but …I am 30 years old and raised in Florida. I’m not sure whether it’s age or moving north that has caused the problem, but in the wintertime I suffer from extremely dry skin, especially around my eyes and under my chin. I was noticing that the dryness was giving this skin a wrinkled, crepe-y appearance that made me look much older, so I decided I needed to invest in a better moisturizer. I’m an Amazon addict, so I came here first looking for an under-eye moisturizer. I was specifically looking for something that was gentle and frangrance-free, since I have sensitive skin, especially around my eyes.After reading the reviews for this product (and the helpful one that explained that the extra-dry skin gel-cream had the same ingredients as the eye gel-cream for cheaper), I decided to give this a try. Compared to my usual moisturizer cost of $30 for 16oz, this was a big investment, but I figured if it didn’t work it was only $15 out of pocket.After two weeks of using it, I can say that I will DEFINITELY be purchasing this product again. Not only has it solved my dry skin problems around my eyes and neck, but I have been applying to the rest of my face at night before bed (I used a lighter weight moisturizer on the rest of my face during the day). I’ve found that my skin overall is smoother and the skin tone more even after a couple weeks of using this product. I struggle with adult acne on my chin/cheeks and have not had any breakouts and in fact may actually be getting fewer zits since starting this routine.I will note that you should be careful applying this around your eyes. I’ve found that if I get any of the gel in my eyelashes, it will migrate into my eyes and cause a slight irritation. It’s less than other products I have used, but still noticeable.Update 2/22/2017: I’ve been using this for almost two months now and my original jar is just starting to run out. I am still blown away by how well this moisturizes. Regarding my acne, although I still get occasional breakouts, any problem spots heal much faster using this moisturizer – red spots fade and disappear over the course of a couple of days, rather than a couple of weeks. I will definitely be continuing to use this – I’ve subscribed to have a new jar sent from Amazon every other month!Update 11/6/2018: I’ve been using this moisturizer for almost 2 years now and it’s the only thing in my daily routine that never changes. It’s absolutely worth the investment, and I have it on a monthly Subscribe & Save. I’ve gifted it to a few friends and they have all converted as well – one friend even complained because her husband actually stole her jar, he liked it so much! Out of all the skin products I have used over the years, this remains my all-time favorite.

   Absolutely love this stuff.
   I purchased the 1.7 oz, of Extra-Dry Skin gel-cream. I honestly was seriously skeptical about buying this. For the first time ever, the skin on my face just absolutely dried up. It was seriously dry and at the time I feared it was psoriasis. I originally was using just some random lotion (body lotion to be exact), and then I bought some off brand cetaphil. That only put a layer on my face that went away quickly. As a college student that lacks money, I was really skeptical because I didn’t want to buy crap that was $14 and have it not work, but my skin got so bad that I would try anything. The box and everything came in tact. At first I tried it, it did burn. I can’t contribute it to the ingredients in the bottle because previously I had basically just stripped my skin of everything that almost anything put on my face, even if it was meant to be soothing, burned. I continued with putting it on my face when I felt it was extremely dry, so usually mornings when I wake up, right after classes (which is usually around 3-4 hours later, and then right after my shower (since I exfoliate). Now it is not completely “long lasting”. I do have to reapply a few times a day, but in the long run, I have noticed that my skin has become a lot more moist and “plump” compared to what it was before. Before I rubbed my face and it sounded like sandpaper and felt even worse. Now my skin feels amazing, my face no longer burns when I apply this stuff, and overall it really does give a cool refreshing feeling. There really is no smell to it, unless you are super super sensitive to smells and directly sniffed the cream then I guess you could say it is “chemically”, and by chemically I just mean like nothing has been added. They just add the ingredients and nothing else. You may smell something every time you open the bottle, maybe if your face is close enough, but once you apply it to your skin I noticed the smell vanishes quite quickly. I read a lot of the reviews and I took a chance and I am extremely happy with this product. Even when my skin goes back to normal, I plan on using this stuff. For me this stuff worked like a miracle. Once applied definitely gives you a smoother feel to the face, but don’t expect immediate results. It does go away and that dry skin will come back, but much like an ointment or medicine, you just have to keep applying it when you feel necessary. In no way shape or form am I being paid to write a good review. I just found this stuff as a new college student in a slightly new environment (same state, just different city), with skin problems, to be an amazing solution that is worth the “splurge”.
