Review: Neutrogena Hydro Boost Clear Lotion

Neutrogena Review

What do I like about this?

• Easy to absorb: The product absorbs to my skin quite easily. When putting the lotion to my face using my palm, I feel that it almost the same as washing my face with plain water.
• Simple design: It is a clear bottle with simple wordings. I like the fact that I can see the content without opening the bottle itself.
• Gentle: I have finished using the first and only bottle I bought. I would say that it is gentle enough such that it does not cause any breakout to my skin.
• Price: I remember paying less than SGD20. I think this product fits into my tight budget.

What I don't like?

• Texture: While it is easy to absorb, I feel that I am buying a diluted product because it feels like clear scented water.
• Effectiveness: It moisturizes my skin to some extent, but it does not do much in calming the redness of my skin nor reducing the occurrences of pimples.
• Usage: I bought it originally as a lighter moisturizer but I think using this alone is not enough to provide enough moisture to my face.

Will I repurchase?

Maybe not. I think I will opt for other multipurpose product that works better for my skin, especially for calming the redness due to acne.

Review :Gentle shampoo for dandruff- DermaVeen Oatmeal Shampoo

DermaVeen Oatmeal Shampoo

DermaVeen Oatmeal Shampoo

If you have dandruff problems and feel tired of trying different medicated dandruff shampoos, I recommend giving this shampoo a try. 

What do I like about this shampoo?

• Smell : It smells like the key ingredient of the shampoo - oatmeal. When I squeeze it to my palm , I can smell the comforting mixture of oatmeal and milk. I have read about the benefits of oatmeals for skin and decide to try using shampoos that emphasize on natural ingredients. 
• Gentleness: I have been using this almost everyday for the past few weeks by now. While some shampoos are not recommended for daily usage, I would say that this shampoo is gentle enough to be used everyday.
• Feeling on my hair: To be honest, I was a bit skeptical about the effectiveness of this shampoo when I first use it. So, don't expect this to be a miracle that works on first usage. However, I enjoy the softness feelings it leaves on my hair after 3-4 morning of using the same shampoo.
• Natural Ingredients: It contains no Lanolin, Parabens, Dyes or Fragrances. It is also soap-free.

What I like less about this shampoo?

• Price: I bought this 250ml bottle from Guardians and paid around 15SGD. Compare to other shampoos on most drugstores, I would say that this is slightly more expensive for the amount of products in the bottle (250ml) considering the fact that I paid less for other hair products that has nearly .twice amount of content. I didn't manage to find a larger bottles when I purchased it last time. I also remember seeing a conditioner version for the same product but a bit more expensive. 

Would I buy it again?

Yes, I will buy this again but I will try to look for bigger bottle next time.
