I got from my dermatologist salicylic acid gel masque 2 times a week, and she told me to use Effaclar H as a moisturizer. I have T zone oily/combination skin, with some closed comedones below my mouth. They sometimes blow up into a pimple, for example when I'm in a pms, but I never used any product for that, just wait them to heal on their own. Thats why she thought I might have a itchiness and skin flaking for a first few times using a mask. And she was right, my skin felt a little bit dehydrated, but Effaclar H helped with that, it moisturized skin very well, and it didn't clog pores and it didn't create any new comedones. But, this product leaves a very shiny oily film on my skin, so I think it is great for a night routine, I use it after a Hyalu B5 serum, and it does a great job. But for a morning routine I do not recommend it, and I'm currently looking for a good replacement.
