    YUK! I used a sample of The Present primer and it completely dried out my face, even though I has used a moisturizer beforehand. My face hurt all day, but I was too lazy to re-do my whole face....

    Love it! I use AFTER the present clear makeup, using before really didn't help me control the oils and I use once again mid-day. So much better than cakey pressed powder for me!

    I thought this would be a great mattifier since it contains magnesium aluminum silicate, the ingredient found in Milk of Magnesia. I have been known to use MOM as a mattifier but the liquidy...

    I ran out of the dermoloigca mattifying treatment and decided to get this in a pinch. It's not bad. And actually less expensive than my other brand but I just have a sneaky suspicion that this...

    At first, I was so excited about this product, but after about 2 weeks of use, I can honestly say that it is not worth the money, at least for me. They did control oil a little, but only for an...

    This is a good product. It does what it says, which is to control oil. I have excessively oily skin (can easily use up 2-3 C&C blotting sheets in one use, and I use them at least 2 times a day),...

    Good stuff. Really keeps the oil at bay, and lasts forever. You only need to use a tiny drop in shiny places (if you use too much it will streak). I use it in my T-zone: a little dab on my...

    i've tried products from lise watier, clean n clear, and clinique to control my oil and this is so far the best out of all of them. I'd used the peach coloured lotion from clean & clear (it's been...

    tis mattifies my oily complexion and keeps the shine away for a slightly longer time. i like the way my eyeliner stays smudge-free after i apply a thin layer of this clear solution across my lids.

    Fantastic! I put this on after cleansing and before everything else, and my makeup doesn't budge for hours. Wore it during my wedding on a humid Houston night and only had to touch up my nose once!...
