This is a really nice lotion. It's light so it doesn't clog up your pores. It isn't oily at all, which is good for those like me who have oily skin. And it has a built in SPF which is really important.
Since I've been a kid, I've broken out. Years later and several serious rounds of medication, I still break out, but not even close to the same extent that I used to. Even so, I have to be careful about what kinds of moisturizers I use. Often, they leave my skin feeling or looking greasy, which isn't something that my oily t-zone needs any help with.
I began searching for an oil free moisturizer. I tried a few. Didn't click with a single one. I found most left me feeling like my skin hadn't been moisturized at all. I guess I wanted too much. No grease, but soft, smooth skin.
Eventually, I tried Neutrogena Moisture Oil-Free and absolutely fell in love with it. It leaves my skin feeling fresh and smooth and moisturized, but not greasy or oily. It absorbs nicely, feels good, and hasn't once caused me to break out. I recently switched to the kind with an added SPF and found it didn't change the feel at all. It's refreshing and sits beautifully under my foundation and the rest of my makeup. Highly recommended for anyone with acne prone skin who doesn't need any extra oil on their face.
Neutrogena Oil-Free Moisture lotion is a little over 10 bucks depending on the store. Wal-Mart is usually a couple bucks cheaper than any other store I've seen. The quality of this face lotion is superb. I have combination skin dry and oily, and it works fantastic. I hate some lotions for instance that leave your face all shiny and WAY too oily or those that just irritate your skin. However, with Neutrogena you will love it. It lasts around a month for me, somtimes even more. Try it!
This is a fairly good basic moisturizer for combination skin. It's lightweight and non-greasy like the label says, and it also absorbs fairly quickly. One bottle is 118mL so it lasts a long time. It shouldn't really cost anymore than $16 CAN; Shoppers Drug Mart as well as Rexall/Pharma Plus in Canada have Neutrogena products on sale regularly.
For me, I'm a bit more on the dry side of the "combination" skin scale, so this moisturizer is a bit too light for me to use in the fall/winter when it's drier outside--I'd get dry spots on the drier areas of my face like the cheeks and would need to apply moisturizer again. I use this mainly on my face and neck in the spring/summer and also on the décollete since the skin is thinner there.
Not only is this moisturizer one of the cheapes but it worked the best out of everything I've tried. The moisturizer is thick enough to make my skin feel hydrated but it is also thin enough so that you don’t get the heavy mask-like feeling. The most importnant part for me was that my t-zone was controlled. Normally my t-zone would start to feel oily within a few minutes but with this moisturizer I went the whole day with amazingly soft and hydrated skin without the oily shine.
I have skin that can get very oily but if I don't moisturize it gets dry, so this cream is great. it has a good texture and feel when you put it on. It's not too heavy or light. Once you put it on and it dries it doesn't feel oily at all, it's almost a tight feeling, like it's preventing your skin from getting oily, I really like it. It's also oil free so it's good if you have acne prone skin. The only downside would be that it is pricey for a drugstore face cream.
I use this moisturized daily. It's great for combination skin, never makes you feel oily and goes on smooth and clear.
This is a good night moisturizer if you have combination/oily skin (because we all need a little moisture at night!). I like it because it's not thick or heavy, it dries quickly and absorbs matte.
I have been using it for a while and a little goes a long way. You only need about a pea-sized amount. I reccommend it for night because it doesn't have an SPF. It's not good to go to bed with SPF anyway.
