The One Drugstore Moisturizer Dermatologists Say To NEVER Use Because It Dries Out Your Skin & Causes Wrinkles

A reviewer told Total Beauty that, “I tried this acne moisturizer and it just ended up leaving these dry patches on my cheeks. I have sensitive combination skin and while it helped my acne it made my cheeks which are not oily super dry.

The Neutrogena Oil-Free Anti-Acne Moisturizer should only be used by people who really need it to calm their skin. Everyone else should avoid it because its oil-free formula deprives dry skin of the deep hydration it really needs. If you don’t keep your skin properly hydrated, you put it at risk of developing wrinkles and dark spots.

What To Use Instead

Instead of Neutrogena’s oil-free moisturizer, try the brand’s ultra hydrating Hydro Boost Gel Cream. It’s made with hyaluronic acid to restore moisture to the skin, repair the skin barrier and keep your complexion smooth and soft all day.
