This Editor-Approved Moisturizer Is Finally Back In Stock

It's a common misconception that oily skin doesn't need moisturizer. While I totally get the thought process, it's simply untrue. In fact, skipping your moisturizer when you're feeling oily can actually cause your skin to produce even more oil to compensate for the lack of hydration.

Many popular gel moisturizers leave your skin feeling great in the moment but then lead to dryness later in the day, which can trigger even more oil production (yikes!). The Farmacy formula avoids this issue by combining a variety of oily-skin-friendly hero ingredients in one product. These include:

Niacinamide: Arguably one of the best ingredients for combating excess oil, niacinamide has been shown to significantly lower sebum excretion rates after two to four weeks of use1. As sebum production levels out, you'll experience less shine. 

Hyaluronic acid + polyglutamic acid: These buzzy ingredients work alongside glycerin to pull water into the skin and give a hydrated (but not oily) appearance. They're also classified as humectants, which means the Daily Greens Moisturizer will help pull water into the skin. 

Moringa + papaya extract: Moringa has about seven times more vitamin C than oranges2, while papaya extract demonstrates powerful antioxidant properties that contribute to combating oxidative stress in clinical studies3. But unlike other antioxidants delivered in an oil form, these extracts can arrive without the grease-inducing ingredients.

After going through countless bottles, squeeze tubes, and pots of different skin hydrators claiming to be lightweight yet effective, I'm relieved to finally find an option that performs—and I'm not the only one.
