Neutrogena Visibly Clear Pink Grapefruit Oil-Free Moisturiser
Fact: oil and moisture are not the same thing. Fact: lots of oily/combination-complexioned/spotty women steer clear of moisturiser completely, fearful that a cream will make their skin shiny-looking or downright greasy. This is Not A Good Thing. In reality, absolutely all skins need moisture for healthy cell 'communication': if cells don't communicate well, important anti-ageing functions are slowed down.
So we think any oil-phobic women should have a go with this: a really ultra-light moisturiser which is designed to quench skin without clogging pores (it's 'non-comedogenic', to use technicalspeak). It also features something called MicroClear® technology, to help fight breakouts.
Actually, even though all of us at Beauty Bible have pretty thirsty skin, we've found this lightweight formula makes a surprisingly good 'primer' for make-up, full-stop. And we're also very keen on the pink grapefruit smell which is decidedly - how shall we put this...? - Origins-esque, reminiscent of their A Perfect World range.
A seriously steal-like skin drink, this.
