One of the most common things I get asked as a beauty journalist is to recommend a decent moisturiser that doesn't cost a fortune, or exacerbate oily or dry skin.

Olay Total Effects 7in1 Fragrance Free Moisturiser Olay Total Effects 7in1 Moisturiser With SPF 30 Olay Total Effects Face Cream Skin Care Set As much as I love a luxurious, creamy, rich moisturiser to elevate my skincare routine, it’s often not worth spending upwards of £50, especially with rising costs.
There are plenty of budget brands like that don't compromise on quality despite their cheaper price tags. This all-in-one daily moisturiser sells out regularly and is often an and I can easily see why, here's why I was super impressed with the budget-friendly buy. 🛍️ : ⏰ : Two weeks ⭐ 5/5 It's hydrating for dry skin but not greasy or heavy for oily skin, is very affordable and feels luxurious : If you have very oily skin this may be too heavy for daytime use 💰 Get it at reduced from £16.

While I chose , as that's a common irritant for people like myself with sensitive skin, the lack of SPF means that if you do use this moisturiser during the day, do be sure to put a facial SPF on top before going out to avoid sun damage (I really rate ). If you don't mind scented products, then there is also a that does also contain SPF 30 and is just over £9 right now.
This fragranced version is a bargain and has SPF 30. Despite its lovely gel-cream texture, it isn't fast-absorbing — nor does it claim to be — so if you're planning to wear make-up I would make sure your skin is fully dry, give it five minutes before going in with your foundation to avoid any pilling.

After two weeks, my typically textured areas, like my cheeks, had a much smoother appearance. If you're looking for an affordable moisturiser that won't irritate sensitive skin, aggravate rosacea or acne, it's a fantastic option. That said, given it's creamy texture, if you have very oily skin, you may find this a tad too heavy for everyday use.
