IMAGE SkincareMattifying Moisturizer For Oily Skin 57g

This is a great moisturizer that truly does have a mattifying finish. I enjoy more mattifying moisturizers on days where I am wearing light makeup or have a more hydrating foundation so it doesn't get too "wet looking" on the skin. Loved that this is unscented, which is my personal preference especially for facial products. The moisturizer is thick, but absorbed nicely into the skin with no sticky residue (see photo of moisturizer rubbed in to my hand). Sometimes your skin has different needs for different days, seasons, or occasions. I go from dry to combo skin and found this to work great during both. I find that I go back and forth on desired looks (matte or glowy) so it is great to have options. I would repurchase this item.

This facial moisturizer has worked wonders on my oily t-zone. It comes in a nice size, squeeze container that distributes the perfect amount of product per use. The lotion’s lightweight, with a somewhat thick consistency that absorbs pretty quickly into your skin. It has a fresh, clean scent to it which I actually prefer when using skincare products. I was very impressed by the way it minimized shiny areas around my forehead and nose, while also keeping my skin soft and hydrated. For what it’s worth, I can tell by the ingredients and overall effectiveness that it’s totally worth the price.

I work from home and skip the makeup even when I run errands, but I don't want to leave my skin bare and unprotected all day. Sadly, as much as I love my night moisturizers, they leave my face feeling oily during the day. By mid-afternoon, I need to wash it off and reapply (which is sort of ridiculous). This stuff is different. My face is left feeling clean and hydrated all day long BUT doesn't feel (or look) greasy. It's a game-changer for those of us with oily or combo skin. You don't need much and it does what it says it will. Love it.

This lotion felt wonderful to use and was very moisturizing! It did help get rid of my shiny oily skin, and I also like the smell and how long it lasted, since I didn't need to reapply it all day long.Unfortunately, something in this (and a lot of other mattifying moisturizers) caused breakouts for me for some reason so I couldn't keep using it. I have very large pores and oily skin and think I'm just sensitive to one or two mattifying ingredients.Because I've always had a problem with shine, I am eager to find a way to reduce it and have ended up trying many mattifying moisturizing products over the years similar to this Clear Cell Mattifying Moisturizer, to see if they will help reduce shine and oil, but still provide decent moisturization. I tend to have trouble with any that use certain ingredients like starches to absorb the oil though I think.I'm still not super familiar with all the starch-like ingredient names, but they must clog my pores because they seem to cause my face to breakout a day or two later after using them. I reviewed the ingredients for this one again and noticed this has "Oryza Sativa (Rice) Bran Extract" and Vitamin E (tocopherol) which might be comedogenic for me, and I think one of these may have given me trouble , so I sadly won't be able to use it long term but I will definitely continue using other IMAGE Skincare products that work for me.

This facial cream/lotion is very interesting! It has a mattifying effect but it doesn't leave my skin feeling dry at all. It's more like the texture of a rose petal.The effect reminds me of a makeup primer, and it acts like one but without the "slip" feel you get from a lot of them. I'm not a big makeup person, but I did try it out under foundation the other day just so I could see how it worked and I'm happy to report it worked great. There was no pilling, no slippage, and no oxidation.Still, as a bare face lady, I'm much more concerned with how it acts on its own. I say that, but technically it's not alone, it's the last step in my routine. It plays very well with my serums and other skincare products though.I let everything else sink in and absorb and then I put a pea sized bit of this on and go about my day. A pea sized bit does my entire face and neck.Soft, moisturized skin that doesn't shine. It isn't matte like powdered skin, just not oily looking. If anything this makes the skin look perfectly balanced without weighing it down or looking like you've got anything on it.Definitely a product in happy to have in my summer skincare routine! Winter is a long way away, so we'll just have to see about that when it gets here.
