Toleriane Double Repair Matte Moisturizer

This moisturizer has been a great addition to my skincare routine, especially after applying retinoids. As someone with oily, acne-prone skin, I find it excellent for my skin type. The inclusion of ceramides helps my skin glow, while niacinamide works on lightening. It’s also affordable, which is a bonus for a product I’ve used for a long time.

However, despite claims of being lightweight and non-greasy, I find it to be the opposite. It feels quite heavy on my skin, making it very shiny and a bit greasy. I’m not sure if I might be applying too much, but the texture is definitely heavier than expected. Overall, I’m satisfied with its performance, but the heaviness makes it less comfortable to wear.

Esta crema hidratante de La Roche-Posay ha sido una excelente adición a mi rutina de cuidado facial. Tengo piel grasa, lo que me ha hecho dudar al probar nuevas cremas hidratantes en el pasado, ya que la mayoría tienden a dejarme la piel aún más brillante. **Sin embargo, esta crema me sorprendió gratamente**, ya que tiene un **acabado mate que realmente funciona**.

A pesar de ser hidratante, **no es nada grasosa**, lo cual es un alivio para quienes sufrimos de exceso de brillo en la piel. La textura es ligera y se absorbe rápidamente, dejando mi rostro con una sensación fresca y sin residuos pegajosos. Me gusta mucho cómo mi piel queda después de aplicarla: **hidratada, pero sin ese brillo indeseado** que otras cremas pueden dejar.

Recomiendo esta crema ampliamente si tienes piel grasa o mixta y buscas algo que realmente **controle el brillo sin comprometer la hidratación**. Además, es ideal como base para maquillaje, ya que al ser mate, ayuda a que el maquillaje se mantenga por más tiempo sin que aparezca el brillo típico. ¡Estoy encantada con esta crema!

I switched to this face wash combo after using a higher end brand and have not had and breakouts. I get so much more with this brand than I do with the higher end ones and still have great results. My skin feels soft and hydrated, worth every penny for this face wash/moisturizer.

Matte finish, doesn’t clog pores, effective, leaves skin soft and clear. Great moisturizer and value for money. A little goes a long way as well, so longevity is good.

First, I want to say that this lotion doesn’t have a bothersome smell or consistency. The texture is nice, and it feels light and soothing during application. It hasn’t irritated my skin, burned my eyes (I won’t use products that do that, to include sunscreens!), or caused me any irritation or acne. It’s a good value.

I also have normal to combo skin for the most part. Sometimes I turn into a total grease slick during the hot, humid months, but for the most part, my oiliness is typically in my T zone. I do use some mattifying cosmetics occasionally, but I tend to prefer a more dewy moisturizer. Sometimes I use thicker creams, but for normal day use, I usually put on regular Cetaphil (light consistency) or a tinted moisturizer with SPF, and sometimes at night I will put on a thicker moisturizer such as CeraVe cream, IT cosmetics Miracle, or even a thicker cica cream. Depends on actives, weather, and overall skin factors.

This stuff is MATTE. I was actually surprised how matte it got because it went on lovely like a light gel moisturizer. No more than 10 minutes later, I looked in the mirror and all the luster had left my skin. I kind of looked waxy. Okay, not kind of… I looked like I was ready for Madame Tussauds newest exhibit. It is pretty odd. It didn’t feel bad or anything, and now that I evaluate it more for this review, I also felt like my skin was made of wax. I did wear it all day with no issues, but I think if I wore this daily, it would have a very drying effect which I don’t deal with at all in a moisturizer.

I’m not striving for the slicked, “glowy” look all the time. If I want a more dewy glow, I still mattify my T zone with primers or powder. I don’t find all that gleam and grease glow to be flattering. So, I have tried to just use this on my T zone. It worked out better, honestly, but it still felt a little drying. I applied a thicker cream at night so I wouldn’t dry out. I’ve also tried it with a more dewy foundation, and still had the same effect.

I am considering mixing it with something else just so it doesn’t go to waste. I have no desire to “waxify” the skin on my body, so that’s out. I really wish I liked it more, but I’m just not there yet. Maybe I never will be.

Llevo usándola aprox un mes y con muy poca cantidad logras una aplicación del rostro completo, me gusta mucho la textura es como en gel, me deja la piel muy fresca y no me ha sacado ningún granito, la recomiendo mucho, yo uso los sueros de la misma marca y hacen un match perfecto, no se levantan como “bolitas” o residuos cuando aplicas el bloqueador , yo uso el de la misma marca regularmente pero si he usado de otras y no he tenido peoblema. La recomiendo mucho no deja sensación grasosa y el tamaño es bastante bueno, es una cantidad buena de producto. Vale la pena.

Very nice moisturizer. Really makes my face look and feel smoother and softer without leaving a shine.
