"Amazing! I live in windy, harsh weather and this definitely hydrates. It’s light and feels like it’s melting into my skin! Not oily at all and smells AMAZING"
— Zara C. (5/5)
"So I've tried the calm water gel moisturizer and the intensive moisture balance, and this time I tried the active moist and it's the perfect midpoint between the two. It absorbs well but moisturizes without feeling heavy or weighted. Perfect for my peri-dry /combination skin even though I'm usually oily in the summer and I'm no longer flaking by midday. Will be my new go-to. Hopefully it also works for my winter skin."
— Kristin P. (5/5)
"Another good product from dermelogica. But for the price I might skip purchasing a full size."
— Lana (4/5)
"I absolutely love Active Moist. It's lightweight, absorbs beautifully and leaves my skin hydrated without every feeling heavy or greasy. Since using Dermalogica consistently, my skin genuinely looks and feels the best it ever has!"
— Nicole W. (5/5)
"Not really liking this. I have oily/combination skin and every moisturizer for oily skin makes me more greasy. Also, you need to package your products better when shipping. The boxes are always open on the bottom and are not securely wrapped."
— David S. (1/5)
"The first oil free moisturizer I've used that has actually helped with moisturizing my dry areas while not making me greasy. Other gel products sat on top of my skin and made it worse, this one is part of a regimen of dermalogica products I use for my sensitive skin to help maintain my skin barrier. Light but effective hydration, wait 5 minutes before putting on makeup. I use it am and pm."
— Jennifer S. (5/5)
"I have combination skin. Still deal with some break outs and aging (39 years old). This has helped balance out my skin as a base for my other skin care routine!"
— Jessica B. (5/5)
"I use this in the morning because it’s very light and doesn’t make me sweat. I love ALL Dermalogica products."
— Forrest S. (5/5)
"I use active moist moisturizer every morning after cleansing. It feels smooth while nourishing the skin. I have tried other types of moisturizer and always return to this one."
— Christina M. (5/5)
"This is a win. The moisturizer is fantastic! It is a very lightweight but yet gives you maximum moisture. It is non greasy and water based."
— Diana A. (5/5)
