    Just for reference, I have blemish prone skin that tends to be more because of hormones than due to oiliness. I do however do have slightly combination skin, with a generally oily T-zone but it...

    This moisturiser is great, best I've had in fact. It really keeps oily skin free of oil better than any anything else I've tried. Best used on T zone. I have very oily and sensitive skin and it is...

    Probably the best feature of this product is that is does not break me out and gives some moisture, but not enough for me in colder weather. I find it irritates my face a bit and makes it a bit red...

    I am in complete agreeance with people who found this product to be amazing. I have oily skin and thus is acne-prone from the oil build-up throughout the day. This is the first and only moisturizer...

    I bought this in a kit along with the cleanser. I have normal to dry skin, so this stuff isn't really catered towards me. Anyway, I used it once in the summer time and it left my skin feeling so...

    So far, this is the only moisturizer I've tried that will keep me matte or semi-matte throughout the day. There is a visible difference in the oiliness of my skin when I use this, versus when I...

    I had the same problems with this product as the Vichy Normaderm moisturizer. It makes my skin look matte initially, but after a couple of hours I look oilier than ever. I don't think it...

    I have sensitive, dry skin prone to breakouts, and this moisturizer does the job as a daycream. It leaves my skin matte, but noticeably moisturized, and it is very gentle. Best of all; the pump...

    This is the only mattifying moisturizer that I'm able to usethat does not break me out. It keeps my face matte all day. I also love the texture and really appreciate that there is no odor.
