How do you decide whether to purchase Neutrogena Hydro Boost Water Gel or the Gel-Cream? They look so similar in appearance and packaging that it can be confusing on which to buy. Here is a comparison video between the two.

It’s super interesting to me how the fragrance tide has changed. For years, everything had it & those of us who have issues wished we had more ff options. Then it became bad. Now, I’ve almost seen it swing back from being demonized to some people on the Internet get hostile to those of us who want to avoid it. Personally, I don’t care what anyone else does. I can’t use any fragrance on my face because I have rosacea and it makes it worse, so I make a choice to avoid it. All I want is options for me AND for the people who like fragrance. I think Elf, Neutrogena, & Purito are companies who are doing a really good job of this giving 2 versions. Wish that were normalized.

The “regular” hydro boost feels so nice like you said and it works beautifully under makeup-it’s almost like a primer. They also make a version called “city shield” that has spf. It feels a lot like the non spf -maybe not quite as wonderful feeling but that’s to be expected. Why does spf have to not be something I love applying LOL.

ive tried both. im usually sensitive to fragrance and cant use most moisturizers, but the water gel didn't cause any redness or burning, its honestly the best moisturizer i've used on my oily/dry face. as for the cream-gel, it felt very heavy and my face would produce so much oil. even using a small portion of the product left my face either super dry or super oily. definitely sticking to the water gel.

When using the gel cream, keep your skin a little bit wet, and remember to use lotion after putting on the gel cream. If we use the the gel cream with a dry face, the hyaluronic acid may absorb water that is already in our skin and left our face dry.

The fragrance issue is very real: I am 44 years old and skincare with fragrance did not affect me in my 20s or 30s, but at age 40……it sure did start affecting me and I also gained rosacea like most do. That’s when I went fragrance free and I have been VERY pleased and satisfied. Most likely it “may” affect you later in life/age. Fragrance free just plays nice 🤷🏻‍♀️and I love Neutrogena, Cerave, Eucerin, Curel, Hada Labo, Ambi, ZapZyt, Cetaphil, Vaseline, and CVS & Walgreens products.

I've taken care of my skin all my life and hardly have any wrinkles. Pretty good for being over 60. I try to remember the sunscreen. I use the Neutrogena facial spray sunscreen. I'll probably go back to a mineral one which I heard was better for your skin. Is there a good sunscreen that you can recommend for my oily combo skin?

I mean nothing bad is happening to my skin it just the dye that worries me because I am not sure if there is going to be any side effects after using this products for the next few years… May I ask what is your take on this?

I went with the hydrogel Bc I was looking for a replacement for the Sunday Riley tidal cream which is ridiculously expensive but i go huk Into it from a sample. I purchased 2 during a sale. However after I open the second full-size it was moldy and so I wanted to exchange it but to my surprise i was out of stock everywhere, I was able to get a full refund even after it being passed the return date. Not sure if this neutrogena cream is the same but it’s water base and it also has hyaluronic acid.

Turns out it’s work related associated with medical gloves at work that I have to wear for 10 hrs a day. I wear glove liners now and it helps a lot but a lot of the medications I use have Dimethicone in them.. those are the barrier creams. I’ve never had a problem with them. I been using the Neutrogena Hydro boost gel since it came out .. my skin is so dry and when I put it on, it’s like Omg… relief! Like diving into a cool pool .. I love it so much. I like the scent and it doesn’t bother my skin but I got the extra dry last time because My skin is extra dry. But either way they never have bothered my skin or my fingers when I put it on.

Hmm another topic to think about could perhaps be the leeching of the silicones and synthetic beeswax into the environment? Silicone is said to not break down so easily, so it's possible they pollute the environment for a long time. I really liked the Water Gel and use it as my daily moisturiser but I've learned a bit more about sustainability and being environmentally friendly, and I'd like to make the switch to a different brand (not to mention Neutrogena is owned by Johnson and Johnson who have a slew of malpractice and unethical behaviour). I still have a halfway full tub though lol. I gotta finish that. I was already thinking of changing moisturisers because the smell is so chemical-ly and strong, but I couldn't find one that would evaporate/not leave a sticky residue. Still on the hunt for a new moisturiser. It's going to be difficult to find a brand that feels as nice as the Water Gel ;-;

@sarahferguson0 3 жыл бұрын

I absolutely love most Neutrogena products and their face sunscreens are the only ones that don't break me out. I try to avoid fragrance because it doesn't really effect my skin per se but sometimes fragrance will give me a headache. My skin is super sensitive so I do try and avoid them. I have a sample size of the Hydro Boost Water Gel that I haven't tried yet. If I like it overall I'll probably try to find the fragrance free one if I buy the full size.

I haven’t tried the gel cream version of this but I do have the Neutrogena hydro boost sunscreen (SPF 50) and the fragrance on that one is strong. I’m not even sensitive to fragrance but I personally think it’s too strong and would prefer it to be lighter. If the fragrance in the gel cream version of the moisturizer is anything like what’s found in the sunscreen, I can definitely see how that might be a turn off for some people.

I'm prone to all kinds of ugly side effects from many products out there, but this one works really well for me, so I've been staying in their line of products. Others have made my skin blister badly, or gave me hives. I have a few permanent scars to prove it, so I'm always reticent to try new things. Keeps me humble, I suppose!

I’ve been considering getting this gel for a while now, and I was reaaally close to picking up the fragrance-free, dye-free one thinking those were the only differences between the two, until you talked about the beeswax and the propolis! I had a patch test done this past year and out of 96 allergens, the ONLY thing I reacted strongly to was propolis! My doctor told me to avoid any product with beeswax in it and my silly self didn’t realise it could be sneaked into a gel moisturiser. I gave a cursory glance to the ingredients list and didn’t notice the beeswax, so were it not for your video and you specifically calling out the propolis, I would’ve spent money to give myself some continuous allergic reactions. 🤦🏽‍♀️ THANK YOU! Super informative and succinct breakdown.

Hi, Doc. I hope you are doing well. I would like to use both the water gel and water cream for some additional moisture, by starting with the water gel and following with the water cream. Would you recommend for or against this?

For a bit of context, I currently use the water gel only right now and my skin tends to feel a bit dry afterwards

Also with Fragrance they can hide chemicals and don’t have to say what’s in it. It can just say Fragrance

Hello Dr Sugai , I got the water gel one and make my face feel so painful for few minutes but not very red. Do u think this should consider is irritated? Should I stop using it? PS I’m dry skin

M very happy to this cream because Dr advised me this just for hydrating skin that becomes so dull due to use of creams for hyprpigmentation but this cream didn't only hydrated my skin but also removed my 11year old pigmentation which no one dermatologist can do...

I’m a filipina and I love hydroboost water gel. It really depends who’s using it. 😊

How many days did it last you until you emptied the container? I'm switching my sunscreen.

👍 Thanks Dr. Sugai for embracing fragrance-free skincare products. I am also allergic to fragrance. Imagine if every facial product you put on has fragrance, say...cleanser, toner, serum, moisturizer, sunscreen...a minimum of 5 products gives you 5 different fragrances which can be overwhelming after a regular daytime skincare routine. Don't forget that the nighttime skincare routine products will have fragrances as well. I am glad manufacturers are aware of fragrance allergy, and provide consumers an option of fragrance-free products.

Both of them are good for oily/combination skin?

I’ve been using the Olay Reginerist retinol 24 hour. Can I use this Neutrogena hydro boost along with it? I’m also wondering if there is an OTC product to help lighten dark under eye circles. Thank you!

LOVE the water gel. Long standing favourite of mine. CANNOT stand the fragrance-free gel cream version, feels incredibly heavy and gives me painful acne all over my face but especially on my forehead. Will be sticking to the water gel.

you said the gel cream felt heavy and i was wondering do you have an oily skin type?
