Q: How do you stop this from pilling when anything is applied over it ?? I have tried several sunscreens, including La Roche-Posay, and everything pills...

submitted by quentinsmom - 4 years ago
  • A: We are so sorry to hear about the issue you are having with your new product. At times, if this very hydrating moisturizer is layered under or over another hydrating skincare product that has not fully absorbed into skin, it can cause the moisturizer to ball up or “pill”. To help avoid this, we recommend allowing the first product you apply in your skincare routine to fully dry and absorb into skin until it feels dry to the touch before layering on the next product. We would love to be able to provide further information and recommendations for your specific issue - please feel free to call La Roche-Posay's Customer Care Center at 800.946.4459 M-F 9a-5:30p ET and provide the ref #18477766 so that we can best assist you.

Q: Is this vegan and cruelty free?

submitted by WatchDominion - 5 years ago
  • A: Hi there - Thank you for reaching out. The L'Oréal Group, which includes La Roche-Posay, has always made our consumers’ health and safety an absolute priority. As is the support of animal welfare. L’Oréal has developed a very rigorous safety evaluation procedure of its products, backed by research. Well before the question of animal testing was raised by civil society or within a regulatory framework, L’Oréal has been committed to new methods of assessing safety that don’t involve animals. A true pioneer, L'Oréal has been reconstructing human skin models in laboratories to elaborate invitro safety tests since 1979, as an alternative to animals. In 1989, L’Oréal completely ceased testing its products on animals, 14 years before the regulation required so.

Q: Does this product protect against the sun at all? If so, what is the SPF?

submitted by myvatn - 6 years ago
  • A: Hi there! This product does not come with a SPF. If you are looking for a sunscreen for oily or acne prone skin, we suggest trying our Anthelios Clear Skin Oil Free Sunscreen SPF 60! Advanced protection absorbs pore-clogging oil, even in heat and humidity, and won't cause breakouts. This oil free sunscreen has a dry touch texture and is formulated with Cell-Ox Shield® technology: broad spectrum UVA/UVB protection with antioxidants. We hope this is helpful!

    I’ve been using La Roche-Posay Effaclar MAT for a few weeks now, and honestly, it’s been a solid addition to my routine. I have combination skin that gets oily throughout the day, especially in the T-zone, so I was looking for something that could keep the shine under control without feeling heavy or clogging my pores. The texture is super light — kind of a gel-cream that absorbs really quickly. No stickiness, no greasy layer, just a soft, almost velvety finish. I love that I can apply it and move straight on to makeup without waiting around. It doesn’t make me matte all day (let’s be real), but it definitely helps reduce that midday shine and keeps my skin looking a bit more balanced. Packaging is basic but clean — just a white tube with a small nozzle, which I actually prefer. Easy to throw in a bag, and I don’t have to worry about pumps breaking or anything leaking. The scent is very subtle. Slightly fresh, maybe a tiny bit clinical, but it fades fast. I don’t love scented products, so I appreciated how minimal this one is. As for the results, I wouldn’t say it’s a miracle worker, but it does what it promises: keeps things matte (within reason), hydrates just enough, and makes pores look a little smoother. I’d definitely recommend it if you have oily or combo skin and want something lightweight for daily use. Probably not moisturizing enough if you’re dry, though.

    This is a really nice moisturizer. It leaves my skin feeling soft but not greasy. And, as the name says, it dries with a nice matte finish. For my combination skin, this and the Toleriane Double Repair Matte Face Moisturizer SPF 30 for Oily Skin, are the best moisturizers I've ever used. TY La Roche-Posay!

    I have combination skin and every moisturiser I bought left me shiny within an hour, making my foundation slide off my face. I've spent a fortune on foundations, creams, primers and blotting powders. I would have to take blotting powder everywhere with me and continually re-apply to my t-zone. I know this says it is for oily skin, but I have been using it for 2 weeks morning and night and my skin feels soft and smooth and it hasn't dried out my cheeks. It makes a difference with shine, I have ditched the blotting powders now and my make-up lasts a lot longer. I wouldn't say it stops shining completely but it has made a huge difference. I am so impressed I am now buying a lot of the other products in the range including the foundation and hoping that I am equally as impressed. It is a good base for your make-up and you only need a small amount.

    I like it much better than the original. However, it needs SPF! I live in Florida and it's always sunny. My oily skin needs this but the sun says I need SPF.
    1 reply from Consumer Care Center team - 6 months ago
    Hello there Michelle V! We appreciate your feedback on the Effaclar Mat Moisturizer and are glad you prefer it over the original formula! You're absolutely right about the importance of SPF, especially in sunny Florida. While Effaclar Mat itself doesn't contain SPF, we highly recommend incorporating a separate sunscreen into your routine. Layering a dedicated sunscreen over your moisturizer is crucial for optimal sun protection. We offer several sunscreens within the La Roche-Posay Anthelios line that are specifically formulated for different skin types, including oily skin. You can explore these options to find one that complements Effaclar Mat and provides the broad-spectrum protection you need.
