I agree with the comments about the chalky residue both on the bottle and skin, but I still am really impressed with this (AND it cost me £10 - maybe I can get it for $10 next time I go to the...

My main complaint with this product is the gritty texture. No matter how much I shake the bottle, it still goes on like kitty litter. And you must be careful to check the mirror to make sure it's...

This stuff WORKS, but you have to follow directions and shake the bottle in order to get the "mattifying stuff" to mix into the fluid phase. The packaging isn't too bad; I usually just squirt a...

I can't believe they still make this stuff! I used this nearly 10 years ago, and the packaging still blows. You really have to shake it forever before you can apply it. I haven't used this awhile,...

This product worked very well for me. I have a recurring problem of products leaving a film or buildup on the surface and I was worried this one would do just that, but it didn't. I was waiting...

Good Product. The trick is to shake it well and apply thinly to only oily areas.

I ended up returning this stuff. It had a grainy texture when applied. Don't ask why; I don't know. It was very bizzarre. If this product worked, $10 would be a goof, fair price and I thought the...

This is a wonderful mattifier...just be careful to apply a thin coat, and smooth it evenly over your skin before it dries. It is expensive for a small amount, but it works. Packaging is terrible,...

This did mattify my oily nose -- but only temporarily. I didn't like the gritty feeling afterward though. I also found out that if you don't spread the liquid properly around the sides of your...

I found this product to be crap. It's gritty and clumpy. When you put on your foundation afterwards, it does not go on smoothly. For oil control I later discovered using a combo of milk of...
