Best Daytime Lotion for Oily Skin

As a person with quite oily skin, who is also acne prone, it has been a journey finding the right day time moisturizer that would still work under my makeup. But this is by far the best day time lotion I've yet to use. Oily skin types need moisture too, if not just as much to balance out the oil pro...

What a Hypocrite, Says for Oily Skin but CAUSES Oily Skin!

I was recommended this Mario brand by a Ultra Skincare expert. I picked out this moisturizer because it claimed to be for "Oily Skin" & i was having trouble with my pores again due to hormonal acne & oil build up from bacteria. It claims "Soothing Botanical & healing seaweed make this oil free, idea...

As far as my beauty routine goes, I have found the perfect product for everything with the exception of a good moisturizer. I was previously using Clinique's moisturizing gel, but I found it left me with the same combination skin problems I've always had-- dry around the eyes and greasy in the t-zone. I've only been using this product for about a week now and maybe that's not long enough to say, but I think my face is actually greasier with this lotion. I don't like how it goes on and I don't think it smells very good either. I'll give it a few more weeks because I do love Mario Badescu products, but if you're like me and find yourself blotting your forehead with post-it notes at your desk throughout the day... this won't change things.

Bottom Line No, I would not recommend to a friend

When I bought this, I was very excited. I do not have sensitive skin but this broke me out. I tried it 4 different times hoping that it was not the culprit, but it was. Sad day.

I am a 55 years old woman. I have had oily skin all my life. Right now I am looking for a moisturizer suitable for oily skin, but that treat wrinkles, dark spots and a more mature skin. Something that provides moisture, firmness and elasticity to my face. What would you recomend?

Q
I have very oily, acne prone skin. I'm in my mid 30s and looking for a moisturizer that will help to minimize signs of aging and also mattify. I currently use the enzyme cleansing gel and special cucumber lotion day and night. I use the glycolic foaming cleanser 3 times a week, and the aloe herbs and rosewater facial spray at night only. What's the best moisturizer to add to my regimen for use during the day? I've already tried the oil free moisturizer with spf and I didn't like it because it did not mattify.
