Clinique Dramatically Different Moisturizing Gel. I’ve tried others and always come back to this.
Monday, October 20, 2008
I LOVE IT – if only it had SPF!
Tuesday, October 21, 2008
I third this one. It’s fantastic, extremely lightweight and fast-absorbing. My skin feels perfectly moisturized.
Another one I really like is Mary Kay Oil Free Hydrating Gel. It’s very close to the Clinique one, except comes in a glass tub.

i’d put money on Dr. Hauschka’s Normalizing Day Oil – who knew that putting oil on an oily face would actually help normalize it? d’oh! :)
Tuesday, October 21, 2008

Dermalogica’s Active Moist moisturiser! It’s perfection in my opinion! =P x

Origin’s Matte Scientist is my favorite.
Tuesday, October 21, 2008
This one gave me pimples :(
Monday, October 20, 2008

Lush vanishing cream :)
Monday, October 20, 2008
This is also my fave!
Monday, October 20, 2008
Dr. Brandt Poreless Gel, but I’m looking for a lower priced alternative.
Monday, October 20, 2008
I got a sample and I loved it!! but yeah, the price is a little high =(
I might give in, though, it’s the only mattifying that hasn’t given me break outs.
Monday, October 20, 2008
I have to echo Clinique Dramatically Different Moisturizing Gel. It’s the lightest moisturizer, and it evaporates almost immediately into the skin.
Monday, October 20, 2008
Kiehls Sodium PCA Oil Free Moisturizer is good…but no SPF, as well as their Blue Moisturizer for Acne Ridden/Prone skin.
Monday, October 20, 2008
The Body Shop seaweed moisturizer.
Monday, October 20, 2008
Clinique’s Superdefense!
Monday, October 20, 2008
Clarins matifying lotion.

I hate oily skin. Presently i’m fighting the same battle as you :)
Ive found that a moisturizer isn’t absolutely necessarily. That instead if you have the right amount of water per day (8 glasses or so) you will be fine. Try to use oil absorbing lotions or you could talk to a dermatologist. NOTE: the dermatologist might recommend products that are out of your price range and that’s fine, just look at the products ingredients and look for a cheaper alternative for less $$. Right now I only use a little drop of moisturizer twice a day which is either CAUDALIE Vinopure Mattte Finish Fluid or DERMOLAGICA Oil Absorbing Lotion. Also, dont forget the rest of your daily routine, remember to cleanse and tone twice a day. Use a cheap cleanser because it only last on your face for 30 seconds at tops. For a toner use a mild one i’m using an apricot one from Elemis. Lets not forget sun protection! Acne prone/oily skin does terrible with sun. Use an Spf 30 and up. I use Korres Sunscreen face cream Watermelon which is excellent. My oily skin is starting to get closer to combination which is great! Hope this Helps!

Babor Perfect Combination day cream…great for mattifying, since it has bamboo powder and it has natural SPF 4 and built in UVA protection! The Best One I have ever found ;))))
Monday, October 20, 2008
Elisabeth, I had the same problem. Although I could get away with Clinique’s DDMG it would ruin my look by the middle of the day and all on what the others mentioned are concerned, my skin would breakout and sweat just by mentioning them!
If you can get your hands on Caudalie – Vinexpert day cream, go ahead and try it. It was my biggest discovery in the last years!
Monday, October 20, 2008
I use Cetaphil.. I like it..
Monday, October 20, 2008
I use the Mattifying Primer from Proactiv which is pretty nice, but for regular moisturizer I use the green tea moisturizer from Proactive. I was using the Oil COntrol Lotion from MAC….its all trial and error!!
Monday, October 20, 2008
I love the Tea Tree Oil products from the Body Shop for my t-zone oiliness!
Monday, November 3, 2008
i lov it too <3

La Roche Posay Effaclar Active Matte – its an under the radar moisturizer but totally amazing!
Monday, October 20, 2008
Dove Sensitive Skin Day Lotion. It’s the ONLY ONE that does not make my face greasy and/or make me break out. Seriously. The only one. *covets*
Monday, October 20, 2008
Olay Total- Effects for normal skin w/ SPF 15. I don’t use moisturizer in the morning, just sunscreen. I use the moisturizer starting from mid-day, after being cooped up in the office. It works and my makeup (after touch up) stays put.
Tuesday, October 21, 2008
big fan of Philosophy Hope in a Jar.
Tuesday, October 21, 2008
try Johnson & Johnson’s Purity line, ladies. I like it *better* than cetaphil for a gentle cleanser!!
Tuesday, October 21, 2008
I love Clean & Clear Soft Day and Night moisturizers…cheap, absorb quickly and don’t break me out. Plus the Day one has SPF 15!
Tuesday, October 21, 2008
wow! this is helpful

Thursday, February 19, 2009
hey, im new here and just wanted to share my p.o.v. my skin type is oily combination. i had black heads, white heads and pimples. although it wasnt serious acne, i still had new ones every few days.
i tried everything, even the clinique 3-step. it didnt work. just made it worst
so i finally went to see a dermotologist, he gave CENTAPLIH CLEANSER and pills. now i dont depend on the pills so much but the cleanser really helped. for those who have the same problem, give it a try.
i dont really use toners but i use biotherm aquasource moisturizer. its great.

CENTAPLIH CLEANSER? where can i get my hands on that? or did u mean Cetaphil?
Friday, May 15, 2009

The Made from Earth Vitamin Enhanced Moisturizer saved my face!!
In my late twenties, I tried just about every moisturizer I could find including rarified ingredient boutique lotions but my skin remained dry, hot, itchy, flaky, and I was seeing laugh lines around my eyes. I was about to give up hope until my mother, whowho has AMAZING skin, brought me the organic Made from Earth “Vitamin Enhanced Moisturizer”…
On the occasions I do try other lotions, they never measure up.
My skin thanked me after the first application. After a few days, it looked better, was less red, less chapped. Within a month or two (or less, I don’t remember after 3 years) I had no lines near my eyes, my skin feels soft and comfortable unless I abuse it. When I abuse it, this lotion makes it feel better. People consistently guess my age to be 5-8 years younger than I am even though I have grey hair.
I almost never need more than a tiny amount the size of a pencil eraser to cover my face, neck and hands. (Keep the cap or it dries out.) I recommend it to anyone looking for a facial moisturizer that works as good or better than advertised. Absolutely worth the money since it last for a good 3 month period.

I’ve used Cetaphil moisturizer with decent results and was glad for the SPF, but my favorite so far would have to be Clinique’s DDMG. No SPF, but I rarely go out during the daylight hours anyways.
