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!
Describe Yourself Skin Care Professional
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, ideal for acne, sensitive & oil free" Which is all of me. "Controls irritation, provides natural protection against oil loss". Here's the kicker, it made my entire face greasy, causing my face to produce more oil which then made my what was then a small amount of blackheads & pore size into a colony of blackheads with broken pores. I now have blackheads on my forehead where i've never in my 14 years of battling acne had before. The moisturizer is the same texture as sunscreen & doesn't absorb well at all. You can accidentally apply too much without knowing it. With other moisturizers you can apply a great deal of product & nothing bad happens. With this even the slightest amount can leave your skin feeling heavy in only a couple of hours with white streaks. Since i have acne, this product surprisingly doesn't moisturize my acne dry patches. I only wear my acne cream at night so i have this product on in the day & night & both times my face will have dry spots. It's honestly confusing when you see massive oil build up but then dry patches around my chin and mouth. My skin feels gross, heavy even under makeup. If you're wondering about my skin it's Moderate/Severe Hormonal Acne, I'm 24 years old, Combo, Sensitive, oily, dry skin & i've been battling acne for 14 years of my life. The positive note is that my whiteheads are gone but dark spots plus the blackheads forming plus the open pore size has aged my face so much that i started crying when only a month ago my face was healthier than average. Only reason i stuck with this product for a month+ & used it daily was because products tend to take awhile before seeing results. This is a Big Fail in the Mario line. Don't buy!
Made my oily skin worse
This did moisturize my skin well, but it's way too greasy. It made my oily skin way oilier than it would have originally been. The product reminds me of sunscreen, and it's really hard to rub completely into my skin. There were a lot of white streaks leftover that I had to rub in good, and it just left my face feeling sticky afterward.
Too drying.

This moisturizer dried out my skin on the first use. Made my skin flakey.
I would definitely buy this product again!

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.
- Asked by Ally
- Official Answer By Mario BadescuThanks for your question. Our line does not carry mattifying moisturizers. The Control Moisturizer for Oily Skin would make a great option to help balance oily skin types. Was this answer helpful to you
