    Default Wanted: Mattifying spf oil free moisturizer

    I reallyyy need some suggestions. I am past 30 and I have been using an oil free spf 15 moisturizer but I am having problems with little white bumps and I wonder if its partly due to my moisturizer. I really need some suggestions for oily acne prone skin. I have to be careful bc my skin is sensitive and oily...Its a pain n the ass...Anyone have a suitable lotion they like?

    Well, I have combo skin, mostly oily in t zone..in winter I get very dry, except my nose.
    Anyway, I like Olay spf moisturizer, I actually got this in the generic form,
    also Olay total effects 7 in one anti aging salicylic acid acne moisturizer, no spf though.
    I always use a separate spf. Right now it's Neutrogena sport face spf 70, non-clog/non breakout
    I also demo'd philosophy acne moisturizor no spf there either i don't think, & expensive
    Also, I haven't tried, but it's in Allurge mag best of: Vichy Normaderm triple action anti acne hydration lotion..why do these have super long names, lol. It's avail. @ cvs, select walgreens, duane reade stores, or vichy.com

    Have you tried retinol? It works on both, although you still may need some extra stuff. Do scrubs help you?

    I have severely acne with oily skin. Mary Kay oil mattifier $15 and Burt's bees Natural Acne Solutions Daily Moisturizing Lotion $18 there's no SPF but I keeps my acne away.

    I use Clinique's exfoliating scrub once a week. I have to be careful bc my skin is sensitive, I have large pores, and its very oily. Any moisturizer that is oil free makes my skin greasy. I need the spf too. I wanted to get a moisturizer by Cosmedicine that I thought may have worked but the place I originally saw it no longer had it..It just seems impossible to find a mattifying oil free spf moisturizer. I have tried products w retinol and they have actually broken me out. I was given a bunch of Estee Lauder serum I forget what the stuff was called and it broke me out..Prevage as well broke me out..Feel like I just need to break down and see Dermatologist. I also do spray tanning and have noticed dark spots and old acne spots that need to be faded...Man my skiin is alll fucked lol.. I just need a face overhaul...At least its still a pretty face admist all its imperfections..

    i have the answer for you

    wash your face with neutrogena soap ( the one with orange stripe on the box) acne prone skin

    then you will use this moisturizer make sure you read carefully
    la roche posay-Toleriane Soothing Protective Care ( make sure you use they same exact words i wrote they have many kinds) youll be amazed what difference this makes
    non oily can be worn anytime
