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.

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...

I have super oily skin and this lotion helps me stay matte yet hydrated all day
Turns oily skin dry and irritated
My skin went from oily to the complete opposite. It didn't create a barrier. It sucked out the oil from my face making it dry. My face just feels uncomfortable. I've had it for over a month and after a few weeks, my face is irritated and I just feel uncomfortable.

If you have oily skin through out the day, this product with literally wipe your face matte. Don't believe me, try it yourself. It's truly fascinating. Thank you Mario/ Ulta for stealing away my oil. LOL! < 3
Not What I Expected
I had this product in my favorites to try based on the description and the mixed reviews. I'm from Florida, but while in Ohio, ran out of another moisturizer I use that Ulta was out of in stores and online. I decided I'll give this a try. I want to believe maybe the cooler weather in Ohio but it would leave a white film that I had to keep trying to rub in as I'm brown skinned and then once out my face seemed tight dry. It did keep my oily shine at bay but I wonder at what cost to drain my skin of some moisture. I returned it once I got back home. This is the second Mario Badescu product to not work so possibly just not for me.
Heavy Cream
It has a very heavy, thick texture and did not control my oiliness. Also, the bottle gets clogged.
