I've been using Aveeno positively radiant daily moisturizer with sunscreen (broad spectrum SPF 15) for about a year.  I'm very pleased with it.  If you try it, make sure you don't get the Aveeno body lotion, but the one I've mentioned above.  Hope that helps.

I usually only have a moisturizer do that if it's too hot or humid inside or if I take a really hot shower. When that's the cause, all my moisturizers will do it because it's not the product, it's the environment. To prevent it, I try to make sure I'm dry from the shower and in a cooler room when I apply my moisturizer. I like to apply my products on freshly washed and slightly damp skin, so if I have to wait to cool down first, I will spray a moisture mist over my dry skin (I keep mine in the fridge, which also helps) and then apply my skincare.

Make sure you buy a product labeled for daytime use, because a heavier moisturizer can be too much during the day, You might want to try one of the gel-creme formulas, like Neutrogena Hydro Boost, which feels cool going on and is light but effective.

I like Neutrogena Deep Moisture Day Cream.  I get it at Walmart.  It has SPF 20.  I like that it is a cream instead of a lotion and it feels light.

Olay Regenerist in the jar. Not the serum. It has a SPF and a sensitive skin formula. This is my favorite drug store brand.

My favorite is the Acure Night cream and I use it day and night. Has a cool, tightening effect and a wonderful lavender smell. Great base for mineral makeup too. I get it when it's on sale on drugstore.com.

Neutrogena.  Check out Amazon ,they have many Neutrogena moistureizers to choose from depending what you need or want or your type skin. I am in love with Neutrogena products.

 

Their new hydro-"gel" or cream  (your choice)  is wonderful  , as is their "all natural" line.  Smiley Happy

olay regenerist in the red pump bottle. it has spf, easy to apply, no shine, and inexpensive. for nighttime, I use the the same variety, but in the red tub and its micro sculpting. I have super sensitive combination skin but never had any problems with either.

My favorite has always been 

OLAY COMPLETE ALL DAY MOISTURIZER WITH BROAD SPECTRUM SPF 15. Nice and light, never greasy.  However, I need a higher spf so now I'm searching for something 30+ and physical (not chemical) that won't be pasty or greasy.

I have been using Olay Complete moisturizer for many years.  I am over 50 with very oily skin and this does not make me sweaty or more oily.
