Great, I guess I need to find a replacement for Avene Hydrance Optimale - light moisturiser

So annoyed about this. I spent years and years trying different moisturisers and finally found this Avene Hydrance Optimale UV Legere SPF 20 a few years ago - it's been great, non-oily (I have v oily skin) basically a good base for makeup with spf20.

Now it seems I can't get it any more and there's this 'Emulsion' with SPF 30 that looks almost identical and seems to be doing the same thing, only the reviews all say it's greasy and the old one was so much better, so I'm loath to spend money on it.

Can anyone help recommend a decent lightweight moisturiser with SPF? I usually use a serum first so don't really need much actual moisturiser but do need a base for makeup.

Thanks....

Bumping in case anyone can help!

This used to be my favourite too! The emulsion one is ok but yes a bit greasier.

I now use La Roche Posay Toleriane Ultra Fluide. Very light.

Thanks so much! It doesn't look like that spf, do you use a separate one or not bother?

I don't usually bother but I have a tinted moisturizer with SPF if I need it.

Good luck, it's so frustrating when you find the perfect product and it disappears!
