If central heating and harsh weather is playing havoc with your skin, then give it a boost with Neutrogena’s Hydro Boost range. To revamp my complexion, I have swapped out my usual products and replaced them with this trio – which in my opinion offer the perfect formulas to see you through the winter months, so that skin looks fresh and rejuvenated all year round.
Consisting of a water-gel moisturiser, serum and mask, the trio combats dry and flaky skin and are packed with hyaluronic acid, a moisture-binding ingredient found naturally in the skin, that retains water to help keep it supple.
First, kickstart your morning regime with the Hydro Boost Supercharged Booster Serum, £14.99. This has micro-capsules containing vitamin E, which are dispersed as you pump the formula out. Skin is left intensely rehydrated and smoothed and the serum goes on evenly and easily. It gives a lift to the complexion, so that tiredness and dullness are eradicated. After using, skin looks visibly more illuminated and radiant.
Follow up with the Hydro Boost Water Gel Moisturiser, £12.99. The lightweight formula sinks into the skin like a dream and feels refreshing, with no sticky residue. It also releases hydration through the day, due to an advanced gel matrix system, so skin looks glowing and supple no matter how late you stay out.
For those wanting more of an intense ‘lift’, then go factor in 15 minutes with a Hydrogel Recovery Mask, £3.50, once a week. It is based on the new generation of gel masks, developed in Korea (in fact it was designed there). Made from a 100% Hydrogel hydrating formula, enriched with hyaluronic acid, the innovative texture is aimed to feel like a ‘second skin’ for comfort and super-effectiveness. It molds to the skin and gives an instant shot of moisture.
In fact, one of the masks holds the equivalent of a 30ml bottle of concentrated hydrating serum, drenching the skin with moisture and goodness. Say hello to the glow.
