A great basic moisturiser for normal to dry skin. My skin is usually tight feeling and craves a cream after I cleanse (and I used a gentle cream cleanser). With the seasons just having changed my skin got so flaky and dry and having tried a variety of creams by Clinique, Paula's choice and Olay the best combination I found that rescued my skin, got rid of the dryness and a few dehydration lines with it, was this cream combined with Olay's regenerist serum. I only gave this 4 stars though because it does lack antioxidants, skin identical ingredients etc that you need to keep skin healthy (which I why I combine it with somethinig that is packed full of that stuff), but if moisture is what you need then this is great. It also earnt a star because I find the dark/red ishness under my eys goes down when I use this, so I guess as per the label, it is good for senstive skin.

Quite moisturizing & it didn't make my skin break out but it can be left a little little bit oily after applying it. Sometimes, it makes my eyes sting but it's not a big deal as it goes away within a minute.

I broke out with a bunch of pimples on my nose and under my nose.. Im still dried out.. I live in AZ so I need all the moisture I can get.. I tried this because I have combination skin and sensitive to a lot of products.. Im oily by my nose and dry by my cheeks and chin.. Im still dry my cheeks and chin and now Im pimply on my nose and around my nose.. It took only 3-4 days for this to happen..
The product went on nice.. Thats was the only thing I liked about it.
I guess Ill just go back to the night cream I was using before..

This is horrible. This irritated my skin worse than Neutrogena's regular 'oil-free with spft 15' moisturiser did. My eyes actually watered when I first put this on, and I had to wash my face again to make it stop. I put it away for a while and tried it again when my skin wasn't being as temperamental (I have sensitive, combo/dehydrated, acne prone skin and I use Retin-A) and I really wish I hadn't. It hurt like hell, made my face red, oily and broke me out in loads of tiny bumps all over my nose and right under my eyes. There went my 'not acting so temperamental' skin. The damage took a week or so to clear up. Never again.

I know I have really whacky skin and that a lot of good products don't work for me but are perfectly good for people with nicer skin, but I would not recommend this to anyone, no matter their skin type. It is oily (I don't care what the package claims), it does not moisturise at all, it is hard to absorb and it's one of the most irritating products I have ever put on my face (and, as I said before, I use Retin-A). Good for sensitive skin? HA.

This is my second time trying this product. It does feel really good- hydrating but not heavy....but something in here gives me bumps.. Now in all fairness I have the weirdest most reactive skin on earth, so I do think this would be great for someone with normal skin that needs a good, light moisturizer...Guess I'm sticking with Youthtopia...

I have extremely sensitive skin and it's near impossible for me to find a face product that works. For the longest time I have been using Proactiv Oil Free lotion, which is great, but started to have problems finding it. So, I decided to try out Neutrogena's Oil Free Moisture (for sensitive skin) and am SO glad I did! It's very comparable to the Proactive lotion and, to make it better, is a fraction of the price ($28 for 1.7 oz v. $12 for 4 oz)! I have dry skin, as well, and unlike some of the reviews on here, it does an adequate job of keeping the dry away. Give it a shot!

I have been using this moisturizer for about 1 1/2 months now and I really have liked it. I only use it as my day moisturizer since I have something else with retinol I use at night. But as a light weight day moisturizer this is great. It isn't greasy or oily which is nice since I have acne-prone oily skin. It doesnt have a scent and isnt perfumy so it doesnt burn my sensitive skin. Overall really good moisturizer and at like $5 or so you cant beat the price.

I really like this moisturizer. I have extremely sensitive and dry skin with rosacea. I have eczema on my hands and body and my face has been flaking due to the winter air and spot treating for inflammatory acne. My skin is so sensitive like many girls on here, that I will get clogged pores after one use of a product that doesn't work for me. This has happened from various foundations and from lotions and sunscreens, among them, Cetaphil, Olay, Eucerin, Boots and La Roche Posay. Needless to say, I've been downright afraid to try new products, especially face lotions! I didn't want to break out or cause a rash that would take a day or two to go away. Well I'm happy to say that this product works great! It is light but also moisturizing. Unlike other light lotions I've tried, this one actually got rid of my flakiness and left my skin hydrated that I didn't even need to apply it the next day and the flakes were still gone! Amazing. It also did not cause any redness or stinging or burning which I will feel within a few minutes of using a product that is not good for my sensitive skin. My skin stayed calm and I didn't feel anything. Also no clogged pores or breakouts. I will of course update this review if I do end up breaking out from this product, but I generally see a breakout the next day or two after using a clogging product and my skin still looks great right now. I'm very happy to have found this product and would recommend it if you have very dry and sensitive skin and/or mild rosacea.
EDIT 3/30:
I'm still using this moisturizer a month later with no problems whatsoever. It does not cause me to breakout....when I follow the directions. On the back it says to use 1 pump for the entire face. A few days after I first tried this, I applied more than 1 pump to my face and I broke out. This lotion requires a thin layer, not for your skin to be soaked in it. If 1 pump doesnt cover your whole face, try just dotting it and patting it in on your driest areas and leave the normal areas alone. Since I've been following the directions, my skin has been luminous, breakout free, smooth, very soft and supple. I've had no problems with flakiness, oiliness, breakouts, dryness, redness, irritation, clogged pores or anything. This is definitely an HG for me!

THIS IS THE BEST MOISTURIZER EVER !!
I am one of those people who have a very annoying skin. If I moisturize, it get break outs and if i dont, my skin gets dry, ugly and flaky. I have tried everything, from cetaphil, marcelle to herbal ones. But i hated all of them. They were too greasy, made my skin look dark and made me look horrible if worn under make up.
I got this moisturizer on sale for 13.99CAD and this is my best purchase ever. If you have a super sensitive skin like me, this is the perfect moisturizer for you !! I'm so glad i bought it. I started noticing the difference within two days. Its been almost two weeks now and my skin had never looked so awesome in the last 4 years since i got acne. It stung a little in the beginning but it works really well. I apply it under my eyes too and i can literally see the lines under my eyes vanishing. They weren't cuz of age, but cuz of dryness. I even told my friend to buy it. She has a really sensitive skin with acne and she can feel the difference within a week. And thus, my search for a perfect moisturizer ends here :)
Trust me, I mean everything i said !!

Don't wait.. Buy it.. You will fall in love with your skin !!

Love this stuff! This was my go to summer moisturizer last year, as it was very light feeling and didn't feel greasy at all. Pretty sure I'll buy this again when the weather starts to get warmer ^^
