So I've been using the above product, and it is the best SPF moisturizer for oily skin (the old formula). Since Olay has changed the formula and made it 100 times worse, does anybody know of another similar product that is just as good for oily skin?

I saw the original formula of the lotion back at Wal-Mart. I also saw the original cream one at Walgreens. It says "Classic gentle formula" or something like that in a green bubble on the corner of the box. I didn't see it for a long while, but now it's back.. sooo If not, you could always order it online? Or another good Olay moisturizer with SPF I've used is; Olay Age Defying (Beta Hydroxy Complex) - SPF15.

Thank you, I've seen that Classic Gentle Formula, but that is the old formula for Sensitive Skin. I'm talking about Olay Complete All Day Moisture Lotion for Combination/Oily skin. That will definitely be the next SPF moisturizer I'll try, though. Do they have it in a lotion or is it just available as a cream? And is it greasy?

Ohh, I didn't read right. I apologize! Have you tried the Sensitive skin one? It comes in a lotion and cream. The Olay Age Defying one is in a lotion. I have very oily skin as well.

Are you talking about the Olay Complete Classic Gentle Formula? No, I haven't tried that one, but I will if I can find it. Are you on the DK Regimen? Because if I try the Age Defying BHA SPF lotion I don't want it to be irritating if I'm using it with BP. The only moisturizer that has actually taken away some of the excess oil on my face has been the old formula of Olay Combination/Oily. I don't understand why Olay didn't bring that formula back along with the Classic Gentle one.

Yeah, that's what I'm talking about. Maybe you should try it (the sensitive one.) A lot of people like it. If you don't like it, you can always return it if you buy it from Wal-Mart, Target, Walgreens, CVS etc.. they all have great return policies. I don't use Dan's BP, but I use Tazorac which can be a lot more irritating. Olay Age Defying seemed gentle, and I have the most sensitive skin. Anywayyy.. I hope I did help you somehow!

Thanks! I guess I'll try that one after my Olay Complete for Combination skin runs out. I still can't believe that when I finally find a perfect SPF moisturizer, it gets discontinued. Has Olay ever heard the saying, "If it isn't broken, don't fix it,"?

By the way, does anybody know the full ingredient list of the Classic Gentle Formula? I've heard that it's not exactly how it used to be, so I want to know what the differences are.
