Why I Love Neutrogena

I am a person who believes that everyone should have a skin care routine. Even if this is 3 quick, simple steps, it seriously will make you feel better and more put together! Now being a mom, Neutrogena has seriously made it very easy for me to follow my skincare routine.       

 Around the time that I entered middle school I developed acne. Nothing crazy but I definitely had a few pimples on my face most of the time. This is when I became more interested in washing my face and trying to find products that would help my acne. I tried many drug store products like clean&clear, elf, Biore: but nothing has worked as well as Neutrogena. I was always skeptical about trying this brand and it was the last one I decided to give a go. I am not fully sure why this was the case but I think mainly because many commercials and ads really hyped up this line and I did not think it would live up to the expectations. Let me just say, nothing has helped my acne and oily skin as much as this skin care brand. It is simple, yet so effective which is why I love it.       

Since high school I have tried many Neutrogena products but for about a year now, I have my trusted 3 that I use everyday: 

• Neutrogena Deep Clean Cream Cleanser
• Neutrogena Hydro Boost Gel-Cream
• Neutrogena Hydro Boost Hydrating Serum

I have always had oily to combination skin, so finding a moisturizer to hydrate my face but also make sure that my face doesn’t become overly oily was a challenge. For the longest time I was actually afraid to use moisturizers because I thought that if you have oily skin you should just strip your face from the oils and not add any moisture. I learned this is not the case, you just need to find something that works for your skin.        

The Neutrogena Hydro Boost serum and moisturizer have worked the best for me. They are a gel based formula which seems to work really well for my skin because it really allows it to breathe but keeps it hydrated at the same time. They also both have hyaluronic acid in them which also helps hold onto moisture and give your skin a plump look without making your face oily. Ever since I started using these products my skin has become more plump and overall has a smoother look to it. My skin is not perfect but I can confidently not wear any makeup! After washing my face in the mornings I apply the serum first, then the moisturizer and I am good to go! So easy, fast, and it works! I can go all day without having to wash my face which in the past was not possible. I had to wash it at least one time before taking a shower and I am finally able to go from morning to evening without having to worry. I did just use the moisturizer for a while but I found that using the serum then moisturizer combo works best. It really helps your skin lock in moisture and gives you a healthy glow! On days that I apply makeup, it allows for easy application and keeps my face hydrated, so amazing!          

The Deep Clean Cleanser is what I use at night while taking a shower. Guys, this cleanser makes your skin look and feel amazing! When you massage it into your face it has this cooling effect to it. It leaves my face feeling very fresh and healthy without drying it out. It also works well removing makeup and it does not clog my pores. I absolutely love this cleanser! It is creamy yet oil free and super gentle on my skin. Once I get out of the shower, I again apply the Hydro Boost Serum and moisturizer. It all soaks into my skin very well leaving my skin feeling clean. Just like that, I’m ready for bed!
