Doesn't cause new breakouts
It is hell trying to find an SPF when you are acne prone. I purchased this on a whim and it seems to working well (and by well, I mean causing no NEW breakouts). I don't think it does much in the "oil control" department, but it doesn't contribute to making it worse. Overall, I'd say it's a safe bet if you are looking for something that isn't going to cause any new acne but will also provide SPF. If I could find something better, I'd happily change though.

Don't hate it, don't love it.
This is a decent product but I would replace it in an instant if I found something better. I like that it has 30 SPF and doesn't leave my face white but this moisturizer does absolutely nothing for my oil. For now this moisturizer will do but I won't miss it when I find something better.

Ehhh...
The product surely feels refreshing when applied, but it also somewhat stings and leaves this oily whiteish finish which I have to rub off. I use it morning and night and it kinda ends up leaving a glowy but more oily kind of look to my face. I currently suffer from Urticaria (chronic hives) around my mouth. The product contains avobenzone which is an Urticaria trigger. I barely have acne so I might change to the Cetaphil Daily Moisturizer SPF 15.

My skin is still oily, no oil control
This feels tacky after applied and doesn't not settle down to a matte finish for me. It looks shiny on my face and a bit later, my face is greasy again. It's not entirely bad. I'm going to use it up, but, I don't think I would repurchase this is my skin is still at it's oily state. I'm on a skin sun sensitizing antibiotic as well and it's kept me free of sunburn or irritation so far.

Good for now!
I really like this as my morning moisturizer! It's very light and not greasy and absorbs really fast with a matte finish. I am on doxycycline hyclate (antibiotic) and it makes your skin sensitive to the sun so I really like that it has spf 30 in it! I use the cetaphil gentle skin cleanser then I apply my Aczone gel, and finish with this. It does seem to control oil too! I will update this review if anything changes

Great product
I've used this for years. I stopped using it when I first started the acne.org regimen to make sure I didn't mess up the system, and now that my skin has been consistently clean, I've added the Cetaphil as the last step in my morning routine. Wash, treat, moisturize, then the Cetaphil on top. I'm very fair skinned, so an SPF 30 is a must.

My favourite daytime sunscreen/moisturiser!!

Pros:

Really great for normal-dry skin!
I would recommend to people with oily skin, i'd say give it a go because it is a really good moisturiser & spf all in one.
Does not irritate if used with BP!

Cons:

It may be a tiny bit greasy for overly oily skin?

I have literally put all my other SPF's to the BACK of my cupboard since using this amazing product! I love to use a SPF during the day because I find my skin gets sunburn sooo easily between my UV fluorescent lights in the house and sunlight coming in. Also from being outside doing daily activities. I mix this with 2-3 drops of jojoba oi and gently rub it on everyday and it never balls up on me either. I seriously recommend this to people using BP, also if you aren't this is a really good product!

Moisturizes Well!

Pros:

SPF 30
Not Greasy
Keeps Away Excess Oil

This moisturizer gets the job done! It really has made my skin softer, while keeping excess oil away. The good thing about this moisturizer is it has SPF 30 in it which is beneficial of you're going to be out in the sun for a while. I use this moisturizer on my face whenever I know I'm going to be out for a while. Most sunscreens feel greasy on my skin, but this one has been amazing. I highly recommend this to people with acne-prone skin, and oily skin!

DIdn't see much oil control

Pros:

Some Oil Control
Easy to apply

Cons:

Fragrance
Break outs
Not enough oil control

I'm an asian male and bought this because I have an oily complexion. After using a for a couple of weeks I didn't notice much control in oil. I also started breaking out so I had to stop using it. It is not fragrance free which I prefer. Currently the Olay moisturizer seems to work the best and I would recommend that one.

I too, did not see much oil control. I can't seem to detect any fragrance nor does the ingredient list say any "parfum".

.

Pros:

Not drying
Rids excess oil
Nice consistency

I really do like this moisturizer. It sort of reminds me of the Olay sensitive skin moisturizer with SPF. I like that it has SPF in it, but the consistency of the product is good, though I'm not sure that it feels as well later on during the day. It doesn't feel thick or anything, like some products containing SPF seem to do. I use this, as well as the foaming cleanser. I feel as if they do a good job of ridding excess oil, without being too drying - which is definitely a plus! I have been testing products in different ways, and have noticed that my makeup seems to look as if it is separating in some places - I haven't been able to tell whether this is because of the moisturizer.. hopefully it is because of something else.
