Neutrogena's Oil-free, Anti-acne Moisturizer Review

Right now it's summer, and the least of my worries is how dry my skin gets during the winter. And mostly because I have found yet another product that actually works. Yes, it's Neutrogena's oil-free, anti-acne moisturizer. Usually I just use another product from Clean & Clear, but when my face gets really dry, I know exactly what to use.

This moisturizer comes in a little tube and though it may not look like much-let me remind you that a little goes a long way. Even when using, you only squeeze very little into your palm, and you're pretty much good.

How to use: First of all, you need to have a clean face. So use your regular cleanser and make sure your face is 100% dry. And I mean it. A downside about this moisturizer is that if you don't dry your face entirely and apply it, it can cause a bad burning- like feeling. So again, make sure your face is 100% dry. Squirt a very small amount into your hand. And with the other hand, apply the moisturizer all over your face. If you're going to wear makeup, make sure it dries or otherwise it will look a little weird.

Results: Your skin will be less dry (obviously). If it's your first time, it may not work completely, but keep using and it will improve your skin. Directions read, "Because excessive drying of the skin may occur, start with one application daily, then gradually increase to two or three times daily if needed or as directed by a doctor". But to be honest, I use it once a day everyday and it works perfectly. It really is up to how your skin behaves. And don't forget, it's anti-acne!

Ingredients: because it's nice to know

Phew, that was a lot! Now it comes down to... what am I giving this product? A four out of five! In addition to moisturizing your skin, I also like that it's acne-free. I would've given it a five out of five except that I really don't like the fact that it can irritate your skin if it's not fully dried. If you're in a hury, there would definitely be no time to put this on. But other than that, it's a great product and I definitely recommend it.
