Q: What is the difference between thisi product and the water gel?
submitted by Patricia - 2 years ago
A: That's a great question, Patricia! Our NEW Neutrogena® Hydro Boost Water Cream is a rich, velvety cream that transforms to a lightweight, water-like feel upon application. It was designed to deliver more intense and longer-lasting hydration than our previous formulas with clinically proven 72-hour hydration, and is also gentle enough to use on all skin types including the most sensitive like eczema and rosacea. Our original Neutrogena® Hydro Boost Water Gel is ideal for normal and oily skin types. If you are looking for hydration that is clinically-proven to be gentle on dry, sensitive and acne-prone skin or for certain skin conditions, please try the NEW Neutrogena® Hydro Boost Water Cream or the NEW Neutrogena® Hydro Boost Water Gel Fragrance Free formulas.
submitted byJohnson & Johnson - 2 years agoBrand expertA: The water gel is for normal to oily skin and provides less hydration. The water cream is for normal to dry skin and provides much more hydration. Nice, dewy finish. Not tacky at all.

This was recommended by my dermatologist. I have very dry, but also oily skin. It definitely hydrates, but doesn’t feel like it fully absorbs. It makes my face look even more oily after a while, so I will only really use it at home.

horrible formula change - Stay far away
Why would a brand discontinue a beloved producT and reformulate it when literally no one asked for that? Usually because they want to use cheaper ingredients and sell us a worse product for the same or more expensive price. and that’s exactly what happened here. this formulation breaks me out, pills like crazy, and feels awful on my skin. having to find a new holy grail moisturizer after 5 years. Don’t waste your money

Moisture in a bottle!
This moisturizer is a Godsend for my desert dry skin. It deeply hydrates my skin and leaves it supple. I’ve struggled for so long to find an affordable moisturizer that works for me (I mean I’m using it every single day for God’s sake, I can’t keep buying a $50 cream every month), and I’m happy to report that this is it!

Formula change
Just ran out of Hydro Boost Water gel and thought I was buying the same thing but this is not the water gel I loved. The formula has changed And ruined the product. Now it leaves a residue on the skin. The original water gel was absorbed into the skin.

She thick
I was introduced to this by my dermatologist. I have combination skin. It also is very sensitive and acne prone. I have tried a lot of moisturizers and this one hydrates without making my skin feel greasy and breakout. The cream is thick but once on the skin it's light. The wizardry of it is awesome.

Bad smell
I'm not sure how good the product is because I cant get over how much it smells like a urinal cake. Sorry for the caps not trying to shout. It just won't allow me to write in upper lower case. I was excited about this product but I think im going to throw it away because of how bad it smells.

oily & greasy feeling
This actually turned out to be a mistake purchase because I thought I was getting the water GEL for extra-dry skin but after trying this CREAM a few times; it left my face feeling more oily and greasy feeling compared to the GEL. The GEL is much more lighter & absorbs better. I will be returning this item.
