there was a consumers report or something that came out a short while ago all about how the products like la mer were no better than the drugstore moisturizers (sorry everyone!!). in fact, the study specified oil of olay as being one of the best. i'll try to track it down and add the link.

personally, i use decleor products, and some clinique. but i have extremely sensitive and reactive skin (you look at my skin, and it turns red and breaks out). decleor has a great oil-free, mattifying moisturizer, paula. i have the same tee-zone issues as you, and i really like it. it actually blots excessive oil as it moisturizes. it's called matt finish skin fluid. costs about $40.

ON EDIT: my mistake - the study was specifically about reducing wrinkles. here's a write up about it:
