Moisture on Mars boasts the same bright and friendly packaging that the brand is known for and the formula sets itself apart as one that's light, non-comedogenic, hydrating and suitable for all skin types. While some moisturizers can feel heavy and pore-clogging, this one recognizes that moisturization is important for acne-prone skin too—even though it seems counterintuitive, [oily skin types need a moisturizer](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oilfree-hydrating-gel) to support a complexion that's healthy and balanced. Starface's Moisture on Mars boasts a clean, fragrance-free formula that supports skin with sage leaf extract, holy basil leaf extract, sodium hyaluronate and other ingredients.
