Olim Naturals Oil Free Moisturizer – Niacinamide Hydration for Oily, Acne-Prone Skin

Hydration that doesn’t feel heavy in Pakistan’s heat

In Pakistan, oily skin is common—but so is dehydration. Heat, humidity, pollution, harsh face washes, and AC can make skin produce more oil while still feeling tight underneath. That’s when moisturizers become frustrating: either they feel greasy and sticky, or they’re too light and your skin feels dry again.

Olim Naturals created this Oil Free Moisturizer for exactly that problem: hydration without shine. It combines niacinamide for balance, hyaluronic acid + humectants for water support, and panthenol for comfort—in a lightweight, everyday texture that sits well under sunscreen and makeup.

If you’re looking for the best oil free moisturizer in Pakistan, or an oil free moisturizer for oily skin, acne-prone skin, and humid weather—this is made to feel clean, smooth, and wearable.

Why This Outperforms Other Oil-Free Moisturizers 

Many “oil-free” moisturizers feel too drying, leading to rebound oiliness and irritation. Others feel light but don’t hydrate enough, so skin stays tight underneath.

This formula focuses on real balance:

• Hydration-first oil-free feel (humectants + hyaluronic acid)

• Lower irritation risk approach (panthenol + barrier support)

• Multi-ingredient synergy for comfort, smoothness, and balanced look

• Long-term results come from daily consistency—and this texture is made to be used daily

How to Use 

AM / PM: Use morning and night.

1. Cleanse and pat skin dry.

2. Apply a small amount to face and neck.

3. Layer sunscreen on top in the morning.

4. If using actives, apply this after your serum for comfort.

5. Reapply if your skin feels tight (especially in AC).

SPF note: If you’re using actives in your routine, daily sunscreen supports better overall skin appearance.
