Review: Neutrogena Oil Free Moisturiser

I am quite new when it comes to using moisturizers and this Neutrogena Oil-free moisturizer for combination skin is my first. I wsn't really a fan of Neutrogena products and simply got this with Neutrogena's cleanser months ago because my sis recommended them. This was way-y-y before I've discovered Neogence Ace Revitalizing and Renewing Series and the TamagoHada cleanser. After I've used up the cleanser, I chucked this inside my wardrobe forgotten until recently.


 
Neutrogena's Oil-Free Moisturizer

Decided to use it when I noticed my skin were getting really dry and even peeling a bit since I switched to using HadaLabo's TamagoHada cleanser. Worst, from the lack of moisturizing, I'm starting to get loads of breakouts. So I resorted to include this moisturizing routine together with my other daily regimen.

 texture of this lotion is really close to that of Neogence ACE Moisturizer, only slightly 'heavier'

All my problems were solved just days after using this moisturizer. It gives me just the right amount of moisturizing affect I needed!!

While I do agree on the hydrating the skin "without leaving it oily or shiny" part, it didn't do much in keeping my T-zone the "matte finish all day". Maybe just 2-3 hours? After that, I've got to blot some of the oil off my skin. Still, I really do like this moisturizer. It's not greasy and absorbs pretty well after a lil' bit of massaging and patting. And I really do like how the bottle comes with a pump, means no having to dig the lotion up with your nails(eeek!!).

Repurchase? Definitely, but I want to experiment on other brand moisturizers.  Anyway, I would totally recommend those who're looking for a moisturizer for combination  skin and suitable to be used under makeups. This is one affordable moisturizer that totally works v(^v^v)

My rating: 4.5

hauls from Penang~

Went shopping yesterday with parents at 1st Avenue-Perangin Mall-Komtar. It's Penang's version of Bukit Bintang where you can find several shopping complexes located close together within walking distance except that these malls in Penang are linked together by bridges.

Walked the entire day my legs hurt so much when I got back yesterday... (,≥A≤,)

There isn't as much boutiques here in Penang compared to KL so there weren't much choices. I'm too fussy... Ended up only found one casual dress I like~♥



Nice or not? LOL. Vain me.

Oh, and I got this recently too from Vince&Co. They're so cute.



Was reading through Popteen the other day and found these relly awesome autumn fukubukuro~! ZOMG. I'm loving Ank Rouge, Miel and Min Plume's lucky bag!!

All the outfits are very cute~ Wish I can have them all!!(((o(≥v≤)o))





Seen anything you like? ,(^v^,)

Anyway, I'm gonna have a 'Pre-loved items Sale" coming up on my next post. Want to get rid of clothes I haven't and probably wouldn't wear anymore:S Till then~!
