Review: Neutrogena Illuminating Whip Moisturizer
What They Say: " Neutrogena® Illuminating Whip Moisturizer SPF 20 delivers fast-absorbing, lightweight hydration while it brightens your complexion and helps safeguard skin from UV damage.
This light-as-air whip moisturizer imparts fast-absorbing, non-greasy hydration, leaving skin soft and silky. Skin-brightening minerals and optical light reflectors add incredible luminosity, so skin looks bright and radiant, even without makeup. Built-in SPF 20 guards against daily sun damage."
Jen's Experience: Of all the types of beauty products I've gotten at the drugstore, I've probably had the most luck with facial moisturizers. Yet I'm less than impressed with this one. The product had a strong perfume-y scent, which makes me suspcious that it's responsible for my current outbreak. And as far as moisture goes, I didn't find that it provided all that much. There are plenty of other great choices from the drugstore (search on facial moisturizers for more ideas), but this one is mediocre at best.
Retail Price: $14.99 (Drugstore.com)
