This product is very thick, almost like smearing paste on your face. I was quite surprised that even though I have maybe one small oily spot on either side of my nose, this did nothing for that,...

I don't know what the negative reviewers are smoking because I LOVE this product. It actually does exactly what it says. I've never had that with a (1) sunblock, (2) mattifyer or (3) moisturizer...

MATTIFYING? hell no. this product did NOTHING to control my oil if anything made it even oilier. It was funny because the lady that was helping me out at sephora put some oil on her hand then...

A bit too matte even in the summer. Leaves your skin kind of dry. Almost powdery!!!!! Maybe good for extremely oily skin. Not recommended for combination skin. It should moisturize a bit more.

I completely agree with most of the other reviewers. This was a total waste of $42. It didn't do anything to combat oiliness & it felt like my skin got greasier. Ugh.

Well, my skin isn't oily using this product. I sure wouldn't call it moisturizer. And it mattifies OK - but I think I'd rather use other products for that. You have to use a lot in small doses...
