What's a good moisturizer with alpha hydroxy acids?

I have oily/combination acne prone skin. I'm currently using Chanel Precision lotion and although it mattifies my face I have dry skin around my t-zone. I read on a website that the best moisturizer for oily and acne skin is one with alpha hydroxy acids. Can anyone recommend one and advise? Thanks!

Hello, 

 

Glycolic Acid is a great when it comes to skin that is oily or acne prone. It helps to refine the pores and helps with dry skin patches. I would really like recommend Boscia Revitalizing Black Hydration Gel. It has glycolic acid, helps strengthen pore walls, and help with oiliness and possible breakouts. It also helps to calm the skin and is perfect to hydrate oily skin without the greasy feel of a heavy moisturizer. Hope this helps, 

 

 

Thanks,

Though this is not carried in Sephora stores, Mario Badescu's AHA& Ceramide Moisturizer is really great!  I've been using it for the past 3 years. http://www.mariobadescu.com/aha-and-ceramide-moisturizer

Bare Minerals has one that I really like called Skin Revver Upper.  It is a multi vitamin complex contains a special blend of glycolic and salicylic acids and botanical extracts. I have oily skin and have used it for a long time;  it has a light texture and helps to clear up any issues.
