NOTE A - 

The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of January 31, 1994, the related
statements of income and retained earnings and statements of cash flows for the
three months ended January 31, 1994 and 1993 have been prepared by Neutrogena
Corporation (the "Company") without audit.  In the opinion of management, all
adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) have been made which
are necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations 
and cash flows of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries at January 31,
l994 and for the three month period then ended. 

Although the Company believes that the disclosure in the condensed consolidated
financial statements is adequate for a fair presentation thereof, certain
information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been
condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission.  The October 31, 1993 audited statements were included in
the Company's annual report on Form 10-K under the Securities Exchange Act of
1934 for the year ended October 31, 1993.  These condensed consolidated
financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial
statement and notes thereto contained in that annual report.

The results of operations for the period ended January 31, 1994 are not
necessarily indicative of the results for the full year.

NOTE D -

The Company adopted, effective November 1, 1992, Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 109 "Accounting for Income Taxes," issued in
February 1992.  Under the asset and liability method of SFAS No. 109, deferred
tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences
attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of
existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases.  Deferred tax
assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to
taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to
be recovered or settled.  Under SFAS No. 109, the effect on deferred tax assets
and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period
that includes the enactment date.

The adoption of SFAS No. 109 increased net income for the three months ended
January 31, 1993 by $1,069 or $.04 per share.

NOTE E -

On September 21, 1993, the Board of Directors authorized the Company to purchase
up to 1,000,000 shares of its Common Stock from time to time in the open market
and in privately negotiated transactions.  As of January 31, 1994, the Company
has not purchased any shares under this authorization.

NOTE F -

Included in other assets are intangibles consisting of trademarks, patents and
a distributor buy-out at cost less accumulated amortization.  Costs are 
amortized over the estimated useful lives of the related assets which range 
from 5-40 years.  Other assets also includes a venture capital minority interest
investment in Cellegy Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a company specializing in 
developing dermatologic products, which the Company has recorded under the cost
method of accounting for long-term investments.

                    INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS' REVIEW REPORT


The Board of Directors
Neutrogena Corporation


We have reviewed the condensed consolidated balance sheet of Neutrogena
Corporation as of January 31, 1994, and the related condensed consolidated
statements of income and cash flows for the three month period ended January 31,
1994 in accordance with Statements on Standards for Accounting and Review
Services issued by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants.  All
information included in these condensed consolidated financial statements is the
representation of management of Neutrogena Corporation.

A review consists principally of inquiries of Company personnel and analytical
procedures applied to financial data.  It is substantially less in scope than an
audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, the objective of
which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken
as a whole.  Accordingly, we do not express such opinion.

Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should
be made to the condensed financial statements referred to above for them to be
in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

We have previously audited, in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards, the consolidated balance sheet of Neutrogena Corporation as of 
October 31, 1993, and the related consolidated statements of income and cash 
flows for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated
November 30, 1993, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated 
financial statements.  In our opinion, the information set forth in the 
accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of October 31, 1993, is
fairly presented, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated
balance sheet from which it has been derived.

                     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
               OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
                         
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

THREE MONTHS ENDED JANUARY 31, 1994 COMPARED WITH THREE MONTHS ENDED 
JANUARY 31, 1993

Net sales for the fiscal quarter ended January 31, 1994 totaled $60.7 million 
for a decrease of $9.5 million or 13.6%.  New product sales reached $5.4 
million.  A product is defined as new until it has a full fiscal year of 
sales.  During the first quarter in the United States the Company launched 
Heat Safe, a product for heat-damaged hair.  Volume on existing products
declined $14.2 million and a strengthening U.S. dollar held back reported sales
by $.7 million. 

United States division sales were $46.7 million compared to
$56.4 million during 1993.  The majority of the U.S. sales decline is
attributable to the lack of a strong sell-in of the first quarter Shower Care
promotion.  It is also believed that the first quarter sales were impacted 
by unusually severe winter in the midwest and eastern United States which
impacted delivery schedules to the retail trade, and to a limited extent by
the earthquake in Southern California. 

International division (which includes U.S. based export) sales were $14.0
million compared to $13.8 million in 1993.  New product sales contributed $1.0
million.  International division sales represented 23% of total Company sales
during the quarter.  Sales in Europe were below expectations as the Company
continued through the start-up period relating to both establishing its own 
sales force in France effective November 1, 1993 and a new distributor in 
Spain and Portugal.

Gross profit margin for the quarter improved to 74.7% from 74.4% during 1993. 
The margin improvement was primarily due to lower promotional sales, product mix
shifts and greater manufacturing efficiency in the United States.  Marketing and
selling expense was 59% of sales, the same as during the first quarter 1993.

Income before income taxes reached $7.4 million for an increase of 5%.  Income
before income taxes increased as cost controls limited expenditures on selling,
marketing, and general and administrative expenses for the quarter.  The income
before income tax margin grew to 12.3% of sales from 10.1% during the first
quarter of 1993.

The effective tax rate increased to 36.5% from 36.0% during the first quarter of
1993.  This increase reflects the effect of the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation
Act of 1993, changes in tax exempt interest earned on the Company's portfolio,
partially offset by the effect of the Company's manufacturing facility located
in a tax-free zone in France.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

THREE MONTHS ENDED JANUARY 31, 1994 COMPARED WITH THREE MONTHS ENDED 
JANUARY 31, 1993 (CONTINUED)

Net income for the quarter decreased to $4.7 million from $5.6 million in 1993. 
Net income during 1993 benefited by $1.1 million from the cumulative effect on
prior years of the change in accounting for income taxes Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 109 "Accounting for Income Taxes," which was
implemented November 1, 1992.  The impact of this accounting change was $.04 per
share during the first quarter of 1993.  Excluding this accounting change, net
income was up 4%.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

For the three months ended January 31, 1994, cash and temporary cash investments
increased by $105 thousand.  During the first quarter the Company paid the 
annual cash dividend of $6.9 million, repaid short term borrowing of $5.3
million, and incurred capital expenditures of $2.7 million.  The Company
experienced strong cash flow from operating activities as a result of
collections from the fourth quarter 1993 sales.

Shareholder's equity decreased by $1.7 million or 1% principally because of the
payment of the annual cash dividend.

The Company has no long term-term debt.  The Company believes that its current
cash position, the working capital generated by future operations and the 
ability to borrow from financial institutions should be adequate to meet its
financing requirements for current operations and the foreseeable future.
