Cream after hydrating serum

Hi,

 

I'm searching for a new cream that I can use after my hydrating serum. At the moment I'm using Innisfree - intensive hydrating serum with green tea. Can someone, please, recommend me a cream for oily and acne prone skin? I used to use Skintegra cream intended for skin prone to acne and comedones. 

And also I never used eye cream, so I would like to add it in my routine. If someone can recommend that one also.

 

Thank you so much!

Sandra

Re: Cream after hydrating serum

@Sandy7394   We are fortunate to have so many good choices for skincare, but it gets overwhelming sometimes (at least it does for me.)

I like @curlychiquita 's suggestion. I'm not sure if you are looking for an acne treatment cream, or a moisturizing cream.  If it's moisture and balance you are looking for, I wonder if a moisturizing gel would be effective. 

Gels are a little lighter, and tend to clog pores less, than creams, and can be very effective moisturizers, especially when used with a serum.

In our house we have Biossance Squalane + Probiotic Gel Moisturizer.  It seems to help the acne-prone complexions in our home.  It even moisturizes my skin, and I have dry skin.

Another popular choice here on Sephora is belif The True Cream Aqua Bomb.  It's a gel/cream.  It does have denatured alcohol as an ingredient, so if you are sensitive to that ingredient beware.

If you do a search for "gel moisturizer" here on Sephora, multiple pages of choices will display and you will most likely find something that will work for you.

As far as an eye cream goes, First Aid Beauty has some great products for sensitive skin.  They make four different eye creams/gels: First Aid Beauty Eye Duty Niacinamide Brightening Eye Cream 0.5 oz/ 15 mL , First Aid Beauty FAB Skin Lab Retinol Eye Cream with Triple Hyaluronic Acid 0.5 oz/ 15 mL , First Aid Beauty Eye Duty Triple Remedy: Brighten, Depuff and Smooth Fair/Medium , and First Aid Beauty 5 in 1 Eye Cream 0.5 oz/ 15 mL .

Yes, so true! 

Yes, I'm looking for an acne treatment cream.

Will definitely check your recommendations.

Niacinamide is good for acne prone skin. One moisturizer that works well for my oily acne prone skin is Dr. Dennis Gross Skincare Stress Repair Face Cream with Niacinamide 2 oz/ 60 mL . There are other good niacinamide creams; this is the first one that came to mind. @Sandy7394
