greaseless
Lacking oily residue
Greaseless means without grease or oil.
The term typically describes products formulated to avoid the slick, oily residue that grease leaves behind: a greaseless moisturizer, greaseless sunscreen.
It appeals to those who dislike the heavy feel of oil-based products on skin or surfaces.
