I found a half bottle in the back of my closet and decided to try it again. Now I remember why I stopped using it - it stung my face and left my skin red and blotchy for a while. Of course, the second ingredient is alcohol! Ouch!

I have tried many, many moisturizers, and have often called one my HG to find out 5 months down the line that it has stopped working and doesn't do what it's supposed to. I have waited with this one, and it's safe to say that I love it! At first I didn't want to buy it because it's not cheap, and the fragrance was too much I thought for my sensitive skin. It turned out to be awsome. I have sensitive skin, prone to breakouts, T-zone get oily. This moisturizer helps my t-zone stay shine free all day.No pimples to this day! It gives me a real fresh feeling when I put it on, the packaging is adorable and it has a cute pump so I don't have to stick my fingers in the product every time I want to use it. My skin looks and feels awsome!
INGREDIENTS: Aqua(water), Alcohol Denat, Maris Aqua(sea water), Hydrogenated Polyisobutene, Glycerin, Aluminum Starch, Octenylsuccinate, Phenyl Trimethicone, Cyclopentasiloxane, Polyacrylamide, Arachidyl Alcohol, Dimethicone Crosspolymer, Paraffinum Liquidum(mineral oil), C13-14 Isoparaffin, Behenyl Alcohol, Phenoxyethanol, Polysorbate-85, Tocopheryl Acetate, Chlorphenesin, Menthoxypropanediol, Archidyl Glucoside, Parfum(fragrance), Dimethicone/Vinyl Dimethicone Crosspolymer, Porphyridium Cruentum Extract, Niacinamide, Faex(yeast extract), Sodium Acrylates/C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer, Horse Chesnut(aesculus hippocastanum)Extract, Xanthan Gum, Glyceryl Polymethacrylate, Ammonium Glycyrrhizate, Propene Glycol, Panthenol, Zing Gluconate, Menthol, Camphor, Caffeine, Biotin, Glycyrrhiza Glabra(licorice) Extract.

UPDATE: Over time this gave me a rash. I don't know how the hell it happened since it worked for so long. The pharmacist said it could be the fragrance. This is an awsome product aside from that so I am still giving it a good rating. If you are not sensitive to fragrance give it a try. Awsome for combo skin.

I love the packaging! It's blue and quirky. The product itself feels fresh and tingly on application, which I think is great. I paid £18.50 for this and although that isn't cheap, I will definitely repurchase as it does what it promises - moisturises and mattifies.

it's a great matte lotion,but it kinda stung my face when i used it for the first couple of days,i guess it was because of the alcohol(oil controlling and pore minimizing)

Too expensive and not moisturizing enough. Would not buy again. Pretty bottle though.

Pefect summer moisturizer! Mattifies and moisturizes at the same time--which I had thought was impossible short of using two products. It's so sheer and smells nice too.

When on the tube and not being able to sit down, having some perve ogling at my chest and having another weirdo jamming his elbows into my ribs, finding the perfect matte moisturiser should not be top of my list.
It is, because I find that fantasing about this kind of thing keeps me from poking the pervs eye out and stamping on elbow-man's foot with my stiletto heel.
Little did I know that one dreary wet Saturday in March, that I'd find my perfect matte moisturiser in the form of iOd. Yeah, so I bought this because I liked the cool blue, semi see through packaging and the cute little pump but hey, I'm a girl.
This stuff goes on nicely and helps me keep shine at bay until afternoon.

This is a nice, light moisturizer that gives my face a matte finish. The matte finish doesn't last that long (I have an oily complexion), but it does keep my face moisturized for the day. It's not too pricey, and a little bit goes a long way.

Though it is really not that pricey when compared to other skin care products from Christian Dior, but iOd Matte Aqua Fluid really doesn't give what I paid. The moisturizer is only 'average', what I mean is it just a very very normal moisturizer. It only moisture and that's it! It won't minize pores, give radiant to skin or balance out skin tone. When compare to Clinique's Moisture Surge extra, the Matte Aqua Fluid is a disappointing moisturizer!!

I like this product: it does an ok job mattifying. Very pricey though. I wish it had a sunscreen so I could combine another step.

The Matte Aqua Fluid leaves my skin well-moisturized, while giving it a matte finish. All I ask for. It also lasts a very long time.

This is just an average lotion.. not really mattifying. It doesn't do what it says it's supposed to.
I know someone who LOVES this product and swears by it.. so i decided to try it. I'll probably just use it until it runs out, then search for a better one.

Mixed feelings on this. At first, I loved it, but after a while, the results seemed to not really last. I love the cooling effect of it when it hits your face, but as far as shine control goes, it's not that great. It's too messy to apply, too. All the powder falls out everywhere but where I want it to. For 23 bucks, I would have liked a bigger bottle.

I received this in a swap, and wasn't quite sure what to expect. But what I do know is, it works well as a mattifier. It's not as moisturizing as my regular moisturizer so I'll probably end up putting on my normal moisturizer, letting that sink in, and then applying this product. I highly recommend this product!

This is a nice, light, oil-free moisturizer. I was impressed by its mattifying qualities, it really works! Keeps me pretty much oil-free all day, never had that happen before! The only downside of this lotion is it doesn't moisturize at all! My face feels dry and tight pretty much immediately after application. So, if you have combination skin like I do, you are defitinely going to need to layer this with something else. I will repurchase this because this will be great for the summer.

Another lackluster product. It did an ok job of keeping me shine free (although after about two hours my nose, forehead, and chin were shiny oilslicks) but again the lotion burned like hell going on. I was smart enough not to get it near my eyes this time, but still my face was *so* splotchy for about an hour after applying because of the irritation. I just think Dior really didn't put a lot of though into this line, because I have tried 5 things from it, and every one, with exception to the mattifier powder/water, was crap. This is a much hyped up line, and I fell for the hype, but hopefully you all can get samples and try it first, because I am easy to please, but this line is horrid. It broke me out, burned/irritated my skin, and really didn't moisturize or have any positive effects on me. Save your money, and if you know of a great line for slightly sensitive/oily in T-Zone-dry every where else/moisturizing but mattifying line of skincare, then let me know. God knows my face has been put through enough trauma from iOd for me to start experimenting again!
