Restores vitality for refresh, plump, glowing skin. 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. Another key ingredient used in the Neutrogena Hydro Boost lineup is glycerin, a type of humectant. A humectant is a hygroscopic substance that has a molecular structure with several hydrophilic (water loving) groups, such as hydroxyl groups (OH) and/or amine groups (NH2). Glycerin is one of the most common humectants. Its structure with three hydroxyl groups allows these groups to hydrogen bond with water, essentially “grabbing” it and holding it on the skin. Therefore, the inclusion of glycerin in the CeraVe Moisturizing Cream can help to improve your skin’s hydration.Now that I incorporate a source of hydration into my skin care routine, my skin type is closer to combination skin. In the colder months, I notice more dryness, especially on my cheeks and under my eyes. In the warmer months, which is most of the year in California, I lean on the oily side, especially in my T-zone.

In addition to functioning as an antioxidant, niacinamide provides many more benefits to the skin. For example, a publication in the Journal of Clinical and Aesthetic Dermatology, states that niacinamide can repair the skin barrier and improve skin moisture, as well as reduce inflammation, blotchiness, hyperpigmentation, acne, and wrinkling.

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. The key to maintaining healthy, youthful skin starts and ends with hydration. Hydration plays such a crucial part in proper skin care that Neutrogena, a leading affordable skincare brand, created an entire line focused specifically on solving all of your hydration needs. With the Neutrogena Hydro Boost skincare line, you ’ll experience glowing skin that is hydrated, soft, and smooth.Thanks to ingredients like hyaluronic acid and dimethicone, our skin feels noticeably softer after use. If you have skin on the drier side, you might not feel super hydrated, but with that said, Hydro Boost has kept our skin from becoming too dry. Despite its lightness, it seems to soak into the skin and hydrate it from the inside out.

I’m always feeling wary that my skin is too oily or shiny, but this gel moisturizer didn’t make my skin feel or look greasy. I could apply this and go out into the world without feeling self-conscious about my shiny forehead. I also took advantage of this moisturizer’s skin-smoothing dimethicone and used it as a primer for makeup. It held up nicely.
