If Clinique Moisture Surge feels greasy on your skin, you might prefer a lighter, oil-free gel formula.
Many reviewers recommend Neutrogena Hydro Boost Gel-Cream as a dupe because it’s also hyaluronic acid–based, oil-free, and absorbs more cleanly without a sheen.
Other good alternatives include gel moisturizers from Korean brands like Isntree Hyaluronic Acid Aqua Gel Cream, which offers lightweight hydration suited for oily or combination skin types.
If you think you can propose better ones to the question presented, we encourage you to offer your opinions.
