Shoppers call £9 Neutrogena Hydro Boost moisturiser a great alternative to Clinique Moisture Surge

If you're looking for an effective new face cream this winter that won't break the bank then read on, as shoppers think they've found a great value option that's as good as pricier alternatives.

For years Boots shoppers have been raving about Neutrogena Hydro Boost Water Gel Moisturiser – it usually costs £13.99 for a 50ml pot but it currently has a third off on the Boots website, taking it down to £9.33.

Designed to hydrate all skin types, and is even suitable for sensitive complexions, this Neutrogena face cream has recently been reformulated to pack in 20% more hyaluronic acid, plus amino acids and electrolytes for an even deeper hydration.

However its 'water-gel', oil-free formula means it's super lightweight on the skin and quickly absorbed – this texture makes it especially good for oily or combination skin types, which still need hydration.

Hydro Boost Moisturiser has received hundreds of five star reviews online since it launched, with many shoppers comparing it to another bestselling face cream: Clinique Moisture Surge 100H Auto-Replenishing Hydrator. This iconic Clinique product is also oil-free, high in hyaluronic acid and with a gel-cream consistency – but priced at £42 for a 50ml tub, is considerably more expensive.

Spotting the similarities between the two, one happy customer wrote on the Boots website: "Very hydrating, sinks quickly into the skin, almost a dupe for Clinique Moisture Surge."

Another person commented: "I started using this when it launched as a replacement for Clinique Moisture Surge and I haven’t looked back. It suits my skin perfectly and I won’t use another moisturiser."

A third review reads: "I have oily, breakout-prone skin and this moisturiser for the winter months is great! More of a cooling gel texture, not cream. Hasn’t broke me out once, feels so hydrating, not sticky at all – this is a great alternative for anyone that uses Clinique Moisture Surge."

If you're tempted by Neutrogena Hydro Boost, we recommend adding it to your Boots basket now, as we don't know how long it'll be at this reduced price for.
