Dr. H has several moisturizers. I like the quince day cream the best for me--it's not greasy at all--and the clarifying toner. It's all I use and I actually spend less then when I was buying other products that were more complicated. There's a discount cosmetics company online that sells Dr H stuff *relatively* inexpensively. It's called essentialdayspa.com (I think).
I use Dr. Hauschka's too. It is expensive, so thanks for that link, I will check it out.
Tulip is right- they make various moisturizers with different formulas for different skin types. If one is too oily then another will be just right. Also don't use too much- a little goes a very long way.
For my 53 year old face skin with no oiliness/blemish problems, I use the "Moisturizing Day Cream". Very silky and light. I think it adds more moisture for "mature skin" than the quince day cream.
My other fave Dr.H product is the (also expensive) Birch Arnica body oil. Once every 2 or 3 weeks I loofah my whole body in the shower and then massage in the oil all over- it is so light it never feels "oily", just silky and warming. A few drops here and there can get worked in nicely. Smells like wood and the wonderful silky effect lasts for many days afterwards. It amazes me that I don't "feel" it there 5 days later, but water will still bead up on my skin a bit and I don't feel dry skin issues. Needless to say, I don't suds my whole body up with soap every day in the shower- I don't like removing all my good natural skin oils excessively. I just do the hot water shower all over and soap up the strategic spots.
