Best Unscented Face Moisturizer

I have been searching forever for a good quality facial moisturizer that is unscented. I am currently using Ole Henriksen oil control moisturizer and it works well except it is scented. I would like something:

 

1. Long lasting because I live in Wisconsin and we are experiencing kind of a brutal winter. 

2. To use as a moisturizer before applying makeup so it must soak in nicely and be smooth.

3. My skin is combo and can get oily and/or dry so I am open to all different types as long as they are scent free. 

 

Thanks for any help! ☺

Re: RE: Best Unscented Face Moisturizer

Love this!!

I even mix 3 drops of the Josie Maran argan oil on super dry chilly days.

RE: Best Unscented Face Moisturizer

Fab Beauty Intense Repair moisturizer is absolutely amazing and unscented!!!!

I also live in Wisconsin, and it does so well with my acne prone skin, and the cold harsh weather. #wisconsinlife

I agree with the ones recommending CeraVe and Cetaphil! I have acne prone skin and those two work great for me! I use the CeraVe PM for night and Cetaphil for daytime! They’re both very moisturizing!

I use frag-free products.  For skincare, I love the DE line - marula oil, B-Hydra and Lala cream.  For the dry winter we are having here, I rely heavily on Lala cream.  It lasts all day.  Sometimes I put a little bit on at night.  Their Protoni cream just dropped today and I hear it is more gel-like and lighter weight.  I plan to pick my jar up today.

Also Josie Moran has unscented face butter.  It is very moisturizing and I like it.  I have sample sizes that I carry around in case I need a quick fix of moisture or if I'm traveling.

Re: Best Unscented Face Moisturizer

If you're looking for a moisturizer for dry to normal skin, ceraVe moisturizing cream is my favorite. It's unscented and recommended by my dermatologist so its really sensitive on the skin and doesn't have bad ingredients. When my skin is dryer than usual, my favorite is Clinique dramatically different moisturizing lotion, which also has no scent.

I have acne prone and dry skin so my dermatologist recommended the brand CeraVe So I am currently using CeraVe Daily Moisturizing Lotion (you can get it at Target) And it is unscented and keeps my face moisturized If you don’t like this option Cetaphil makes good moisturizers for oily and dry skin with spf.

Re: Best Fragrance-Free Face Moisturizer

When searching you can do ingredient preferences and choose fragrance free, this should help narrow it down for you ☺️0E1D108A-9612-4702-9D48-A8E31103CDB0.jpeg

Thanks for the tip ☺ I tried searching with the fragrance-free filter and some come up that are scented like fab coconut moisturizer, but at least it is a starting point.

Re: Best Fragrance-Free Face Moisturizer

@BeautyScientist @bakeamuffin I think the fragrance-free filter is intended to be used to filter out products which have fragrance as an added ingredient - not necessarily that all of the products within that filter will have no scent at all, since some of the included ingredients may have a scent (but were not added for the purposes of providing fragrance to the product, since often scented products simply list "fragrance" as an ingredient). 

 

Some suggestions for unscented moisturizers:

  • CeraVe Moisturizing line
  • I'd also look into Paula's Choice which has a huge emphasis on staying away from fragrance in products
  • Clinique (I'd look into the Moisture Surge line for options)

I am trying clinique moisture surge in a sample size and so far I am undecided. I like that it is unscented. I don't know if it will hold up to the weather. It also has bubbles in it so unsure how it would do before applying foundation. 

I can look into Paula's Choice. I think I have tried Cerave.

Thanks for the info on the fragrance free filter. That makes sense! ☺ 

Re: Best Fragrance-Free Face Moisturizer

@BeautyScientist Which Moisture Surge product are you trying out right now? When you mentioned bubbles, it sounds like it might be the supercharged concentrate, which is one of the lighter options. There's a whole line of products, so you may be able to combine a few of them or try some of the others to find something that works best for you. In particular, you might end up preferring the 72-hour hydrator (it's a cream) or the fortifying hydrator or the overnight mask. And there's the regular extended thirst relief cream. I also quite like the face spray right after cleansing my face but before applying moisturizer. 

Re: Best Fragrance-Free Face Moisturizer

@lachaton Yes the sample I am using is the clinique supercharged. Thanks for the options, I will definitely look into them. ☺
