The best moisturizer for oily skin in Pakistan is a lightweight, non-greasy formula that hydrates without adding shine — oily skin still needs moisture, and skipping it triggers rebound oil. Here is what works.
What oily skin needs
- Lightweight texture: gel or water-based creams absorb fast without a greasy film.
- Non-comedogenic: will not clog pores — critical on skin already prone to shine.
- Oil-control ingredients: niacinamide helps regulate sebum over time.
The picks
The Trego Moisturizing Cream (around Rs.1,350) works as a light daily layer for normal-oily skin; pair it with the niacinamide Skin Lightening Serum underneath for oil regulation. Dedicated oil-free options like Dermive Oil-Free suit very oily skin — see our Dermive oil-free review.
For the full routine, see skincare routine for oily skin and best toner for oily skin.
How to use it
- Small amount: a pea-sized layer is enough — more adds shine, not hydration.
- Damp skin: apply right after toner; moisturizer locks in more when skin is damp.
- Morning and night: consistent light hydration beats occasional heavy cream.
