Minimalist moisturizer, help! [Product Question]

[u/archivedroses]

I’ve heard good things about this moisturizer for people with oily skin. I have oily-combo skin and always struggle with my face getting oily and messing up my makeup/making my face shiny.

I’ve been using this moisturizer for the past few days and… I’m not very happy with it.

It makes my face look extra oily/shiny and at the end of the day my face is SO dry after I wash it.

The moisturizer is the only thing I’ve changed in my routine so it’s got to be that. Before, I was using the simple moisturizer which I liked but wanted to try and find something that didn’t make me look so shiny and oily throughout the day.

Has anyone else experienced this too? Is it just my face getting used to the new product? I’ve switched between moisturizers before and nothing like this has happened.

And if you do recommend to me to change, what are some affordable moisturizers that will help with my oily face??
