Sebum Control Hydra Gel: Hydration & Shine Control for Oily Skin with Aquaxyl, Farnesol, Probiotics Lysate (17 g)

Very good hydra gel.feels light, absorbs quickly, and doesn’t feel heavy even in the humidity. Over time, I noticed my skin looking brighter, more even, and refreshed

As a mature adult, the days of a shiny skin should be long behind me, but although vastly improved, it's never that matte I always wanted. I still get a slightly shiny forehead and nose and I've tried all sorts of oil-control type moisturisers 'for Men' with variable-to-no success. The notion of adding moisture when I'm looking for 'drier' always seemed odd to me. Here were have a product for Sebum Control which seems to be just right. I'm not familiar with the ingredients but Farnesol 'helps to control and balance sebum production by regulating the activity of oil-producing glands in the skin'. Farnesyl Acetate 'helps rebalance the skin's lipid metabolism, leading to a significant and sustained reduction in sebum secretion.' Those two alone sound fine and it's worth going down the ingredients list to get the complete picture. Nicely presented in its green scheme, the neat 80x30mm plastic container is a rather unusual 17 grams, or 0.6 ounces and has a pump dispenser with a 2mm or so hole. The slightest press dispenses an off-white, slightly viscous gel, which spreads very easily and doesn't take long to disappear into the skin. Experimenting with half my forehead, I can see an improvement after just a few days, though it's not going to be any permanent fix, but as long as it works as I need it too, it's well worth the £5.98.

J’ai la peau grasse et vraiment ce produit fait bien son travail. J’ai pourtant essayer d’autres produits bien plus cher. Après je n’ai pas regardé la composition mais il est vraiment très efficace

I’ve been using this sebum control hydra gel for a while now, and overall it’s been a helpful addition to my skincare routine. The lightweight gel texture absorbs quickly without leaving any sticky or heavy residue, which is a pleasant surprise for something aimed at oily skin. My face feels hydrated yet fresh, and it keeps shine at bay for much of the day. The gel seems to strike a good balance between calming oil and maintaining moisture. My skin looks smoother and less irritated, and the clarity of its texture makes it easy to apply. That said, the oil control effect can vary depending on my skin’s condition—on extra humid days my forehead still betrays a bit of shine by mid-afternoon. It’s not a deal-breaker, just a minor quirk to watch for. All in all, it’s a solid and gentle hydrating product that packs subtle shine control and makes my skin feel comfortable without weighing it down.

This under eye gel absorbs quickly and makes my eyes look less tired in the morning. It’s become a must-have in my skincare routine!

It's lightweight, oil-free, and won't clog pores, making it perfect for daily use
