Hi! Been a few mths since i last posted! My first purchase from EDS was Decleor's products and they were great! But i finished them and thinking of switching to Murad but not sure which products are suitable Sad

I have normal/combi skin with slightly dehydrated cheeks andoily t-zone. I also have blackheads on my nose. I'm from Singapore so its summer all yr round.

I intend to purchase a cleanser, toner, serum and eye gel or(not too rich)cream. Hows the Energizing Pomegranate range from Murad? Is it suitable for my skin? Too oily or not hydrating? Question

Need help!! Confused

I have used thier problem kit for my oily skin. Well it did help with my minor breakouts but didn't see any results for oilyness.

I know they have a good eye gel, it's Murad Moisture Silk Eye Gel.

I find that oils have helped me better in hot temps, It hydrates and controls the oil. I do use decleor aromaessence prouducts and i love it. I just switched to Neroli and still use ylang ylang once in a while.

I've used the Energising Pomegranate Treatment, Essential Day Moisture and the Essential-C SPF15 eye cream. I've got normal to combo skin (and live in Brisbane, Aus) and these products have been fine for me. I've had the Pomegranate Moisturiser SPF15 recommended as well.

Seeing as you're after an eye gel or a light cream, you might like the Orlane Oligo Cooling Balm which is a light gel-cream combination.

I would recommend the Oil Control Lotion from Dermalogica. It would be very nice for the Singapore climate. I'm sure it would suit your t-zone but you might need to either use something else on your cheeks or use a moisture booster/serum. Another good product would be Jurlique Herbal Recovery Gel, but again you *might* find that it isn't enough for your cheeks - not too sure. These things are hard to say because nobody but yourself knows how dehydrated your cheeks are. Again, the Herbal Recovery is very light and would be nice for the humid/hot Singapore weather.

You could also try Sothys Hydroptimale (the gel not the cream though). This is a beautiful light textured gel-cream formulation and it is quite moisturising but light at the same time.

I'm not sure about that one. I haven't used it myself. Hopefully someone on here will be able to answer that for you. If not, you can always call EDS and ask for their advice.
