Collagen Bank Moisturizer

Looks good 4.3 / 5

A credible fragrance-free moisturizer for dry to normal skin, with solid basic hydration and mild supporting actives, but not a high-powered collagen treatment.

Skin

How it’s judged

Scored for skin — based on what its ingredients contribute.

What it may help with

Hydration i3.8 / 4

Whether the ingredient helps increase the skin’s water content — humectants that attract water, ingredients that reduce water loss, or ones that make skin feel less dry.

From Butyrospermum Parkii Butter, Glycerin, Hydrolyzed Collagen, Petrolatum

Barrier support i3.5 / 4

Whether it supports the skin barrier — restoring lipids, reducing water loss, aiding barrier repair, or strengthening the skin’s protective function.

From Butyrospermum Parkii Butter, Petrolatum, Glycerin, Stearic Acid

Soothing i2.9 / 4

Whether it can calm the skin — linked to less redness, irritation, discomfort, or visible reactivity.

From Butyrospermum Parkii Butter, Bakuchiol, Petrolatum, Glycerin

Anti aging i2.8 / 4

Whether it can help visible signs of aging — fine lines, wrinkles, loss of firmness, or photoaging.

From Bakuchiol, Acetyl Dipeptide-31 Amide, Glycerin

Texture i2.5 / 4

Whether it can improve smoothness and surface texture — roughness, flaking, clogged pores, or unevenness. Exfoliating acids, retinoids, and smoothing moisturizers may score here.

From Bakuchiol, Butyrospermum Parkii Butter, Glycerin, Hydrolyzed Collagen

Things to watch

Acne aggravation i1.5 / 4

Whether it may worsen breakouts — clogging pores, feeling heavy on acne-prone skin, or triggering comedones in some users.

From Butyrospermum Parkii Butter

Sensitization i1.5 / 4

Risk of allergic contact dermatitis or immune-based reactions. Fragrance allergens, preservatives, botanicals, and some dyes may score here.

From Chlorphenesin

Irritation i1.0 / 4

Risk of short-term irritation — stinging, burning, dryness, redness, or discomfort. Common for strong actives, acids, retinoids, fragrances, and harsh surfactants.

From Steareth-10, Chlorphenesin

Systemic exposure i0.5 / 4

Whether it has meaningful potential to be absorbed into the body at levels that may matter biologically. Most cosmetic ingredients score low unless there is known concern or high exposure.

Eye irritation i0.5 / 4

Whether it may sting or irritate around the eyes. Relevant for sunscreens, fragrances, acids, surfactants, and volatile ingredients.

About this product

This is a face moisturizer from Neutrogena’s Collagen Bank line, verified against the manufacturer and major retailer listings. The formula is a fragrance-free, emollient-rich cream with glycerin, shea butter, petrolatum, bakuchiol, hydrolyzed collagen, and a peptide ingredient, so it looks better suited to dry or normal skin than to very oily skin. Evidence from retailer reviews suggests it absorbs reasonably well for many users, though some find it thick or greasy. The packaging text was partially OCR-misspelled as "Neutrogeia," but the product match is clear.

Good signs
  • Fragrance-free formula is a good sign for tolerance.
  • Combines humectants and richer emollients for stronger moisture support.
  • Includes bakuchiol plus peptide-style support, which fits a mild anti-aging moisturizer positioning.
  • User reviews commonly describe decent hydration and a plumper skin feel.
Watch-outs
  • Can feel thick, shiny, or greasy on some skin types, especially when layered under makeup or sunscreen.
  • The collagen-support claim is stronger than the evidence for a moisturizer of this type.
  • Bakuchiol and peptide benefits are likely modest here rather than treatment-level.
  • Reviews mention occasional tingling or brief irritation at first use.
Best for
  • normal to dry face skin
  • people wanting a fragrance-free basic moisturizer with anti-aging positioning
  • night use or cooler climates
  • normal
  • dry
  • combination
  • sensitive
  • mature
How to use it
  • Apply to clean skin as a leave-on face moisturizer.
  • Layering may be easier at night than under makeup for some users.
  • Patch testing is reasonable for reactive skin because early tingling has been reported.
  • Use the SPF version separately if sun protection is needed.
