Combination skin can be sometimes very tricky to handle. Skincare that hydrates keep the oil under control as well as works to treats it by preventing congestion and improve the skin quality – is all that is needed for combination skin. With all these expectations from a line and using it since last month, I am going to give some description of the products as well as my review and experience with them. Sisley Paris Purifying Re-balancing Lotion and Sisley Paris Mattifying Moisturizing Skin Care are both suitable for combination to oily skin types. For your reference, I have combination skin that is prone to congestion.

My Thoughts on Purifying Re-balancing Lotion
I have been using Purifying Re-balancing Lotion since last month after cleansing my face. I apply the lotion on my face and neck with a cotton pad and then follow with my serum or moisturizer. Since I started using it, I noticed my skin is clearer and healthier. I do not have much problem with shiny areas on the face and it also did not overly mattify it, but more of clearer and smoother skin. I have noticed no congestion and breakouts. The redness which I had due to my breakouts a few weeks back, is reduced and less visible. It does have a subtle scent that fades away fast but it nothing like alcohol or an astringent kind of smell. My skin looks healthier overall. Buy Purifying Re-balancing Lotion HERE.
Sisley Paris Mattifying Moisturizing Skin Care with Tropical Resins
Sisley Paris Mattifying Moisturizing Skin Care is described as a daily moisturizer for a combination to oily skin types. It acts at three different levels of the skin to provide moisturizing, mattifying and purifying effects to the skin. Apart from the key ingredients mentioned above for the Purifying Rebalancing Lotion, Mattifying Moisturizing Skin Care also includes Marshmallow extract to moisturize the skin by delivering molecules able to retain water, bamboo water to mattify, Burdock extract to purify and rebalance, plant-origin glycerin that moisturizes and softens.

My Thoughts on Mattifying Moisturizing Skin
I have been using Mattifying Moisturizing Skin Care every morning and most of the nights too since last month straight after Purifying Rebalancing Lotion or follow with my serum and then this moisturizer. I feel it is a nice moisturizer, I do not feel any dryness or dehydrated skin but nice moisturized skin with no oiliness. My skin feels very soft and comfortable. Using this with Purifying Rebalancing Lotion, I have no congestion for the last two or three weeks. With skin in the hands of these two products, it is healthier and clearer. It does mattify the skin but to the extent that it looks radiant and luminous but not oily. When I use this during the mornings, I have not experienced any rolling off of makeup or anything, everything goes on smoothly over it and stays intact. Buy the moisturizer HERE.
Purifying Re-balancing Lotion and Mattifying Moisturizing Skin Care have really kept my congestion under control, keeping it healthier and radiant. The breakouts which I had when I started using this, did not get bigger but they healed quickly. Both the products are a nice size for everyday use and can be perfect travel companions too. I am glad I did use them for a good amount of time to give you this update. My skin seems calmer now. As winter is coming now, I would rather start cheating with this moisturizer for something more hydrating. If you have very oily skin, you can stick to this one.
