I've had good luck with Erno Laszlo's Antioxidant Mattifying Complex. I don't think it works as well as La Mer, but it's still great. I have also heard good things about Kiehl's Blue Herbal Moisturizer but I haven't tried it myself.

At the moment I am using Biore oil absorbing sheets, but they are a bit rough and they have powder on them so it can clog your pores. I was using Clinique in England, but it is very expensive and I haven't seen their oil absorbing sheets anywhere. As for Clean & Clear; I have been searching for that everywhere and cannot find it. I've looked in Zellers, Loblaws and several Shopper's Drug Marts. Is it just not available in Canada? I have also seen a bunch of oil absorbing sheets in the Body Shop, but the ones I saw also come with powder on, so I'm not sure if it is a good idea to buy those.
What are the Clean & Clear sheets like? Are they soft and floppy or are they like rough pieces of thin paper? The Clinique sheets were very soft and floppy and I could wipe my face without irritating the skin, but the Biore ones are quite rough (and I guess the powder doesn't help, either).
You can buy La Mer online or check their store locater: http://www.cremedelamer.com/templates/door/results_intl.tmpl?COUNTRY=Canada&CITY=
The Clean & Clear sheets don't have any powder, and almost feel like soft, floppy, plastic. They feel just like the MAC blotting sheets.
