Moisturizing & Mattifying Sebum Control Emulsion La Roche-Posay Effaclar MAT 40 ml

I have tried many creams for oily skin to moisturize and mattify, but this one is the best. It would be great if the manufacturer made this product in a pump. It would be more convenient.

I use it during the summer, when my skin has maximum oily shine, and this product effectively mattifies the skin, providing a good base for makeup without causing any irritations.

I have seborrheic dermatitis, and I bought this product based on the description, and I am very satisfied. There is a noticeable result after the first use. I am happy with it, and it is also convenient to apply makeup afterwards. Thank you, Makeup, for the gift. I will definitely order more.

Waste of money!!! After using this cream, I experienced breakouts and internal pimples. I absolutely do not recommend it.

Awful product. After just one day of use, I experienced irritation in my nasal passages that I have been unable to alleviate for several days now.

I consistently order this product as it suits my sensitive facial skin perfectly.

The only cream that suits me. I have combination skin at 40+, with pores in the T-zone, oiliness appearing in the middle of the day, and uneven skin tone. I apply it over a peptide serum, and when I use this cream, the foundation goes on very smoothly and imperceptibly. My face doesn't get oily for almost the entire day! It evens out my skin tone and makes my pores less noticeable. I keep coming back to this cream. Unfortunately, I've tried other creams, more expensive ones and ones made in Ukraine. This cream is the solution to all my problems. I will be ordering it for the 6th time. I use it at night, either with effaclar duo+ or with Vichy collagen cream.

I didn't like it, it doesn't mattify.

My favorite daily care for many years. First of all, this cream completely mattifies and evens out the skin tone, allowing me personally to avoid using additional makeup, while also providing good moisturization. Long-term use has significantly minimized my pores. I highly recommend it, especially for those with oily or combination skin, or anyone who wants to achieve a matte skin effect without makeup.

I have oily skin, so my main requirement was for a mattifying effect, but it only lasts for about half an hour (maybe it will be different in another season).

Apart from that, everything is great - it feels pleasant on the skin (no tightness or "film" sensation), absorbs quickly, moisturizes, and has a pleasant scent.

I really liked it, bought it for a teenager, very nice texture, skin has improved.

I have been using this brand for many years because I have problematic skin. I decided to try this cream because I've been struggling with oily skin. It does a decent job of mattifying the skin, BUT it tends to roll off after application, regardless of whether I use it with or without foundation, and regardless of how much I apply. I do not recommend it for those who have breakouts! It will only make them worse and clog the pores. I had completely clear skin for about six months, but as soon as I started using this cream, breakouts began. I gave my skin time to adapt to it, but it didn't get any better. So, draw your own conclusions.. Thank you, Makeup, for the fast delivery!

I have been using this product for several weeks now, after the cleansing gel from this series. I am satisfied with the overall effect. After about 6 hours, there is some shine, but not as much as before. It does not cause itching or redness, even though I have sensitive skin.

The cream is not bad. I have oily skin, so my main concern was mattifying. After applying the cream, my skin doesn't get as oily as quickly, but it's not anything fantastic, the oily shine still persists.

Thank you, Makeup, for the fast delivery.

I really like this product. My skin is problematic, combination, and currently dehydrated. The emulsion mattifies very well, and the effect lasts quite long. However, during the winter period, I feel like it doesn't provide enough moisture for me. After applying the product, my skin feels smooth and pleasant to touch.

Great as a makeup base.

I already have experience using similar matte products from different brands.
This cream has an effect of about 4 out of 5.
It is pleasant to apply and economical. It works well with makeup and does not roll off.
However, I will switch back to another cream when this one runs out because it works better.

This is a great product, probably the only one that helped me get rid of pimples and breakouts during critical days. I use it as a makeup base and generally have very few problems with oiliness of the skin. However, the results won't be immediate. The noticeable effect will come after about a month of use.

I purchased this makeup cream and it does a good job of mattifying. However, it doesn't moisturize too well, and the most important thing is that my skin stings for the first 30 minutes after applying it. I've tried cleansing and toning my skin beforehand, but it still stings. I do not recommend it.

I really liked this cream! It keeps me from getting shiny throughout the day, and I even apply a layer of foundation on top. With this, my skin looks good all day long, and I no longer need to carry oil-absorbing sheets with me.

I have combination skin that is prone to oiliness and breakouts (especially during PMS). I purchased the entire effaclar line for problem skin. I am satisfied with the products. Within two weeks, I have seen significant results. However, after using the cleansing gel and pore-tightening lotion, or the effaclar DUO cream, my skin feels tight and requires moisturization. If I use regular facial moisturizers, it looks oily. This Moisturizing Mattifying Emulsion solved this problem for me. It's truly a discovery for me and a must-have in my cosmetic collection. It eliminates skin tightness and provides a great matte finish without leaving a greasy shine.
Of course, throughout the day (especially in hot weather), my face becomes oily again, so I use thermal water, which also works well for this issue.
I don't know how I managed without these products before. I am very satisfied with the results.

I bought the Effaclar cleansing gel, toner, and Duo cream. It stings. I have slightly oily skin with enlarged pores and some pimples. Well, I thought that this medicinal effect was worth enduring... I have never had an allergy to any products before! It stings and turns red, like inflammation. I got this cream, thinking it would moisturize and reduce inflammation. Oh boy... This one stings too! My skin has never reacted to anything before! My question to the manufacturers is, why do these products sting? Is this normal? I understand that no one will refund the money now, and 1500 is a lot for me, it's a shame.

I am satisfied with this product. It mattifies well without making my skin feel tight. However, it may not be suitable for dry and normal skin, although I could be mistaken.

Effective, it truly reduces oily shine, doesn't clog pores, and doesn't cause breakouts. I would prefer a larger size. I use it with the toner from the same line and the Cerave gel (although many say that the toner is aggressive and contains alcohol and other things, it is the only one that, when used together, helped me get rid of breakouts).

Decent cream, but not so great in hot weather. Better for nighttime use.

I received and tried it. It is lightweight and pleasant. It didn't last all day for me, by the evening it started to smudge... But I have the same issue with any other product. I will keep an eye on it.

The product has a lightweight texture and provides good moisturization. However, it doesn't leave the skin with a greasy shine for a considerable amount of time. It works effectively throughout the day, and the effects are satisfactory.

Great cream. It mattifies the skin well, but only for a short time. I mostly use it at night with toner and serum, and in the morning, my skin feels silky. It eliminates breakouts and doesn't cause new ones.

The cream applies smoothly and doesn't roll off (I apply a pea-sized amount on my cheeks and chin, and a small amount on my forehead and nose). The foundation applies well and leaves the skin feeling soft to the touch.

I purchased this cream with the hope of getting rid of the shine on my face caused by the same brand's sunscreen. I thought it would moisturize and provide sun protection, but unfortunately, it did not work out. My skin did not respond well to it; it became irritated and dry.

I purchased this cream based on reviews. I really like it, especially under makeup. The only downside is that there is so little of it.

Great cream, absorbs instantly, pleasantly nourishes the skin, and works amazingly as a moisturizer before applying makeup. The foundation goes on perfectly afterwards. I am currently using La Roche-Posay Effaclar Duo+, applying it at night. I haven't noticed any difference, both creams are equally fantastic.

I really liked this cream, just like many other products from the Effaclar line. HOWEVER, I highly recommend EFFACLAR DUO more as it not only mattifies better but also effectively combats imperfections.

I am extremely satisfied with this emulsion! It even works well for my 35+ skin. It leaves my face feeling pleasantly smooth, with reduced irritation and even the disappearance of dryness and cold spots. The mattifying effect is present, but not excessive, although it may not be suitable for very oily skin. It is also quite economical. I have been using it for two months now and I am very pleased.

I really liked this cream. I have normal skin that tends to get oily in the T-zone. It effectively dries out any excess oil without making my skin feel tight. It gives a smooth and velvety feeling, and my skin stays matte for a long time. It's easy to apply and has a minimal scent. I'm satisfied with it!

I didn't really like it, as my skin became oily just an hour after applying.

I really liked this cream. It truly mattifies, and it lasts throughout the whole day. I highly recommend it for those with oily skin and enlarged pores!

The best product I have ever used on my face! Usually, about 3 hours after washing my face, it starts to shine as if it has been greased, but thanks to this miraculous product, only a subtle glow is visible towards the evening. I really liked it! I ordered it here and will definitely order more in the future.

Unfortunately, this product did not work for combination skin at all. It feels like a film on the skin and then simply rolls off. It clogs pores after just 3 uses. It's a shame, but it's a waste of money.

This cream deserves all 5 stars, as it worked perfectly for my combination skin, moisturizing it without leaving any greasy shine and absorbing quickly. It even managed to significantly dry out breakouts overnight. I use the Effaclar gel cleanser, pore minimizing lotion, this cream, and the thermal water, all from La-Roche Posay.

I have seborrhea around my nose, and this cream helps maintain my skin in a normal condition without the need for special ointments. This is already the third time I am ordering it! It moisturizes excellently, isn't sticky, and is perfect for the summer!

This is an excellent cream that I use for both myself and my husband. It mattifies the skin really well and also helps to minimize pores. I like to use it in combination with the cleansing gel foam for a complete skincare routine.

The pores are tightened, but the oily shine still remains, even when using the entire set of gel/lotion.

I didn't buy it here, it does tighten the pores, but it didn't work for mattifying. After just an hour or so, my face was oily again. Maybe with regular use, the situation will change, I'll test it out.

I bought this cream based on the reviews, but personally, it doesn't work for me and doesn't fulfill its purpose. My skin remains oily, and my forehead still shines. It's a pity I wasted my money on it.

I really like this cream. I have combination skin with breakouts, and this cream effectively mattifies and moisturizes my skin.

The product effectively mattifies the skin, but only temporarily. After the first use, breakouts appeared. I thought it was a coincidence, but after trying it a few more times, it was confirmed. I recommend consulting with a cosmetologist before purchasing it yourself.

Good day.
I have oily skin. I have been testing this product for almost 2 weeks. My skin starts to shine after washing/applying cosmetics/using mattifying wipes after just an hour. This cream extends that period, but not for long, maximum 3 hours.
As for the texture of the cream - it's very pleasant, easy to apply, and feels nice on the skin.
The scent is light.
I use it in the morning, before applying makeup, and it doesn't roll off if given 5-10 minutes to absorb.
It's too early to judge the long-term effects, to understand if the product works or not, at least a month is needed.
I can't blame the cream for the formation of new breakouts, during this period I had some small pimples, but we must not forget about factors like nutrition, skin type, menstrual cycle, etc.
Overall, I rate the cream 5 - it didn't cause any problems, and time will show if it can solve existing issues.

The photos were taken 24 hours after starting to use the product, so the next day. My face broke out after just one application, in places and in a way that has never happened before! I have combination skin and I am 35 years old. The mattifying effect lasted only 1 hour on my skin.

I won't criticize this product, it simply didn't work for me. Before this, I used DUO+ for a year and had no complaints. Yes, it's a shame to have wasted money, but there is no other way than to buy and try different products. (I bought the cream at a pharmacy).

Not "wow," but very good! It mattifies and leaves the skin soft and moisturized without any shine. As a base, it's fine, it slightly minimizes the appearance of pores without clogging them. However, it doesn't provide a completely matte finish for the whole day.
