Is *this* the serum that’s set to leave your skin smooth and even at last?
The product
Let’s be real here, we’ve all fallen victim to purchasing an item of skin care that we didn’t really need, whether it be a serum that promises to deliver the world or a ‘magic’ moisturiser, it's a universal truth to us all. But you know who doesn’t let us down? Neutrogena. This actually affordable skin care brand is genuinely here to help our skin (phew; because it’s in dire need).
So, when Neutrogena launched their latest Hydro Boost Niacinamide Serum it became very clear: they were onto a winner. Packed with skin-loving ingredients like hyaluronic acid and niacinamide, this seriously smoothing serum is set on brightening, refining and strengthening your complexion. All with an added hit of hydration!
Let’s have a look at what our Review Crew® members had to say about the power-packed serum…
The panel
BEAUTYcrew sent the Neutrogena Hydro Boost Niacinamide Serum to a panel of women aged 20-49 suffering from oily, uneven skin.
The lowdown
How easily it absorbs: Texture is a huge player in the serum game. If it’s too thick it sits uncomfortably atop your skin, not really sinking in. Thankfully our Review Crew® members found that this serum found the middle ground between luxurious and lightweight, and overall were very happy with the consistency. Because of this great consistency, our members found that this serum absorbed well into their skin, without leaving behind any heavy, greasy feelings.
The skin-smoothing, texture-toning effects: To truly gauge the effects of this serum (and its promises) Review Crew® members that suffered from oil-prone, uneven texture and enlarged pores were recruited. And boy were the results good. Our Review Crew® members saw a noticeable difference in their pores and the texture of their skin. They raved about how smooth their skin looked and felt from using this serum.
Helpful hard-hitting hydration: In the skin care world, there’s no such thing as too much moisture (well maybe there is, but it’s a very high bar). So having hard-hitting hyaluronic acid (one of our fave hydrators) included in this serum meant that our Review Crew® members were able to feel the major difference in hydration left behind by this serum. And who doesn’t love that?
