Estée Lauder Daywear Matte Oil Control Moisture Gel Krem 50ml

I have recently rediscovered this fabulous Daywear Matte moisturiser during the current heatwaves and it is proving SO effective once again !! It's beautiful velvety feel and finish almost belie its matte effect but it still performs brilliantly! I will be purchasing again very soon:)

This gel Creme is just right for my skin that tends to be oily. It makes my skin feel soft and smooth. I didn't rate it a five because I would like it to have some sunscreen protection too.

I would only recommend this to someone who has very oily skin. I have combination so oily T zone. It's great on my nose stops it looking greasy but on my cheeks it feels very drying. This was advised for me through the quiz, but it's definitely not for me. In fairness I suppose it does what it says so I'll use it on my T zone if I'm going out but I now need to pay the expense of a different one.

This is not an oily moisturizer, it doesn't feel sticky or greasy at all, however it is most certainly not matte and does nothing for pores. I had high hopes. If you're a female who will wear makeup over it, this might be right for your oily skin but those who want to wear it alone like me, this is not a matte finish and your pores will not be refined. My skin looks worse with it on.

Average gel moisturiser- I have used others just as good in the past . Wish they did a lotion moisturiser the use to make daywear lotion but discontinued it!!
