I use this product every day it is wonderful for moisturizing and spf. This is especially important for me since I work outside. Image is one of my favorite companies for skin care products. Not a bad one yet!
I LOVE THIS SUNSCREEN!! I used to suffer with horrible cystic acne and also have super sensitive skin. After getting an acne facial the esthetician recommended this sunscreen to me. It’s perfect, not too oily and you really only need a small dot!
Bought this cream as a recommendation, easy to apply, only need a small amount, non greasy and absorbs pretty fast. I use it as a moisturiser before put light make up on when it’s really sunny. The scent is fine, nothing strong. The cream is so light, doesn’t make my face shiny at all. Very impressed.
Can’t praise this moisturiser enough. Glides on really lovely over my face and neck, smells luxurious and keeps my oily skin from shining for the best part of the day. I’ve been using it for 3 weeks now and I can’t fault it. Love having matte skin.
This stuff is great. I’ve been trying to find a daily moisturiser with a decent SPF as well as a mattifying effect for a long, long time and tried so many other products with similar claims. This is the one I’m sticking with. It goes on well and keeps skin matte (a big challenge for my oily skin) and protected from the sun. There is a slightly strange scent (like other people have said, reminiscent of bubblegum) but it’s not unpleasant and disappears almost immediately. I highly recommend this to all my follicly-challenged compadres.
All of my skincare products are from the Image line. I don’t walk out of my house without this sunscreen. And you need SO little of it to go a long way! I mean a SMALL amount! So if you’re balking at the price, that fact may help. It is a game changer in the way my skin has looked.
I have very oily skin ans have been on a long mission to find the right mattifying product with spf that didn’t leave me too matte like a chalk board or not matte at all. Having been an user of Murads oil control mattifier spf 15 for many years and the replacement (spf 45) being poor, ive been seeking something else.
After lots of searching and product testing, ive finally found a worthy replacement.
Initially when applied it does go on greasy but after a few minutes it absorbs to a nice matte finish. It smells great. The tube holds a lot of product and I generally cant fault it! Yipee
Image is by miles the best skin care line I’ve ever used. I have VERY sensitive and dry skin and pretty much everything breaks me out, I’ve tried everything under the sun, but Image is the only brand that works
Utilizzo qs crema da almeno due anni e finalmente ho trovato il prodotto giusto x la mia pelle mista che resta opaca ed idratata x tt il gg. Se si aggiunge poi il fatto che protegge dai raggi uva si rasenta la perfezione
I really do love this product. The scent is a little strong for me, but the sun protection is exactly what I want. I was told my face was looking “pasty” as it hadn’t gotten any sun without this (I mean, main goal anyway!) super light & a little goes a long way. Takes a few minutes to soak in but once it does, you feel like you’re wearing nothing.
The thing that keeps its from getting 5 stars is the “matte” feeling. On a scale of 1-10 of oily things, with 10 being a fish swimming in a vat of grease and 1 being how your hands feel after kneading some bread dough, my face is about a 6. When I do active things, it goes up to about a 7. So….pretty oily I would say. I bought this because I tried a matte-finish moisturizer that my friend had that she got from some place that I cant remember and it bothers me. But I wanted something similar. The one she had made my face feel VERY nice and the oily-feeling wasnt really noticeable for about half the day, even more when I wasnt active or sweating at all. This one still makes my skin feel okay, but it still feels too much like normal sunscreen, and the oily-ness came back after only a couple hours. Granted I was pretty active on these last 4 days Ive been using it, so I will continue giving it a chance, but it hasnt worked as well as that first one that I cant remember the name.
Overall, I like that this is 3.2 ounces. Theres plenty in here to last quite awhile. I like that it is SPF 32, because thats always good for your skin. And the scent is fine. The only thing keeping this from 5 stars is that the “matte” feeling doesnt last very long. I might look elsewhere after finishing this product. But luckily, that wont be for awhile.
My Updated Review
September 2017
———————
I used this moisturizer daily for about 2 years, when all of a sudden I developed an allergy to it. This phenomenon isn’t a new one for me and in fact it’s the reason why I primarily use sensitive skin care products. So I can’t really blame the product. It’s me that’s the problem. I’d say that roughly 15% of all the products that I love so much that they become a part of my daily regime, this happens to. I don’t know why it occurs, yet once it does it’s never been reversed…and I’m no longer able to use the product in question. Which is where I’m at presently with the Image Daily Matte Moisturizer…sadly, I can no longer use it. If anyone reading this knows more about why this occurs, I’d love to learn more about it!
So, my ranking of 5 Stars stands, because this is a very good Moisturizer with some great attributes! But, anyone who’s allergy prone to skin care products might develop problems done the road. Incidentally…my main allergic reaction is itching followed by redness from scratching due to the itchiness.
My Original Review
———————–
I’m a first time user and I love this product. I’ve had a lot of problems finding a daily moisturizer that has SPF and that doesn’t cause an allergic reaction or cause breakouts. The consistency going on, to me, is a little runny. But that’s probably because of the way I use it somewhat. But my method yields excellent results…so much so that I can now go makeup-less. That’s a first for me in 50+ years!! I don’t love the scent but I don’t hate it either…it smells like Juicey Fruit gum.
So here’s my foolproof application method. Step 1 is that I use it immediately after washing my face while my skin is still damp. I’d read once that doing so locks in moisture and that you generally get better results if you have dry skin issues so this method does help for that. I, like most other reviewers, have combination skin…but the combinations for me seem to be extreme. Extreme dryness coupled with extremely oily T zone.
Step 2 is that as soon as this dries I followup with tarte Timeless Smoothing Primer, which I didn’t love at first. With the tarte primer I learned that I need to rub it in my hands for a little bit to sort of warm it up…then it applies smoothly. I spend longer than normal rubbing both these in because as I mentioned this moisturizer seems a little runny to me and it needs it. Whereas the primer seems a little ‘unrunny’ sort of thick and pasty and it needs it. But if I do both steps when my skin is a little moist the end result is amazing!!!
I can get by the whole day with my skin staying nicely matte and just generally looking nice with NO MAKEUP!!! Truly amazing! Some have mentioned the price being high,,,but more so for the tinted version I think. This seems reasonably priced to me since I’ve paid twice as much for inferior products. 1 tube for me lasts a very long time. It’s a largish tube that I need to use very little of because of the thinness of its consistency.
