When it comes to skincare, Jennifer Garner doesn’t just rely on luxury brands or red carpet glam squads — she also knows a good drugstore gem when she sees one. The actress revealed her go-to moisturizer, and it’s not only under $20, it’s also backed by more than 68,000 glowing Amazon reviews. Affordable, lightweight and effective, the Neutrogena Hydro Boost Water Gel is a budget-friendly moisturizer that actually delivers. And right now, it’s a whopping 35% off for Amazon Prime Big Deals Day.
Garner told InStyle that the moisturizer works “instantly” and that it’s “so satisfying, you instantly see the difference.” Powered by hyaluronic acid, a powerhouse ingredient that holds up to 1,000 times its weight in water, this daily moisturizer absorbs quickly into the skin, delivering long-lasting hydration without clogging pores. It also has a unique gel texture that feels cooling and soothing as you apply, making it perfect for all skin types — especially combination and oily skin. It layers beautifully under makeup, never feeling greasy or sticky and is gentle enough for sensitive skin too.
But don’t just take our (or Garner’s) word for it. The formula has earned cult status among Amazon shoppers. One customer shared their love for the product, saying it left their skin “super soft, without the feeling of greasiness.”
“I’m 64 so it’s nice to have a product that plumps skin, evens tone and makes wrinkles a little less visible without the greasiness or sticky feeling from some products!!!” they wrote. “Your skin feels and looks a little more youthful! It’s sort of like [someone] saying “You look great today!!” I use it every evening and then a little in the morning!! All over my face, and neck and I LOVE IT!!! Great and effective. Neutrogena — no wonder there!!!”
Say goodbye to dry, tight skin and hello to a softer, smoother and healthier-looking glow. Shop now and give your skincare routine the boost it’s been waiting for.
