    This product smells nice, has a nice smooth texture and sinks into the skin well. The packaging is nice too. But, like so many expensive products, this made my skin break out. I have very oily...

    I have sensitive, fair, oily skin, and I LOVE this moisturizer! I'm about to buy my third tube of it. I use about a dime-size amount to cover my entire face; any more, and it doesn't mattify as...

    This doesn't keep me matte not even for 2 hrs. It dries my skin and makes it itchy. Dissapointed.

    This is a great moisturizer for people with oily skin! It has a nice texture and sinks into your skin almost instantly. It has the same scent as other Effaclar products - which might bug some...

    I was suspicious at first. Well, I already have two Holly Grail moisturizers, why would I want to try another one? One word: curiosity. And after 1,5 month I think it's quite nice, actually. It...

    I like this moisturiser, but it doesn't quite do what I wanted it to do. PROS: - It is lightweight, which makes it a good option for the warmer months. - It's a lovely base for foundation. -...

    This is a nice moisturizer, but I didn't find anything particularly special about it. I was really hoping that the mattifying properties would be a lot stronger than they are. The formula itself...

    They recently changed the packaging to a squeeze bottle/tube. Which imo, is better. This is my HG moisturizer in the summer months. Definitely makes my skin matte & helps my make up stay on longer.

    Its a good makeup base and a mattifier however it is really NOT moistursing and doesn't do any good change on the skin.In my opinion its overpriced for what it is and will not be re-purchasing it

    This is is my first time buying this- it's now called Effaclar Mat and is a sebum- regulating moisturiser which is good news for me and others who have oily, shiny skin. This does not suit dry...

    I really love this moisturizer to death but sadly it lacks a SPF. If this has an SPF at least 30, it would have earned HG status and I would paid any price to have it on hand. Instead I have to...
