Moisturizer for Oily Skin

A common misconception is that oily skin does not need to moisturize. Skipping this step can actually cause excess oil production to compensate. Choose a non-comedogenic moisturizer that also has mattifying and pore refining benefits. This will help address shine and large pores.

Works beautifully, but…
I have to admit that this a one of the best moisturizer I have used for my skin care kit I’ve been trying to develop. It is easy to apply as it is thin and it does not make your face feel heavy and oily, rather, it makes your face feel real smooth, not oily at all, and just felt great at its very light weight. The only problem I have is the size. I underestimated how small the product is. I find the product to be expensive only to receive a small amount. I would definitely buy it again if they could increase the size but kept the price the same. Overall, it is a great product that works great but disappointed in the size for the amount of money I spent for this.

    I have really oily skin so moisturizers normally make my face look extra oily, this stuff is amazing! It doesn't even look like I have anything on my face!
    I didn't even know that could be done bc my face always looks oily no matter what I do! I first bought the other moisturizer that doesn't say "mat" and it made my face look AND feel oily. When I ordered again, I tried this one and it feels like it's all absorbed. My face feels nice and dry but still soft and moisturized. The price is expensive for such a small bottle but so far I haven't found anything that works as good so, for the time being, it's worth it to me!

    I LOVE this moisturizer! I'm surprised I haven't reviewed it before! I've been using this product for years now and I'll never stop as long as they make it! This moisturizer is great for combination or oily skin. I use it every day after showering and washing my face. I have bad combination skin. My skin is extremely irritable. I break out and get rashes from almost everything, but not this! I have persistent adult acne and rashes. My skin also gets very dry and cracked, especially in the winter. Before using this product I'd get painful and embarrassing cracking and redness around my nose and mouth every winter and I haven't had it since! My skin can get painfully dry on top of having acne.
    If you frequently have to wash your face, or any skin, because of acne or irritation that can dry out your skin and your body can try to overcompensate for that dryness and produce more oil than needed, microscopic cracks can form in the skin and get irritated by this oil or dirt and clog pores and guess what? You're back where you started. This ends the cycle of combination skin!
    My face looks and feels smoother after every use! It visibly reduces pores and redness without making skin only. It's soothing and very effective. I'd recommend this product for everyone, not just those with sensitive or problem skin.
    It feels light on the skin and leaves you feeling fresh and perfectly moisturized all day. The matte finish won't over dry skin but also prevents break outs, and feels like you have nothing on, not oily at all!
    Its so unnoticeable I honestly don't realize how effective it is until I run out again and my skin starts feeling dry and breaking out.

    **************************PRO TIP****************************
    I took the advice of another reviewer and cut off the bottom of the tube to see if I could get any more out, and sure enough, there was a treasure trove of extra moisturizer at the top near the opening that will last you another week at the minimum. When you reach the end of your bottle, definitely cut it open, because this stuff is expensive. I was able to carefully wrap the tube up and store it in a plastic baggie with all the air squeezed out. In total, this tiny bottle lasted from the beginning of August until mid-October for me.

    Review:
    Previously, I've never in my 23 years of life ever been able to have clear skin (other than before puberty). I've always had acne. I always took great care of my face (washed twice a day, avoided touching it), but nothing ever worked. All of the other things on the market (even the supposed #1 dermatologist recommended) never did anything for me; none of the dermatological-prescribed creams, pills, or face washes could ever touch me. I have combination skin: oily/greasy city in some places, and dry as the Sahara in others. If you have it too, you have my sincere condolences, because I think that up to this point in my review, we have had the same experience.

    Until this brand. Unlike other moisturizers, it's not heavy. It doesn't feel like it's cake. It's light and my skin breathes. It moisturizes the dry spots and doesn't irritate or inflame the acne-prone oily spots. I live in Texas - AKA sweaty city - and I swear, this stuff still doesn't feel like it's heavy on my face, even when it's 105 out. I've never moisturized before because of my acne and my stupid combination skin, but after buying this, I can see that it's possible. You get what you pay for with this stuff.

    Now, price-wise, it is a little much. And the bottle is laughably small. But like other reviewers mentioned, a little bit really goes a long way. I do a tiny pea-sized dab for each cheek (which you can push to cover your nose and chin/upper lip) and another for my forehead and that's worked well for me. It spreads very, very easily. The smell doesn't bother me; other reviews mentioned a chemical smell, but I wouldn't really put it like that. It just smells like cream.

    I wish I'd had this stuff at 14. Maybe my life would've been different. Do yourself a favor and buy this. You will not be sorry.

    **edit**
    I wanted to come and edit this review to specifically mention the importance of using this moisturizer in combination with the face wash. The face wash I bought along with this is La Rochay Effaclar Purifying Gel. I am always so instinctively skeptical and wary about using anything that claims to "moisturize" my face, so after about 2 months I stopped applying this moisturizer after every wash and started only doing it a few times a week - bad, bad, BAD idea. My face in turn began producing oils to compensate for the drying effects of my face wash. After all, the face wash is more on the acidic side. After trial and error, I'm here to tell you that yes, you need to use this stuff every time you wash your face. It doesn't make me break out whatsoever unless I skip one of these two products. Do not skip this important step! Face wash alone is not enough to keep your face clear (if you have combo skin like me).

    I have battled oily skin for most of my life. I moved from the midwest to the mountain west and that seemed to help clear up my skin some. I had to move back to the midwest and BOOM the oil came gushing back. I had it under control with proactiv until I had a baby and my hormones got jacked. Now, my skin has been crazy oily, my skin has been going insane and breaking out, and nothing I've tried seems to help reduce the oil...until I tried this moisturizer.

    I'm serious, this is the fist time in MONTHS that my face isn't shining, doesn't feel gross, and it's looks so much smoother after just ONE APPLICATION. This is absolutely the best moisturizer I've found that seems to actually help. Yes, it's expensive, but feels so worth it. Worth every penny.

    Llevo más de un año usando este hidratante y realmente he notado muy buenos resultados en mi rostro. Su consistencia es muy ligera y no deja nada grasosa la piel, le da un aspecto mate muy lindo. Sin duda forma parte de mi rutina de skincare diaria. La marca como ya se sabe cuenta con mucha calidad en sus productos y este no es la excepción. El único pero que pondría es que su costo es elevado en relación a la cantidad de producto que contiene el envase. El paquete me llegó muy rápido y en perfectas condiciones.

    5.0 out of 5 stars crema de calidad, buena textura y eficaz para piel grasa
    Reviewed in Spain on December 28, 2021
    La crema es de buena calidad, la textura es tipo gel, muy fácil de aplicar a la cara y rápida de absorber. Tiene muy buen olor y deja una sensación agradable después de aplicarla.
    Ademas, al no ser muy densa, con poca cantidad de crema da de sobra para aplicar a toda la cara; por lo que me durará más que otras cremas que tenía que usar mayor cantidad en el día a día.
    En cuanto al motivo principal por el que compré la crema que fue mi piel grasa y con mucho acné, noto que tengo la cara menos brillante, que era mi principal objetivo, pues no he encontrado ninguna crema que me deje la cara con efecto mate; y también he notado que me han salido menos granos.
    Muy contenta con la compra, la recomiendo mucho si tienes piel grasa y buscas una crema de calidad para introducir en tu rutina facial.
