Water Gel Moisturiser

I’ve been using Neutrogena Hydro Boost Water Gel for a while now, and I’m really impressed with how well it performs as a daily moisturiser. It has a lightweight, gel-like texture that absorbs almost instantly into the skin, leaving it feeling fresh, soft, and well hydrated without any greasy residue. One of the best things about it is how quickly it sinks in — it feels almost like water going onto the skin, but still manages to provide long-lasting hydration thanks to ingredients like hyaluronic acid. It also layers really well under makeup and sunscreen, which makes it perfect for a morning skincare routine. My skin feels noticeably smoother and more balanced when I use it regularly, especially in warmer weather or when I want something light that won’t clog pores. It gives that healthy, plump “dewy” look without feeling heavy. Overall, it’s a reliable, affordable, and effective moisturiser that lives up to the hype. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a simple, everyday hydration boost, especially if they prefer a lightweight gel formula.

I bought this after getting fed up with heavy creams that sit on top of my skin and make me shiny by lunchtime. This one is the opposite. It goes on like water, sinks in within seconds and leaves no film at all, so I can put sunscreen straight over it without waiting. The hydration is the part that surprised me. My skin stays comfortable all day, no tight feeling, no dry patches around the nose. It has hyaluronic acid, which pulls water into the skin, and you can genuinely see the difference after a week of using it morning and night. A few things worth knowing. It is oil free and has not caused me a single breakout. It is fragrance free, so if you like a spa scent from your skincare, this is not that. The 50ml jar lasts me around two months using it twice a day, which makes the price hard to argue with. If your skin is very dry in winter you may want something richer at night, but for everyday use this covers everything I need. I have used moisturisers costing five times as much and none of them worked better than this one. It has become the only one I repurchase.

I’ve tried my fair share of moisturisers — from drugstore basics to high-end ones like Dior’s serum and gel set (which, trust me, is lovely but wildly overpriced 💸). I even experimented with Korean brands like Gurum. But you know what? This Neutrogena Hydro Boost holds its ground — and then some. 🙌 ✅ What I Love: 💦 Instant hydration – As soon as I apply it, my skin feels plump and refreshed. It absorbs quickly, no greasy residue, and leaves that smooth, clean finish that makes you want to touch your face (but don’t 😅). 🧴 Gel texture = fast-absorbing + non-sticky – Perfect for layering under sunscreen or makeup, or just using solo in the morning or before bed. 💲 Price-to-performance ratio is insane – Honestly, it outperformed my Dior cream that costs 10x as much. That says a lot. 🌬️ Feels weightless – Even on my sensitive skin, it doesn’t clog, sting, or feel heavy. ⚠️ Could Be Better: 🧊 No “wow” scent or luxury feel – It’s fragrance-light and simple, so don’t expect spa vibes. 📦 Packaging varies – I’ve had different caps and boxes show up, but the formula always delivers. 🧖‍♂️ Perfect For: ✔️ Daily hydration for normal to dry skin ✔️ People who hate greasy moisturisers ✔️ Skincare lovers who don’t want to break the bank ✔️ Men and women who just want something that works If you’re tired of spending a fortune hoping to get hydrated, glowing skin — give this a try. It quietly outperforms the big names and just gets the job done. Easily my go-to now. 🔵💧

I really love this product. It melts into the skin instantly and feels incredibly light, almost like water, but still leaves my skin properly hydrated. It doesn’t feel greasy at all and, most importantly for me, it doesn’t clog my pores, which is rare. The formula is based on hyaluronic acid, which is great for attracting and holding moisture in the skin, along with amino acids and electrolytes that help support the skin barrier and keep hydration levels up throughout the day. You can really feel that “plumped” hydrated effect after applying it. It’s oil-free and very lightweight, so it works well under makeup and for daily use. Neutrogena is a well-known dermatology-led brand (part of Johnson & Johnson), and their products are generally developed with skin health in mind. In terms of animal testing, they do not test on animals where it is not required by law, but they are not considered fully cruelty-free globally. For my skin, which is quite dry, this product is perfect during the day, but I do need to pair it with a richer moisturiser at night (like their Hydro Boost Gel-Cream for extra dry skin) to get enough nourishment overnight. Overall, a really good daily moisturiser if you want something lightweight, hydrating, and non-clogging.

As I've gotten older my skin has decided it doesn't want creamy, scented, sticky or gloopy 'products'. It's not enamoured of so many products these days... but it really does like this Neutrogena Hydro Boost gel. It's very easily absorbed. I use it after a shower. A blob in my hands swiped on to my face like I'm washing, ending with a swipe down on to my neck. I feels lovely. Cooling. There's no tacky feel either. It absorbs completely. My old face and skin veer toward dry. I very occasionally get a little eczema... this helps. It leaves me feeling - very cliche but honest - fresh. I used to pay a lot for brands that cost a small fortune. I do wonder now whether it was ever worth it. This particular product has been on my Christmas stocking list the last six years. My children's hot line to Santa has ensured I haven't had to spend anything! Buy this, add it to your Christmas list!

This water gel is fantastic, I use it daily, it has a wonderful scent, not overpowering, it is absorbed wonderfully by the skin and doesnt feel oily at all, I will use this forever!

Liked it but what a horrible scent

Brought this as my skin was quite dehydrated. It worked wonders! Dry skin disappeared and my skin felt lovely and hydrated. Would buy again

Good

So good, my skin is better now than 5 years ago or when I was a teenager. Definitely recommend to sensitive skin and mixed skin prone to acne.

Perfect for very oily skin, light and moisturizing

I don't like it, my face feels sticky after using it and I see that it doesn't help me reduce skin sebum.
