Kiehl's Ultra Facial Oil-Free Moisturizer — Oil-Control Gel-Cream for Oily to Normal Skin, 5.07 fl oz, 24H Hydration

This oil-free gel moisturizer blends fast-absorbing hydration with a fresh, cooling sensation to help skin feel balanced and breathable. Formulated with glycerin and glacial glycoprotein, it aims to lock in moisture without adding excess oil or clogging pores. The fragrance-free, non-comedogenic formula is designed for everyday use morning and night and is suitable for both men and women with oily to normal skin.

How does this gel-cream control shine without drying the skin?

The moisturizer uses humectant-driven hydration to pull and hold water in the skin while remaining oil-free, so it replenishes moisture without leaving a greasy residue. A cooling, fast-absorbing gel texture helps skin feel mattified and comfortable throughout the day.

• Oil-free gel-cream texture absorbs quickly.
• Glycerin attracts and retains moisture for balanced hydration.
• Leaves a fresh, non-greasy finish that reduces visible shine.
• Fragrance-free and non-comedogenic to minimize potential irritation.

Will it help reduce the appearance of pores and last all day?

Regular use can help skin look smoother and pores appear less noticeable by maintaining consistent moisture balance and preventing excess surface oil. The formula is designed to give up to 24 hours of hydration support, helping skin stay comfortable through the day.

• Hydration that supports smoother-feeling skin and less visible pores.
• 24-hour hydration support when applied to clean skin.
• Fast absorption minimizes midday reapplication and shine return.

How do I use it in my daily routine?

Apply a small amount to cleansed skin morning and night, or whenever you need a quick refreshing boost. It layers well under sunscreen and lightweight makeup because it’s designed to absorb rapidly without leaving a sticky film.

• Use after cleanser and serums on dry or slightly damp skin.
• Suitable for use before sunscreen and oil-free makeup.
• Can be used day and night and as needed for cooling relief.
