Review on Effaclar Mat Oil-Free Mattifying Moisturizer by La Roche-Posay - Daily Moisturizer for Oily Skin to Reduce Oil, Minimize Pores, and Exfoliate with LHAs by Ada Banas ᠌

I am the owner of oily skin with enlarged pores and all the ensuing consequences. My face is hard to matte. It is rare that a matting agent, whether it is a care or a decorative product, copes with the task. Efaclar mat does a great job! The product is placed in a convenient flat tube, it smells like other products from the Efaclar line, there is no smell of alcohol, it has the consistency of a gel of medium density, the color is white translucent (in a word, an emulsion). As I said, my skin mattifies perfectly for several hours, does not narrow the pores, but due to the dullness of the face, they become not so obvious, moisturizing is average. The sensations after applying the emulsion are pleasant, dryness goes away, it doesn’t lie like a film, I don’t feel this product on my face at all, it doesn’t clog pores, it is absorbed instantly, you can immediately apply makeup. By the way, this is an excellent base for make-up for oily skin. Consumption is rather small. I used this remedy from December to May daily in the morning and in the evening. It was felt that moisturizing at night was not enough, but I was saved by moisturizing masks 2 times a week and everything was fine, the skin did not peel off. It will be perfect for summer. For dry and normal skin, the emulsion is not suitable unambiguously. This product is now on my favorites list. Will definitely buy next summer.
