Embryolisse Mattifying Milk-Cream is a lightweight, non-greasy moisturizer formulated with organic oat milk, organic aloe vera, prebiotics, and rice powder. Specially designed for combination to oily skin, it leaves the skin soft, clear, and shine-free.
Embryolisse Mattifying Cream-Milk combines the moisturizing benefits of the Concentrated Cream-Milk in a lightweight, non-greasy formula, specially formulated for combination to oily skin. Its simple formula focuses on the essentials: organic oat milk, organic aloe vera, prebiotics, and rice powder.
For daily use, it serves primarily as a facial moisturizer, leaving the skin soft, clear, and shine-free, with a matte, non-greasy finish. Rice powder gives the film on the skin its velvety feel, while aloe vera and oats provide the hydration that even oily skin needs: just because skin is shiny doesn’t mean it’s well-hydrated.

The same tube doubles as a mattifying makeup primer. Applied in a thin layer before foundation, it prepares the skin and minimizes shine that appears throughout the day on the forehead, nose, and chin. It also acts as a rebalancing mask, perfect for evenings when your skin is feeling the strain after a busy day.
These last two uses make it a great product for a shared bathroom. It also doubles as a gentle makeup remover; after shaving, it soothes the skin without leaving it greasy. Both men and women can use it. The formula is non-comedogenic and has been dermatologically tested on sensitive skin.
For combination to oily skin, cleansing is just as important as skincare. For this, we recommend the Uriage Hyséac Cleansing Gel: used morning and night, it removes accumulated sebum and impurities without leaving the skin feeling tight, and the Mattifying Cream-Milk then takes over to moisturize and mattify.
Directions for Use
Apply morning and/or evening to a clean face, as a moisturizer or makeup primer. As a mask, apply a generous layer and leave on for at least 15 minutes; as a makeup remover, apply to a cotton pad; as an aftershave, apply to clean, dry skin.

The most common mistake people make with oily skin is skipping moisturizer and over-cleansing to combat shine. Stripped skin feels tight, then becomes even shinier. The right approach is the opposite: gentle cleansing and a lightweight moisturizer, without skipping any steps. For combination skin, focus the application on the T-zone and use a lighter touch on the cheeks, which have different needs.
Keep your expectations realistic: the matte effect is superficial and lasts several hours without preventing the skin from producing sebum. When using it as a makeup primer, let it absorb for one to two minutes before applying foundation. Use a face mask once or twice a week, in the evening. Finally, if shine is accompanied by persistent breakouts, review the last warning on the list: that’s the one that matters most.
Should I choose the Mattifying Cream Milk or the Embryolisse Concentrated Cream Milk?
The Concentrated Cream is a richer formula, made with shea butter and beeswax, designed for all skin types and particularly suited for dry skin. The Mattifying Cream retains the same multi-purpose use but without the rich fatty ingredients: free of vegetable oil, butter, or wax, it combines rice powder with a fluid texture designed for shiny skin. The first is suitable for skin that feels uncomfortable, while the second is for skin that’s shiny.
Can I use the Mattifying Cream Milk while undergoing an anti-blemish treatment?
Yes, this is actually a common combination. Topical treatments for blemishes, whether prescription or over-the-counter, often dry out the skin and cause tightness. A lightweight moisturizer counteracts this dryness without weighing down the skin. It should be applied after the treatment, once it is completely dry, unless otherwise directed by your healthcare provider.
Can I rely on the Mattifying Cream to protect me from the sun?
No, the formula contains no sunscreen and has no SPF rating. During the day, apply a sunscreen suitable for combination to oily skin over the moisturizing cream, before applying makeup. Sunscreens labeled “oil control” or “matifying” are best suited for this skin type.
