About PanOxyl Oil Control Moisturizer
PanOxyl AM Oil Control Moisturizer is a 3-in-1 daytime moisturizer specifically formulated for oily and acne-prone skin. It absorbs excess oil for a matte, shine-free finish, nourishes skin with a blend of hyaluronic acid, antioxidants, and caffeine, and protects against UV damage with broad spectrum SPF 30 mineral sunscreen — all in one lightweight, non-comedogenic formula. The active ingredient, zinc oxide (17%), is a mineral UV filter that sits on top of the skin to deflect harmful UVA and UVB rays without the use of chemical active sunscreen ingredients, making it a gentler option for sensitive, oily, and acne-prone skin types. Hyaluronic acid works below the surface to seal in moisture and help skin maintain hydration throughout the day, while bisabolol helps calm the appearance of redness. Green tea extract, caffeine, and vitamin E round out the formula with antioxidant and nourishing benefits that support the skin's natural defenses. Daily SPF use is especially important for those using acne treatments, many of which can increase skin's sensitivity to sun damage. From the makers of the dermatologist-recommended PanOxyl Acne Wash, this moisturizer is designed to keep skin balanced, protected, and comfortable from morning to night.
Key Benefits & Features
- Broad Spectrum SPF 30 Mineral Sunscreen: Zinc oxide (17%) is a mineral UV filter that deflects UVA and UVB rays by sitting on top of the skin rather than absorbing into it. With no chemical active sunscreen ingredients, it is a gentle, dermatologist-recommended option well suited for sensitive, oily, and acne-prone skin.
- Oil Control and Matte Finish: Formulated to absorb excess surface oil and reduce shine throughout the day, leaving a clean, matte finish that helps keep skin looking fresh and balanced without clogging pores.
- Hyaluronic Acid for All-Day Hydration: Sodium hyaluronate works beneath the skin's surface to seal in moisture and help skin retain hydration throughout the day, providing comfort without heaviness or greasiness.
- Antioxidant and Caffeine Nourishment: Green tea extract, caffeine, and vitamin E (tocopheryl acetate) provide antioxidant benefits that nourish the skin and help support its natural defenses against environmental stressors.
- Bisabolol for Calming: Bisabolol is a skin-calming ingredient derived from chamomile that helps reduce the appearance of redness and supports a more even, comfortable skin tone.
- Non-Comedogenic and Lightweight: The formula is lightweight and non-comedogenic, meaning it will not clog pores, making it appropriate for daily use on oily and acne-prone skin types without contributing to breakouts.
- From the Makers of PanOxyl Acne Wash: PanOxyl is a dermatologist-recommended brand trusted for scientifically-proven acne care ingredients. This moisturizer is designed to complement acne treatment routines by providing essential hydration and sun protection.
Who Should Be Using This?
PanOxyl AM Oil Control Moisturizer is designed for individuals with oily, acne-prone, or combination skin who want a daily moisturizer that controls shine, hydrates, and provides sun protection in one step.
