Final Verdict:

Honestly I am scared of emollient creams mainly because of they tend to clog pores and cause breakouts which is why I tend to stick to gel formulations.But with demands of winter season and acne treatments,I needed a heavy duty moisturiser which is oil-free,non-comedogenic and heals all dryness/flakiness.So finally Sebamed moisturising cream came to that rescue.I was really surprised on how well it fared.Though it is heavy-duty moisturiser,it feels like light weight moisturiser.It does not clog pores or causes breakouts.It is does not make skin greasy or oily so it can be used all year round,just not winters.Definitely one of the best moisturisers I have used for oily-acne prone skin.Will I repurchase?-Surely,I am already on to my second tube!Overall I am happy with the product,I would say go for it!
