A gel when you prefer a lighter feel
Neutrogena describes Hydro Boost Water Gel as a lightweight gel moisturiser. The 50 g example below is fragranced, so check the exact ingredient list if fragrance bothers your skin. Texture alone does not tell you whether a formula suits you. Oily skin still benefits from moisturising; look for an oil-free, non-comedogenic label rather than skipping moisture altogether.

CeraVe PM Facial Moisturising Lotion is a lightweight evening option. It contains ceramides, niacinamide and hyaluronic acid. Follow your pack's directions after cleansing. PM is the product name and routine cue; it is not sun protection. The linked brand page is US-facing, so use the ingredients and directions on your own bottle if they differ.

For dry skin, dermatologists recommend a fragrance-free cream or ointment over a lotion. CeraVe Moisturising Cream is one rich-texture example for the face and body. Apply moisturiser while skin is still slightly damp and follow the exact pack's directions. A richer feel is a preference and a purpose, not a reason to keep adding more layers.
