Hi Everyone!
Today I’m reviewing Neutrogena Oil-Free Facial Moisture with
UVA/UVB sun protection SPF 15. Neutrogena is well-known brand for skin-friendly
and dermatologist tested products which brings back the life of the dull and
lifeless skin.
Price: Rs.299 for 115ml
Claims:
- Non-comedogenic
- Dermatologist tested
- Neutrogena Oil-Free Moisture SPF15 Clinically proven to combine long-lasting moisturisation with effective sun protection for softer, smoother, younger looking skin.
- All-Day moisturisation: lightweight, non-greasy lotion keeps skin moisturized for 12 hours. Sheer formula absorbs quickly into skin leaving it softer and smoother.
- Effective sun protection: UVA/UVB SPF15 sunscreens help prevent damage to the skin caused by everyday exposure to the sun’s rays.
- Extra-Gentle: this allergy-tested formula contains no fragrance, no dyes, no excess ingredients. Non-comedogenic, so it won’t clog pores that can cause skin to break out.
Dermatologist tested formula is:
- Allergy-testes
- Fragrance-free
- Alcohol-free
Directions:
Use 1 pump and apply all over face and neck. Use daily,
alone or under makeup.
Ingredients:
My Take on Neutrogena Oil-Free Moisture SPF15:
Neutrogena Oil-Free Moisture SPF15 comes in white bottle
with pump top cap. The pump cap is very hygienic and easy for using. The oil-free
moisture is pure white in color with some minimal fragrance. The fragrance is
not over-powering and is bit of artificial while using it on. Also the
fragrance doesn’t linger around after application. The oil-free moisture has creamy and soft texture and not-so thick in consistency.
I used Neutrogena Oil-Free Moisture every day after my
cleanser and toner routine. The white soft liquid takes few minutes to blend. I
do one pump initially and that is enough for face and neck completely. If you
need more, then you can do pumps accordingly. I hope one pump would do well. Initially
post application it feels the moisture doesn’t blend well into my skin. After 10-15
minutes the moisture gets blend well and moisturizes skin from deep. The moisture
doesn’t feel heavy and greasy on my skin. But I do feel bit oily over my T-zone
area. Later I set it with some loose powder/compact. The moisturizing effect
stays about 8-7 hours. Skin becomes oily a bit but not greasy. Moisturizer adds
some volume of shine to skin. Still the sheer
effect does stay.
I used Neutrogena Oil-Free Moisture and went for a
shopping in heavy skin. It does protect my skin from harmful rays of sun. Also I
could see my skin turns bit oily very soon. The moisturizing effect stays on my
skin for about 7-8 hours. I do have combinational skin and turns sensitive eventually.
I did not experience any break outs or allergy. It doesn’t give a matte effect
on skin.
Neutrogena
Oil-Free Moisture is a complete moisturizer with sun protection. This would be
in great help for dry/very skin types. Can suits skin at summer and protect our
skin from sun rays. Women at college and job will find it great for regular use
as it is a combinational product and doesn’t give any break outs or allergy.
Pros of Neutrogena Oil-Free Moisture SPF15:
- Dermatologist tested
- Won’t clog pores, alcohol free and allergy-free
- Do have mild fragrance and it doesn’t linger around any longer post application
- One pump is fairly enough for face and neck
- Non-greasy and lightweight
- Effective sun protection
- Keeps skin moisturized around 7-8 hours but loose-powder/compact definitely needed post application
- Doesn’t break out the skin
Cons of Neutrogena Oil-Free Moisture SPF15:
- Skin becomes slightly oily over T-zone area
- Doesn’t provide matte effect
- Oily skin people may find it oilier after the use
Overall Verdict:
Neutrogena Oil-Free Moisture SPF15 is a combo with moisturizer
and sunscreens. This would be in great help for women at work and college. Or your
skin needs extra moisturizer with sunscreens then it’s great too. Moisturizer doesn’t
provide any matte effect and adds shine to skin. Staying power is too good and
at the end of the day you might feel your skin is bit oily but in good
moisturized state.

DeleteFantastic products have already taste of it great result as a professional i always advise to use products that have pure moisturizer material.
ReplyDeleteI am a dermatologist myself who still gets occasional products and I would never recommend Neutrogena. I think the Citrus Clear brand is fantastic. It is a new brand, that has the cutting edge acne technology. I have not ever seen formulas like this in my career and have been recommending Citrus Clear to all my pacients - and we all love the results!
ReplyDeleteWhat most people don't realize is that the citrus formulas are not drying AND help with inflammatory acne (red painful bumps or pus bumps). There is nothing similar to this product on the market. The closest competitor is Panoxyl which makes (4/5/8/10 % benzoyl peroxide products all of which are too drying).
Thank you so much for stopping by! <3 xx
DeleteI bought this moisturiser, eveything is good but it little sting my eyes when i apply it. Do anybody face the same problem?
