Neutrogena Hydro Boost Night Cream, Moisturising Night Cream Face Cream with Hyaluronic Acid, Vegetable Trehalose and Self-Smoothing Gel (1 x 50 ml)

Product Information

As a skin care enthusiast, I enjoy trying out new products to see if they’ll earn a semi-permanent place in my rather simple routine.

Please note that Royal Mail currently classes perfumes, nail polishes, flammable liquids and aerosols as "hazardous materials" and will only accept a limited number of these per parcel. The night cream featured here is targeted at people with dry complexions and applied to the face. Neutrogena attributes moisturising and hydrating qualities to it, declaring that it works against dry skin and premature ageing. Ingredients include hyaluronic acid. A naturally occurring substance in the dermis, hyaluronic acid can decrease percentage-wise over time. The factors that cause this are environmental aggressors and the natural ageing process. One gram of HA can hold up to an amazing 6 L of water. That's why it's added to many skincare products to "plump" and hydrate, helping to decrease the appearance of creases. It also has antioxidant properties. Neutrogena Facial CareActs as a protective layer over the skin to help prevent moisture loss. Our smart hydrator naturally holds moisture in when the skin needs it. The blue formula, which gets its hue from synthetic dyes, glides onto the skin and disappears shortly after. It sinks in without a trace, leaving only the feeling of soft, moisturized skin. It also layers well with other products. The gel consistency feels more “wet” than your typical moisturizer, so multiple layers of skin care products can blend together seamlessly. One of the first things I noticed about this moisturizer, aside from the blue color, was the fragrance. It has an overwhelming scent that lingers. For those sensitive to fragrance, there is an unscented version, which is formulated for extra-dry skin.

I’m also prone to mild breakouts, so I’m mindful of the ingredients I put on my skin. My skin care routineThe NMF cream contains a group of moisturising ingredients that help maintain skin hydration. The Hydro Boost Night Cream NMF complex features 20% more Hyaluronic Acid**, Amino Acids, known to support and strengthen the skin barrier; Electrolytes, known to boost ingredient absorption; and Peptides, known to improve skin suppleness. The cream acts as a protective layer over the skin to help prevent moisture loss. Skin is intensely hydrated with a supple, dewy glow that lasts all day long, leaving you with rested and revitalised skin that stays hydrated for 24 hours. For a long time, I described my skin type as oily. Once I learned more about how to properly care for my skin, I realized that oiliness was a side effect of dehydration.
