I've got extremely oily skin, so anything that could potentially reduce my oil slick is going to catch my eye. I've tried a few other mattifying products, but nothing has worked well enough to justify repurchase, so I've still been on a quest. Could this be it?
Sadly, no. I so wanted to love this, but it proved to be an epic fail for me. The downfall seems to be when you apply it with any other product, be it a moisturizer, a primer, or your foundation. It pills terribly, which totally defeats the purpose, as you are essentially rubbing off the product. After my first few tries with these results, I did some online searching to see if others experienced this (they did) and if there might be a solution. Someone suggested applying over your foundation, so hope soared again and I tried that. All that happened was that my foundation was dissolved and I still experienced pilling. The only use I could see for this is if used over bare skin, as it doesn't pill up then. That won't work for me though. Does it mattify? Not that I could tell, but since it rubbed off hard to say what its mattifying abilities are.
