So, I saw this thing online about becoming a Neutrogena model, and I thought, “Why not give it a shot?” I mean, who wouldn’t want to have their face plastered all over the place, right? Plus, free skincare products? Yes, please!

First thing I did was look up what Neutrogena is all about. Turns out, they’re pretty big on the whole “no animal testing” thing, which is cool. They also have this program called the “Neutrogena Collective” where regular folks like me can try out their products and share their experiences. That’s the angle I was going for.
I started using their Rapid Wrinkle Repair Retinol Cream ’cause I heard it’s one of their bestsellers. Gotta say, my skin did feel smoother after a few weeks. I also tried some of their serums, just to see if they really do all that they claim about improving skin tone and texture. They’re not bad, I gotta admit. But honestly, I was more excited about the possibility of being a model than the actual skincare results.
I began taking tons of selfies, trying to get that perfect “Neutrogena model” look. Good lighting, clear skin, the whole shebang. I even tried to copy some poses from their ads, just for fun. I posted these pics on my social media, tagging Neutrogena and using their hashtags, hoping to get noticed.
While I was doing all this, I learned a few things about being a model, or at least pretending to be one. You gotta take care of yourself – eat right, exercise, and all that jazz. It’s not just about slapping on some cream and calling it a day. But let’s be real, I wasn’t exactly hitting the gym every day. I did try to eat healthier, though. Baby steps, you know?
I also realized that this whole “model” thing is way more than just looking good. It’s about being confident and putting yourself out there. And let me tell you, putting your face out there for the whole internet to see is a bit nerve-wracking. I had my doubts, for sure. What if people made fun of me? What if I didn’t get picked?

But I kept at it, posting my pics, using their products, and just generally trying to be a part of the Neutrogena world. I even tried to answer people’s questions about the products in the comments, like some kind of amateur skincare guru.
In the end, did I become a big-time Neutrogena model? Nah. Did I get a ton of free products? Nope. But did I have fun trying? Absolutely! I learned a bit about skincare, a bit about modeling, and a whole lot about putting myself out there. It was a fun little experiment, and who knows, maybe one day I’ll actually get that call from Neutrogena. A guy can dream, right?
