Jurlique Calendula Cream is a soothing, moisturising cream for delicate and acne prone skin.

I also love Orlane's Extrait Vital Emulsion. It is really light and absorbs well. It kind of smells like baby powder.

I use Dr. H normalizing day oil. My skin is oily and slightly sensitive and this gives me zero problems -- the ingredients are completely natural.

I just started phytomer hydracontinue instant moisture. I'll let you know how it goes. I can tell you it's been 4 days now and my skin hasn't reacted with the usual redness or pimples.

Laura Mercier has an oil-free moisturizer that has UV protection, it goes on matte and controls shine throughout the day.

Dermalogica also has a good line of oil-free moisturizers for sensitive skin that doesnt give you break-outs.

For sensitive skin that still produces lots of oil, Dermalogica's Active moist. I still use it during the day but add the hydrating booster as my skin gets drier with age. It's the only daily moisturizer I've found that doesn't make me break out or give me milias.

I second the recommendation for Dermalogica's Active Moist. It gives a nice matte finish, but hydrates and makes your skin feel "normal". It gives me zero issues with my sensitive skin. I love it.

Lol.. I third the Dermalogica Active Moist... used that one on and off for years and it's always in my cupboard as a reliable staple.
Very Happy

i would recommend Oil-free moisturizer by Laura mercier. It doesnt contain any oils to cause breakouts and is goood for sensitive skin. Also it leaves a matte finish so your skin wont look oily

I have sensitive/oily/acne-prone skin and I use Miessence Purifying Moisturizer. I love it. But they also have moisturizers for sensitive skin. But in my opinion, any of theirs can be used on sensitive skin.

They have samples, if you wanted to try it out.

I have the same skin problems. I've used DDF Moisture Dew for about a year (it does have beeswax-so you might want to look at the ingredients before you buy). My skin has responded very well to Decleor's ylang-ylang oil and angelique oil (yes, it is for dry skin but my winter skin loves it). If you apply a few drops while your skin is wet from a toner (Caudalie's raisin water or a spray with Napca is nice) or just from washing, the oils work as a moisture barrier.

When I was reading through this post I knew I would come upon this from you. Wink In my next mixture I am going to try jojoba instead of hazelnut oil.



Anyway, jillums, I use something similar to what Rosebud uses: the homemade version of Decleor's Ylang-ylang oil. My recipe (fyi):
.5 oz hazelnut oil
.5 oz kukui nut oil
6 drops ylang ylang e.o.
4 drops geranium e.o.
1-2 drops rosemary e.o.
1-2 drops chammomile e.o.

I use more at night than morning and in the morning I let it soak in for 10 minutes before applying makeup.

It moiturizes and soothes plus helps with oiliness. (I love that it doesn't irritate my skin!).
