I like to use this in the summer when I am oiler. I don't notice the difference in my skin using this like I do when I use the creme, so I won't be re-purchasing when I run out.

My holy grail of daytime moisturizers, the oil absorbing lotion is just what it's called! I can go all day without any oil bleeding through, even sans powder (which is nothing short of miraculous,...

My skin care regime goes from dirt cheap (QH Mint Julep Mask)to crazy expensive (La Mer). Whatever combination I have stumbled on, it works for my skin. This beautiful moisturizer is enough for...

I have EXTREMELY acne-prone/oily skin and have tried EVERYTHING under the sun. This lotion did a great job of keeping my skin more matte than a lot of other lines that claimed to be "oil...

While La Mer has a devoted following I am not entirely sold on its products. Perhaps, the regular La Mer cream is better than this one. However, this cream was very bad to my skin. I have normal...

For this price, we expected something very special and got average with a bit of scent that tended to set off my allergies though it didn't bother my daughter. It did calm down my greasy skin but...

It really made my face matte for most of the day. It shrinks your pores just like the cream. I didn't break out from this like I did the cream. I is my summer moisturizer. But for the winter it...

I am extremely oily and I guess for the price I was expecting this stuff to work miracles. Well, "miracle" is overstating it but it is one of the best mattifying lotions I've ever used. I still...

I've bought several bottles and used it for a while purely because it didn't leave my skin greasy and absorbed fast. Boy do I regret spending err wasting that much money. Maybe I should've tried...

Great stuff which offers the best oil controlling effect and still moisturize your face. But I won't buy this (I tried the sample) because I won't spend a fortune for an oil controlling lotion even...

I LOVE this product!! I've read the other reviews, but this stuff works for me. It cleared up my skin (broken out from using Biotherm moisturizer)and kept the oil in check. I haven't had to blot...

This was a nice lotion, though I found it a bit drying in places where I'm dry. It was perfect for my sensitive skin, but I'm still looking for the perfect lotion that will handle my sensitive,...

Ugh! This lotion broke me out, made me greasy and all to the tune of serious $$$. I've seen the reviews and while I can appreciate that many people love this product, I can't relate.
