From my personal experience, I find that Sublimage moisturisers seems particulary great for those whose skin is lack in oil, and needs some oil-hydration balance in skin. I wouldn't recommend any of those moisturisers to people with oily to reactive skin types including acne though as they feels still rich for those specific skin types. Nevertheless, I came up with a comprehensive chart for Sublimage moisturisers based upon my decade long personal experience with them. Please note that this is my personal view, so the details given here may be differ from what the company claims.
