Mattifying hyaluronic acid serum for oily and combination skin
Oily or combination skin has a paradoxical problem: more sebum doesn’t automatically mean more moisture. Often the opposite is true — the skin produces extra oil because it experiences dehydration from within. Classic mattifying products worsen this pattern by drying out the skin, resulting in sebum rebound and an even shinier T-zone.
The DermaQuest B5 Moisture Matte breaks this cycle. This lightweight serum delivers intensive hydration through 30% hyaluronic acid and panthenol, while the formula also leaves a mattifying finish. No drying ingredients, just balanced skin — hydrated and shine-free.
Benefits
- Intensively hydrates with 30% hyaluronic acid without weighing down the skin
- Mattifies shine and reduces the visibility of enlarged pores
- Soothes redness and discomfort often associated with blemishes
- Prevents sebum rebound caused by drying products
- Suitable as a hydrating step under makeup or moisturizer
Active ingredients
Hyaluronic Acid 30% (sodium hyaluronate): A humectant that can hold up to a thousand times its weight in water. At this high concentration, it provides deep hydration to the skin without leaving a greasy film. The crosspolymer form ensures long-lasting effect throughout the day.
Panthenol (provitamin B5): Converted in the skin to pantothenic acid and actively supports skin barrier repair. Panthenol soothes irritation, reduces inflammatory reactions, and enhances the skin’s moisture-binding capacity — essential for combination skin that quickly becomes unbalanced.
Willow Bark Extract (Salix Alba): Naturally contains salicylates with anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties. This ingredient soothes redness around pimples and helps prevent new blemishes without drying out the skin like traditional salicylic acid.
Lilac Stem Cells (Syringa Vulgaris): A plant stem cell extract that regulates sebum production and reduces the visibility of enlarged pores. Research indicates a mattifying effect throughout the day, setting this serum apart from classic hyaluronic acid formulas.
Peptides & centella asiatica: A complex of amino acids (arginine, valine, leucine, lysine, taurine) supports skin firmness, while centella asiatica soothes and enhances the skin's recovery ability — especially valuable for acne-prone skin that regularly experiences irritation.

Frequently asked questions
Is B5 Moisture Matte a serum or a moisturizer?
This is a serum, despite the product name. For oily or combination skin, it may be sufficient as the only hydrating step in warmer months, but for drier or combination skin tending to dryness, a light moisturizer on top is recommended for extra barrier support.
Can I use this serum both morning and evening?
Yes. It is suitable for both AM and PM use. Many people with oily skin need the mattifying effect most during the day, but in the evening the serum supports the skin barrier's recovery.
Does this also work after using the Universal Clarifying Pads?
Yes, in fact: this combination is recommended from the DermaClear line. The pads cleanse and exfoliate, the serum soothes and hydrates afterwards — a coordinated duo for blemished and hydrated skin.
Is this serum suitable under makeup?
Certainly. The light, fast-absorbing texture and mattifying finish make it a pleasant base under foundation. Let it fully absorb before continuing with your makeup routine.
