Derma E Acne Oil-Control Matte Face Moisturizer 2 oz — Oil-Controlling, Salicylic Acid & Tea Tree

DERMA E Acne Oil-Control Matte Face Moisturizer is a lightweight, 2 oz clarifying cream that controls shine, helps keep pores clear, and leaves a smooth matte finish.

This fast-absorbing moisturizer combines salicylic acid and tea tree oil with soothing botanicals to help balance oil while calming irritation. It’s formulated to hydrate without greasiness, gently exfoliate, and serve as a makeup-friendly base. The product is vegan, cruelty-free, and packaged responsibly, making it a daily option for those wanting clearer-looking skin with minimal shine.

How does this moisturizer help reduce breakouts?

The formula uses salicylic acid to support the removal of dead skin cells that can trap oil and debris, while tea tree oil contributes antimicrobial-supportive properties commonly used in acne formulations. Together they help promote a cleaner pore environment without over-drying the skin.

• Salicylic acid for gentle chemical exfoliation and unclogging pores
• Tea tree oil to help maintain a balanced surface
• White willow bark to support mild exfoliation

Will this moisturizer calm redness and irritation?

Soothing ingredients like aloe vera, chamomile, and lavender oil are blended to reduce the appearance of redness and comfort stressed skin. Panthenol (pro-vitamin B5) also supports hydration and helps skin feel less tight after exfoliation.

• Aloe vera and chamomile to soothe and calm reactive skin
• Lavender oil for a gentle calming effect and pleasant scent
• Panthenol to aid hydration and skin resilience

Can I use this under makeup and will it control shine?

This moisturizer dries to a non-greasy matte finish designed to reduce surface oil and act as a smooth base beneath makeup. Its lightweight texture helps keep foundation from sliding and minimizes midday shine, so touch-ups may be needed less often.

• Matte, oil-control finish ideal for combination or oily skin types
• Lightweight, fast-absorbing cream that layers under makeup
• Non-greasy feel helps maintain foundation wear throughout the day

How often should I apply it and where does it fit in my routine?

Use this moisturizer morning and evening after cleansing and any treatment serums, particularly those containing active ingredients. In the morning, it can act as your primary daytime moisturizer and primer; at night it hydrates while supporting mild exfoliation and pore clearing.

• Apply after cleansing and toning, before sunscreen or makeup in the AM
• Use after treatments like serums containing actives in the PM
• Suitable for daily use; adjust frequency if irritation occurs

Who is this for: DERMA E Acne Oil-Control Matte Face Moisturizer is intended for people with combination to oily skin who want hydration without shine, those managing congested pores or occasional breakouts, and anyone seeking a cruelty-free, vegan option that layers well under makeup. If you have extremely dry or sensitized skin, consider patch testing or alternating with a richer, more emollient cream.
