Neutrogena Illuminating Whip Moisturizer SPF 20

Average member rating of 7.0
Average member rating
Rated a 7.5
Before you apply, prepare yourself. You're about to be seriously illuminated. The amount of mica in this daytime SPF 20 moisturizer is intense -- as in, glittery. I was nervous walking into the office, thinking co-workers would liken me to a disco ball. But after applying foundation and powder on top, it didn't seem so sparkly. It's definitely a dry-skin friendly product, since it adds the glow you crave while protecting your skin from the sun.

    love it for my combo complexion

    by sonyak (4 reviews)
    I have the usual T-zone of slightly oily skin but the rest of face can get very dry. Most moisturizers that work well for my dry areas are too heavy for the T-zone. Neutrogena's Illuminating Whip Moisturizer manages to quench my thirsty dry skin without turning my T-zone into an oil slick. I love it! June 1, 2008, 4:50 pm

    Irritates My Skin

    by samgirl22 (1 review)
    This product smells, too glittery, and irritates my skin. Not recommended for contact lens wearer. When I get this stuff too close to my eyes, they also irritate my eyes. I DO NOT have sensitive skin but this products make me look like I do! May 22, 2008, 12:41 pm

    Absorbs Well

    by dustyd4 (1 review)
    I like moisturizers with whipped texture - they absorb beter on my skin than lotions. I'd like this product better without the metallic pieces,though. May 26, 2008, 6:38 am

    Ugh

    by marlboro1220 (22 reviews)
    One of the worst moisturizers I've ever tried. Made the face look greasy and glittery and provided NO hydration whatsoever! If it had no SPF, it would be total garbage. February 29, 2008, 5:37 pm

    Really does make the skin glow

    by hiltonheiress (12 reviews)
    I love this stuff! I love the way it makes my skin glow. It is true to it's name & does illuminate. It looks great under make-up and also when wearing no make-up. Also nice that they've put in the SPF 20. It is a "whip" - very light. It smooths on easily. I'm hooked! February 27, 2008, 11:54 pm

    Neutrogena is a great brand name, but, I didn't find this to be a "must have" product. It is a great moisturizer, but, I felt like I had a film over my face.

September 30, 2008, 10:20 pm Neutrogena is a great brand name, but, I didn't find this to be a "must have" product. It is a great moisturizer, but, I felt like I had a film over my face. The scent was very light and refreshing. It does leave the skin so soft and silky, feels great. The price is a little on the high side. And I believe there are plenty of other products that perform a little better. September 30, 2008, 10:20 pm

    It adds a "glow"!

    by smurr425 (4 reviews)
    My skin is very dull and discolored. This product adds a "shimmer" to your skin tone and actually seems to blend the discoloration. July 20, 2008, 9:52 pm
