Having a
good moisturiser absolutely important in your skincare routine, as much as
having a moisturiser you need to find one that suits your skin and addressed
your skincare needs. Having oily skin I am always on the lookout for a good moisturiser that will help me keep my skin matte for longer. It's quite
difficult to find a moisturiser that help me achieve this but this is where the L'OREAL
hydra-fresh balancing refining icy gel moisturiser suitable for oily to
combination skin that instantly quenches skin and reduces sebum excess comes to
play. Oil-water balanced keeping the skin watery and oil-free for longer. It's
made with deep marine source water naturally enriched with essential minerals
such as concentrated purifying zinc material that is known for its powerful
sebum regulating properties rather than ordinary sea water. The moisturiser
also has micro sponge technology that helps absorb the excess sebum from the
skin to keep the appearance of matte for longer.
The
packaging very nice as it comes in a seas green glass bottle. It has an easy to
use lip and a protective cover that prevents leakage and keeps the moisturiser
in place. It is reasonably priced as well at HK$89 at Bonjour. It does have
quite a strong smell that smell a bit like the sea, but its bearable and once
you apply the cream the smell is gone. It has a very light texture to it as if
it has been whipped. It feels absolutely light on the skin once applied and
absorbs immediately so you don’t have to wait till its absorbed. When applying
it you do feel a cool sensation on the skin. I actually like the feeling as its
quite refreshing it kind of wakes you up
I first
applied this with nothing else on my face and the moisturiser did keep my skin
looking matte for at least 7-8 hours. However I tried it on another day and
went out and it lasted around 6 hours for me before the skin started becoming
shinning. Foundation does go on smoothly and it didn’t get splotchy. I felt
that the foundation lasted a bit longer after I started using this moisturiser.
I feel that my skin has got softer, plumper and smoother looking as well. Even
though the skin is matte if doesn’t feel too dry or tight, it feels matte yet
feels moisturised at the time without being too oily.
I really
liked this moisturiser as it did stick to its claims and it has helped me keep my skin looking matte for longer
while making my skin softer, plumper and smoother looking. I would definitely
recommend this moisturiser to anybody that has oily to combination skin. It
will actually surprise you as how well it makes the skin feel.
Would you
be giving this a try and controlling your oily skin? Let me know I would love
to know if this worked for you the same way it did for me.
