Have any of you observant ladies seen this range at the pharmacies recently? I noticed them about a month ago – the red packaging is very distinctive and reminded me of another brand, also targeted at anti-aging 😉
This is the latest range in the Neutrogena line up – Neutrogena Ageless. It is an anti-wrinkle and firming range of skincare so you know what that means. If you have other problems like oily skin or acne prone skin then anti-aging would likely be the least of your concerns. But if you are starting to show signs of aging (whatever your age) like fine lines, sagging or dull skin, then this is targeted at you.
This range claims to fight aging layer by layer, from inside out. It targets the rebuilding and repair of skin elasticity with dill and blackberry extract, provides hydration with Southernwood extract and smooths and lifts the top layer of the skin with a vitamin B3.
There is a full range of products but the star product is the Neutrogena Ageless Anti-Wrinkle & Firming Cream. It feels quite lovely and lux. The texture is soft and it glides on the skin quite comfortably. There is a fragrance which isn’t unpleasant.
As with all anti-aging products, my personal philosophy is that you really don’t need an anti-aging skincare routine under 30 unless you are already exhibiting signs of aging, which manifests quite obviously in fine lines showing up on the skin. Of course if you subscribe to the “prevention is better than cure” school of thought then it should start a little earlier 🙂
Have you spotted this in the pharmacies or perhaps you have already given them a go? Do you like it? I haven’t tried it but I’ve got a friend testing out some products in the range so I’ll bring you their thoughts in time to come.

October 22, 2011 at 8:50 amI don’t really like drugstore skin care as most of them have parfum and mineral oil.. =(

October 23, 2011 at 4:34 pmActually I think most skincare have elements of parfum 🙂 But perhaps its just in the intensity of ingredients used 🙂 I’ve actually had very good experience with some pharmacy brands 😉

October 22, 2011 at 11:19 amI’ve seen this range and it looks interesting. But I don’t usually like Neutrogena products as they mostly have rather strong scents.
ParisB says
October 23, 2011 at 4:36 pmYes, the Hydro range was I heard quite good too but the scent was just too strong. I’ll wait and see what my friend has to say about it 🙂

October 22, 2011 at 12:57 pmI’ve seen it in Watsons and Cosmed in Taiwan, though I haven’t tried it yet. Just not intrigued enough.
ParisB says
October 23, 2011 at 4:38 pmhehe… yeah its not terribly exciting unless one’s in the market for something anti-aging perhaps 🙂

October 22, 2011 at 1:26 pmI love Neutrogena sunscreens – but I haven’t seen this line in Europe. Asia only?
ParisB says
October 23, 2011 at 4:39 pmHmm I”m not sure Jamilla. We just got it here and I don’t think it will be Asia only. Then again we do get different Neutrogena products here too I think.

October 22, 2011 at 1:29 pmThis really reminds me of the Olay professional moisturizers. Sounds really innovative!
ParisB says

October 23, 2011 at 3:48 amI think I saw them in Watsons the other day when I went to get a new toner for myself ^^ Ended up buying Neutrogena’s hydrating range’s water lotion and am loving it at the moment. Will probably get the essence one soon ~
ParisB says
October 23, 2011 at 4:41 pmI’ve heard that the hydrating range is quite good! 😀
Saphy says
October 23, 2011 at 6:56 pmThe lotion is :D! very hydrating ^^

October 24, 2011 at 10:13 pmi am a firm believer of doing the anti aging routine before you hit 30, i started mine around 23 or so, environment/ stress nowadays just make people age faster than they should!
in TW the serum is the highly raved one though, or at least that’s what the bloggers there reported 🙂
ParisB says
October 25, 2011 at 2:19 pmOh so the serum is the popular one? Good to know for future reference 🙂 Good to know you’ve started your anti aging regime already. I still don’t have a strict anti aging regime. I think I have to thank genetics instead 😉
