Clinique Dramatically Different Moisturizing Gel To Go
It's Okay...
I consider myself to have normal/combination skin in that I can get oily in my t-zone, but my cheeks are normal, though I have a lot of issues with acne. Because of that, I don't want to under-moisturize my skin. I have this in the level 3, which is for combination skin. I have to do two layers of it, otherwise, my skin still feels tight. So maybe this would work for people with oily skin, but unless you really do, it just isn't enough.
My forehead and chin are oily but my cheeks are very dry and peeling due to a prescription acne medication. I need my moisturizer to be moisturizing enough to fix the peeling but also not to make my oily forehead worse in the process. This would be good if I was only oily but it didn't do the job for my combo skin. Maybe once my cheeks calm down and go back to normal I will revisit this. I recommend this for oily skin but it was nowhere near moisturizing enough for dry skin.
Best moisturizer for oily skin
I absolutely love this moisturizer. I have oily skin and have always had problems finding a moisturizer that kept my dry patches moisturized while not making the rest of my skin oily and breaking me out. Clinique's gel has been a life saver and part of it is because of the fact that it is a gel and not a lotion. I love the travel size because its easy to log around in my purse or for when I travel.
Best moisturizer
It's not really that kind of gel, but nevertheless it's not runny or gooey or creamy. It's between a gel type and a lotion.
I have been thinking about it's smell as a coffee but it's more on the subtle smell of a tea bag. It's not disturbing at all, it's more on smelling an organic product. I just love it.
Why it is best?
It does not leave your skin having that silicone feeling.
It does not feel and look like you just put a moisturizer on with those sleek oil.
It just simply EASILY absorbed by the skin and you can see and feel it.
Your skin is there.
It has kept my skin moisturized. No oily feel and look in summer and I have no problem using it in cold season like December.
I have a sensitive combo-oily skin but I never had a problem with zits and We all have oily times but this one reduced my oiliness. Just a pat of facial tissue and I'm back again.
It stays true to what it claims.
Just to clear. Best moisturizer, no anti-aging effect like it pumps your face or tightening effect. It simply just moisturized with no oily effect.
I don't care if it does not have an SPF 'cause I can use and indulge this at night. I can always use my spf after using this one.
Life Saver in a bottle!
This Gel moisturizer is my lifesaver. I have combo/oily skin and always have the problem of my makeup slipping and sliding all over my face, becoming a sticky hot mess. I watched reviews on it and decided to buy it. OMG, that was the best $24.50 I spent this month. It has a fresh scent, it leaves my face and neck hydrated without the greasy residue left by most moisturizers. Also, because it's a gel and not a lotion, it keeps my makeup on my face, cutting down on the oils. Do Buy!
I love it!
Of the whole 3 step system this is the only part I continue to use.
I just purchased the big bottle. I use it every morning and night. It's the perfect consistency and leaves my skin breathing and soft. LOVE IT.
Winning
This is the only moisturizer I will use on my face. It's a gel - different from the Dramatically Different Moisturizing LOTION. Since for part of the year I have very oily skin, I don't need to add anything extra to it and this product takes care of that. Another plus? You don't need much, so this product lasts a LONG TIME. I probably use about a dime size amount for my whole face - just in the morning.
A regular size lasts me about 6 months.
