    Moisturiser for oily skin

    I'm currently using Clinique 3 step program- but the moisturizing gel is making my face extremely oily.
    Any recommendations for a different moisturiser?

    Moisturiser for oily skin

    Ive heard that oil free is not good for oily skin as it causes the skin to produce more oil. I use moogoo udder cream on my face.

    Moisturiser for oily skin

    Do you want a day or night moisturiser? You could try looking for something with the word mattifying or matte on it, I know Clarins do some. Do you wear makeup? Could be that all you need is a primer over your usual Moisturising gel and under your makeup. Or even just over the gel without makeup. Loreal Base Magique is excellent for keeping oily skin looking matte. The Becca one for oily skin also gets good reviews among my oily skinned friends.

    Em, I swear by Cetaphil. Not fancy but has been great for my oily skin.

    DDF Moisturizing Dew from Kit is also excellent.

    I have oily skin so I moisturise once or twice a week. Works for me. Use a day cream for the nighttime and you're sorted.

    I like Neutrogena oil free moisturiser and find it really good.

    Buffy which one? The new formulation (I think it's called daily advance) is really nice. I've not tried the original Hugh.
