    Sounds like combination skin like me :) I've just finished La Roche Posay Effaclar Mat and I liked it. Gel consistency, controlled oil throughout the day, and helped with dry patches.

    Only issue with it (and it isn't really a complaint), is that it absorbs so easily that you end up going through a tube in about a month and a half. It's on offer in Boots (3 for 2, it was 2 for 20 euro though so that offer was insanely good considering one tube is about 17 euro). Most moisturisers I had tried before it used to sit on the skin for a while before the finally absorbed, but my skin seemed to drink this right up.

    I'd also recommend trying rosehip oil too. I've been using it for about a week now and I haven't had a single dry patch despite the freezing weather.

    I'll second that, I have oily skin but my chin gets dry from time to time. Got that and Effaklar K in the 2 for €20 thing (didn't want to get 2 of the same thing in case I didn't like it). Effaklar K doesn't sink into the skin quite as quickly but is lasting a bit longer so far as I need less of it.

    I had a different La Roche Posay one years ago too but haven't been able to find it since :( Their stuff is good though.
