oil free moisturizer that works & takes away skin redness?
by Anti Aging Moisturizers on Friday, August 13th, 2010 | 6 Comments
I use Neutrogena oil free moisture but it doesn’t really moisturize my skin very well. If my skin is flaky from acne medication, it doesn’t really work. My skin is acne prone so I can’t use any moisturizer with oil in it. Also my skin gets very red and irritated…I need something to calm it down and take away the redness, that doesn’t have oil in it. Any suggestions?

Cetaphil
there are no real additives, no perfumes or colors
It is the only real one that moisturizes my skin while not giving
my skin the urge to break out or redden.
I have a few European facials to relieve the irritation and small patches of acne. Cetaphil was recommended at that time and I have been hooked ever since.
I have two moisturizers that I live by. My skin is very dry and irritated from acne medication as well. During the day I use Aveeno Ultra-Calming Moisturizer. It works best at reducing redness and is oil-free. At night I apply Pond’s Dry Skin Cream. It is greasy and that’s why I wear it at night but it’s Noncomedogenic so it won’t clog your pores. This stuff really makes my skin smooth and soft in the morning. Both products are made for sensitive skin, which is caused by acne medications. Hope this helps!
The first point I want to make is -Chemical Warfare. How many other different types of product are you using or your face? I have oily, blemish prone skin. I have been using the same moisturizer from Neutrogena but with salicylic acid. It burned a little when I put it on, and was more drying than moisturizing.
You don’t want to use a lot of different products on your face (= Chemical Warfare). I suggest finding a skin care program and sticking with that brand, otherwise you are mixing different chemicals and may be leading to acne!
let me know!

as funny as it sounds olive oil works for that. It balances the ph in your skin so that you are neither too oily or dry.
derma e—alpha lipoderm cream……it contains alpha lipoic acid which calms the redness and green tea as an anti-oxidant………………not oily at all…………..
Aveeno Ultra-Calming Moisturizer it works really good
