    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm loving this product so far! This water gel is such a good combination of hydration and protection. The gel feels refreshing going onto my skin and leaves my skin feeling plump and quenched. It's so great to have the SPF built in so I don't have to layer another product and risk pilling and 25spf for me is perfect for daily wear. A little of this product goes along way so you're getting great value for the size. The product soaks into my skin pretty quickly and doesn't leave any greasy or oily residue behind like some sunscreens.

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm in love with the Neutrogena Hydroboost Sunscreen - it has hyaluronic acid that hydrates and moisturizes so well, and SPF25 sun protection in one single lightweight combination. Clean fresh feeling, no oiliness either, I have combination skin so this is very important to me. Highly recommended!

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have very sensitive skin, so I was initially worried this might cause irritation, but it turned out to be a great choice! The gel-like texture is perfectly balanced (not too runny or too thick) and it absorbs beautifully into the skin. I love using it in my morning routine for its added sun protection. It feels smooth and keeps my skin hydrated, even during the harsh winter months. Overall, it’s a soothing, lightweight moisturizer that delivers lasting hydration and protection!

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this Hydro Boost City Shield by Neutrogena. This is a water gel sunscreen. The broadband spectrum is SPF 25. This has hydrated and smoothed and soothed my skin. I feel way more confident with this sunscreen and the prevention that it gives. This has hyaluronic Acid and Antioxidant. Also love how easy it is to apply and absorbs perfectly into my skin with no nasty residue or sticky texture. I really like how this water gel feels on my skin.

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the Neutrogena Hydro Boost line and this product is no exception. It really feels like the moisture sinks into my skin well and I can feel the difference in how hydrated my skin is. It doesn't smell as strong as most sunscreens but its nice to know that it helps protect your skin against pollution. Definitely be careful about making sure that you wash your face well any day you use this because overnight the sunscreen component may be comedogenic.

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve always been a fan of this line and I was so excited to find out that it’s now even more of a do-it-all skincare product thanks to the addition of sun protection! It makes a perfect gift for those who might be just starting out with skincare. It does pill a little and is more of a lightweight moisturizer, intended to use in your morning routine.

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am a regular user of Neutrogena's original HydroBoost moisturizer and have been WAITING excitedly for one with SPF protection added, and it's finally here! This is a fantastic product, is so lightweight, moisturizes well, and I appreciate the addition of SPF protection. While I prefer the fragrance free version of the HydroBoost line, this still is a classic tried and true moisturizer that's now even better!

That’s so great of it because you can use it whatever you want to wear it also Protect your face it’s really easy to apply it. That’s what I don’t like about this product.
