What's the ph level in this?

The pH range of this product is 4.5-6.5. We hope you give it a try and stop back to let us know how it works for you!

What is the smell? it smells horrible. almost all products of hydro boost smell this way including the water gel lotion spf 30/50

This particular watergel is extremely light and there’s NO STRONG SMELL WHATSOEVER. I have been using it for several years now, and I am sensitive to smell. It goes on light, absorbed very quickly, and doesnt have any heavy residue. The light smell fades away in minutes. I don’t know what the other responders are talking about.

Does this come in an oversized container? Mine was less than a third full.

Maybe was something wrong because I bought two and both were pretty full. The container size it’s not oversized

Besides the spf, how is the city shield different than the "regular" gel cream?

Hydro Boost City Shield Water Gel with Broad Spectrum SPF 25 fights sun damage and dehydration with its lightweight, non-comedogenic formula. Created with UVA/UVB sunscreen and a complex of purified hyaluronic acid, it not only boosts your skin’s defense to daily environmental aggressors, but it also works to strengthen your skin’s moisture barrier.

Me gusta el aroma y la textura. Yo vivo en un lugar muy caliente así que prefiero almacenar mis productos en el refri. Y bueno esta padre que tiene protección solar pero me gustaría que por lo menos fuera de 30. Lo que sí definitivamente noto es la hidratación eh. Cuando termine esta probaré la de eucerin que básicamente lo mismo pero FPS de 30... Si tienes la piel oleosa (yo no) te va gustar o cómo si la quieres para que usar antes de aplicar la base está bien!

I absolutely love this moisturizer! The Neutrogena Hydro Boost with SPF 25 has become a staple in my morning routine. It feels super light on the skin, absorbs quickly, and doesn’t leave any greasy residue — perfect for my combination skin. The added SPF is a huge bonus. It gives me sun protection without the heaviness or white cast that some sunscreens leave behind. My skin stays hydrated all day, and I’ve noticed a smoother, more refreshed look overall. Plus, it's oil-free and non-comedogenic, so it hasn't caused any breakouts or clogged pores. The water-gel texture is amazing, especially during warmer months. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a lightweight, effective moisturizer with SPF!

Huele horrible y no cumple lo que promete. Me dejé llevar por las reseñas que dicen que es buena para pieles grasas y es falso.

I got this Neutrogena Hydro Boost Water Gel for my daughter, and she loves it! It’s super lightweight, absorbs quickly, and keeps her skin hydrated all day without feeling greasy. The added SPF 25 is a big bonus — perfect for daily sun protection without clogging pores. Her skin looks fresh, smooth, and healthy, and I love that it’s oil-free and gentle enough for sensitive skin. It’s become part of her everyday routine, and she won’t leave the house without it! Such a great moisturizer for anyone who wants hydration, protection, and a fresh glow in one product. 💙✨
