Should I consider this product if I currently use Paula's Choice HydraLight Moisture-Infusing Lotion?
This is a matter of preference. If you prefer your moisturizer to feel weightless while keeping skin smooth and soft, then Skin Balancing Moisture Gel is for you. Either formula will take care of dry (but not very dry) skin without feeling heavy or occlusive, and both leave skin matte.
My skin is normal, without any really oily or dry areas. Do I need a moisturizer?
Your skin needs the beneficial ingredients found in our formulations. Our state-of-the-art toners can suffice if you don't want to use moisturizer every day. Our Skin Balancing Moisture Gel and HydraLight Moisture-Infusing Lotion are weightless moisturizers that can make you feel like you aren't wearing anything on your face at all.

Great Stuff!
this moisturizer works very well! It's great for my very oily skin. It has an unpleasant scent, though. I was told by the customer service rep that it was because of the raw ingredients. Wish it smelled better but I still really like it.
—Teresa
Paula, you are my new BBF! Even at 51 and going through chemo, my skin is still pretty oily; I love the Skin Balancing Moisture Gel! It is the only product I've ever been able to use without my face being an oily mess! THANK YOU A MILLION TIMES OVER!
—Jane
This is by far the best moisturizer for sensitive, acne-prone, combination skin. Not only does it keep my skin matte far better than anything else I've tried, but it's also effective at reducing redness. Furthermore, I've noticed my acne scars heal much faster than normal. The only downside is that my eyes are too sensitive to use this product around. And I LOVE the new bottle design.
—Peter C.
Thank you Paula. For the first time in my life I have soft feeling, blemish free skin. I use the Skin Balancing Cleanser, Skin Balancing Toner, 2% Beta Hydroxy Acid Gel, and the Skin Balancing Moisture Gel. This is the first time in my life that I have ever used a moisturizer on a daily basis and without fearing breakouts. Thanks for the beautiful new skin and the confidence boost.
—Susan S.
Just had to say the non greasy Skin Balancing Moisture Gel is a dream come true for those of us with acne prone/very oily skin who get dry occasionally! Great product...and also, thanks for the great customer service!
—Beth S.
The Skin Balancing Moisture Gel does exactly what it says. It absorbs within seconds and leaves absolutely no feeling of residue. I am able to moisturize and still have my skin feeling as clean as it did straight out of the shower. It truly is a miracle product for those of us with oily skin.
THANK YOU for yet another wonderful product. You never steer me wrong!
—Lisa S.
Skin Balancing Moisture Gel
This product is wonderful. Lightweight, non-greasy and my skin feels and looks great after application. I now use this as my night cream since you developed the new Skin Mattifying Lotion with SPF 15. These two products are fantastic for oily, blemish prone skin. Keep up the good work.
—Ginny Crawford
Great one
This moisturerizer works great! I'm 24 and have combination skin. It makes my cheeks (tend to be normal and little bit dry during winter) very soft and T-zone very matte. The most perfect moisturerizer for those who have combination skin. No greasynes, no tightness, no dryness. Just good amount of moisture. Highly recommended. I use Skin Recovery Moisturizer for my eye area since they tend to be more dry.
—akiko
Moisture perfect
This is by far the best product for combination skin! My skin changes "type" from oily to dry at all times of the year. This product evens it out perfectly-shine free and flake free!
—Ev
Skin Balancing Moisture Gel
Your Skin Balancing Moisture Gel is the best ever. I spent years searching for exactly this. I've been using it now for about three years. (Please don't ever change it! I would be devastated if it were ever discontinued.)
—Erin
Great for aging oily skin
I have a very oily T-zone, but the rest of my face, not to mention my neck, are getting drier as I age. It was impossible to moisturize the dry areas without adding unwanted oiliness to my T-zone. Finally there is a product I can use all over!
—Clara Pettitt
Almost perfect
I tried the Skin Balancing Moisture Gel, and it is by far the best feeling moisturizer I have tried! It would be perfect if it contained sunscreen! That aside, I will definitely continue using this product!
—Kristin
Moisture Gel
It's a joy to smooth onto my face I only use this one at night and it's the lightest moisture cream I have ever used and never brings me out in spots - thank you! Please bring Paula's Choice to the United Kingdom.
—Shelley Kerr
??
where can u buy this stuff ?
—luke
Incredibly silky!
This gel makes my skin supremely smooth and silky. Amazing!
—Heather
Most comfy for oily/combo skin
Very comfortable for humid weather,use with the mattifying lotion SPF15 for day. Thanks for a product that's also fragrance and colour free!
—Lilian Teo
The perfect moisturizer for my oily skin!
Paula's Choice Skin Balancing Moisture Gel is the absolute BEST moisturizer I've found for oily skin. The texture is smooth, it goes on greaseless and absorbs quickly, reduces redness, and has a slight matte appearance. My skin feels CLEAN and hydrated instead of clogged and weighed down like with other moisturizers.
—Kimberly
So far, so good!
I just starting using this a month ago. In the spring and summer months, I don't need an additional moisturizer at night. Since the winter weather has arrived, though, I thought I would try this and it really is marvelous. Light texture, goes on easily, does not break me out or cause black heads. I also use it on my hands at night and it sinks right in without feeling greasy.
—Patricia
Awesome
I thought all the reviews were posted by employees but then I saw Paula on Oprah (us ladies know to trust Oprah no matter what). I ordered a bunch of samples first to make sure I liked them and... I LOVED THEM!!! They came 2 days after I ordered them and I did standard shipping. I love the cleanser for oily skin the toner, ex foliating gel and moisturizing gel! Just placed my order for the "real" things and cant wait to become a Paula user for life! Will recommend to anyone!
—Kelsey McLellan
Great moisturizer!
I have semi-oily skin and use this product regularly. It doesn't leave my skin feeling oily but leaves it feeling nourished and soothed.
—Janet
The best
I have tried everything and this is wonderful. It feels wonderful on the skin and it absorbs on my skin. Other products that claim to be for oily or combination skin either make me breakout or splotchy.
—Ellen
Great moisturizer!
I have very oily skin and I didn't think this moisturizer would help it at all, but it truly does! I noticed that when I apply the moisturizer in the morning, my skin is about 80% less oily at the end of the day. The gel form applies very well on the skin and does not leave your skin looking oily after applying. My skin is very acne-prone and this moisturizer NEVER breaks me out even when I apply it in the most sensitive areas like my chin. I can just use a little bit to apply to the entire face. Highly recommended!
—Patricia
Great product!
This is so great for those days when I don't really need much added moisture. It evens things out and leaves things so silky and smooth. It is then ready for foundation or even just a dusting of powder.
Great product Paula!!
—Jennifer Alston
Great for Summer!
I loved this product, I think it will be wonderful this summer while its humid and im so oily...not quite enough moisture for me personally all year round when i get a little dryer...but all in all a great product! And it has no smell! Yay!
—Marlene Mounce
nice!
My skin is kind of crazy- oily yet I have eczema and I break out. This moisturizer hasn't upset anything and hasn't turned my face into an oil slick. Good stuff.
—Amanda
LOVE IT!
Perfection in a tube! It's just right for my combination skin! Love it!
—Pat
Great for oily/combination skin!
I have combination skin and this moisturizer is great year round. In the winter I use it all over and in the summer just around my cheeks and eyes. Love its silky feel and it has a very neutral smell.
—Lindsey
Great Summer Aftershave
Great for warm weather aftershave. Put it in the fridge for a while, then apply to newly shaved, damp skin. Heaven :)
—David
best moisturizer for oily skin
This is the only one I can use during the summer on my very oily skin. Perfect for dry spots, doesn't overdo it!
—Joy Cannon
good moisturizer
Excellent mositurizer for oily skin - love the texture and how it melts into my skin!
—Sung Jang
Very good for sensitive skin
I've used this moisturizer for the last few years. I have combination/sensitive skin and the moisturizer works very well, soothing and never clogging pores. It is great if you do not have very dry skin. It's lightweight, doesn't 'melt' in the heat, glides smoothly and wears well under makeup (exception: M.A.C. liquid foundations--both products are great, just incompatible on my skin when together).
In winter I need something a little stronger at times and a combination serum + moisturizer solves that.
—Alessandra
Good Moisturizer
This is a really good moisturizer for oily skin. It has never made me break out, though I do only use it at night, never under makeup because my skin becomes too slick. It's the perfect last step and makes my skin feel great.
—Erin
Caused Bad Reaction!!!
I was looking forward to trying this out but was soo disappointed with my skin reacted to the product and formed dry flaky patches! I know Paula you are not big on La Roche Posay Toleriane but it is the only thing that works on my skin! Now I have to use this on my neck so that I don't waste my money...

Skin Balancing System!
I just got the entire skin balancing system yesterday. In one day - ONE DAY - my skin is less red, I have no flakes or dryness, and my skin seems less oily. In ONE DAY. I'm a believer. Paula, thank you for all that you do. I can't wait to see what my skin looks like in a month. THANK YOU!!!!
—Sharon J.
Not good for truly combination skin
I kept having to apply this lotion over and over and my simultaneously dry and oily/acne-prone skin continued to feel tight and dry. Returned it.
—Cristina
Awesome under foundation
This is a great moisturizer. I have extremely oily skin and this is the ONLY moisturizer I use. I was actually at Sephora the other day and did a big no no. I overheard a girl talking about how terrible her oily skin was and how she cant find a moisturizer for the life of her. I went up to her and told her about this. Its that great. The only complaint I have is they only make it in 2oz. It runs out extremely fast. I would recommend them making a bigger size.
—Kelsey
Love it
I have severe dry eye and can't wear products with sunscreen on my face. This lotion is great for my very oily skin and no sunscreen so my eyes don't flare up!
—Tammy Davidson
great!
This is a wonderful moisturizer for my very oily skin. I convinced my husband to use it too and he also loves it. I only wish it came in a larger size.
—Malina
Life Changing!
I have extremely oily and acne prone skin, and I have searched for years for a moisturizer that leaves a matte finish and doesn't make my face an oil slick. Must have!!!
—Kelly
