"Another really good option is the CeraVe Oil Control Moisturizer. It's niacinamide based, which helps control oil, and it also has cornstarch and silica, both oil absorbing ingredients. The risk is if you're on the drier side, you'll notice almost like a film that forms on the skin, but if you're oily, it really does help to regulate oil throughout the day."

"I don't actually like that product. The original [CeraVe] formulation is fantastic for oily acne prone skin for a number of reasons. It's got glycerin, prolatum, dimeamethicone, which are emollients and humectants. It's also got ceramides in it which is very good for skin hydration and also skin repair. The reason it's my favorite is because there's no chemical sunscreen in it. It's also got no fragrance and no actives."
