This lightweight, oil-free moisturizer is formulated with antioxidant-rich roasted bamboo salt crystals, which helps you to achieve a dewy — yet never greasy — glow.
"If you have oily skin, you'll want to use a lotion that provides enough hydration without causing issues such as acne," explained board-certified dermatologist Dr. Debra Jaliman to Hello Giggles. Along those lines, she recommends this popular pick as a daily moisturizer that helps keep oily skin balanced and clear.
"Formulated with heavy-hitting moisturizing ingredients in a light, easy-to-spread lotion, this easy-to-spread lotion can be used both on the body and even on the face without leaving the skin feeling greasy," said dermatologist Dr. Joshua Zeichner to Women's Health. It's actually appropriate for combination skin as well and, at less than $10, it's quite the steal.
Dr. Mona Gohara recommends gel moisturizers like this one, if you've got oily skin: "They're wonderful to use in the morning because they're light and absorb easily," she explained to Shape.
Skeptical about using a face oil on oily skin? Well, as Follain founder Tara Foley explained to Well and Good, "I always recommend fighting oil with oils... If you put a light one on your skin, it tricks it into thinking it's already produced enough oil so that it doesn't go on to make more." Squalane is especially good for this purpose, since it's super lightweight and absorbs seamlessly into skin without leaving a film or any stickiness.
