CeraVe Oil Control Moisturizing Gel-Cream

I already use quite a few CeraVe products in my skincare routine, and this has been another good one. It really does help control the oil on my face, especially under makeup, without leaving my skin feeling dry. The gel-cream texture is lightweight, spreads evenly and absorbs nicely, but still feels hydrating. I like that I can get the moisture my skin needs without adding extra shine, and my makeup wears better over it. Definitely a nice addition to my routine.

I have oily skin and have tried quite a few moisturizers trying to find one that doesn’t make my face even oilier. So far, I’ve been happy with this one. It feels light and airy going on, and I like the pump bottle. It’s easy to use, one pump goes a long way, and the lock feature is nice for traveling. My skin definitely still gets oily, but I feel like this keeps it more manageable than other moisturizers I’ve tried. I’ve been through a lot of products looking for something that works, and this is probably my favorite so far.

Believe the great reviews, it really is that good. At 42 I'd always thought by now my skin would FINALLY stop being oily, but nope, genetics determined it's for life apparently. I'm just as crazy oily at this age as ever. *sigh* Obviously, as we get older though, minimizing fine lines and wrinkles become more of a priority, so I don't love using extremely drying or harsh products for the oil issue either. Normally I always carry with me oil blotting papers (which I highly recommend). I use those within 2 hours of doing my makeup and that's even when I've already used an oil absorbing primer, etc. Then I continue to have to use blotting papers to touch up throughout the day, every couple of hours or so. I'm THAT freaking oily. It's such a pain and a little embarrassing to get shiny so fast around others, as I'm sure many reading this can relate to, no doubt. Suffice it to say that I've tried tons, and I mean TONS, of oil absorbing products over the years. While some work a bit better than others (by the way, if you're looking for a matte primer that does indeed control oil longer, I'd suggest trying Rimmel's Stay Matte in the purple and white tube), but none of the primers or moisturizers or treatment creams I've tried ever really worked wonders for how quickly my face produces oil. So I'd basically given up on the hope that any product was going to really knock it out of the park for my particular needs. Enter CeraVe oil control moisturizer. I'm shocked. Totally shocked. The first time I put it on, I made sure my face was super clean and I applied nothing else but this product. I checked the time so I could gauge how long the matte effect lasted. For starters, this moisturizer feels amazing! Smooth and hydrating, your skin drinks it in immediately, and you're left with an instant matte yet moisturized and baby-smooth feel that leaves you wanting to touch your face just to enjoy it. You don't have to wait forever for it to dry and it plays beautifully under makeup without pilling. But the real shock occurred when I touched my face a little over two hours after application. AND IT WAS STILL DRY. No oil. My jaw dropped. No other products I've tried have done this for me. Needless to say, I'm going to be stockpiling this stuff!!!! It's so perfect in nearly every way. I freaking love it. I knew CeraVe was a good brand, but wow, they nailed it with this one!

I will never use another brand. I have oily skin. And this helps with the annoying sweaty looking shine over time. I use a tad bit. It lasts for a while. I only use in the daytime though. I use moisturizing face lotion at night to hydrate. I have sensitive skin so this is super gentle.

This helps control the oil on my face for makeup application. It works really well

I have a super oily face. CeraVe helps more than I expected! It has no scent and just rub it in. It probably cuts down about 70% of the oil on my face. Good buy.

Can't believe i have gone this long without this. Truly game changing. Little bit goes a long way and it absorbs quickly. It actually gives a massive reduction in skin oil. Obviously its not going to stop it completely, but i would say im getting an 80% reduction. This will be always be in my rotation now.

This is a decent moisturizer but i didn’t notice a reduction in the oil on my skin.

One of the best moisturisers l've used—lightweight, effective at controlling oil, and gentle enough not to sting my eyes.

Good one. Does not feel oily on the face.
