    I love, love, love this product. I am always shiny in my T-zone and then I break out in those areas as a result. I started using this product and saw instant results- minimal shine and no more...

    I have been wanting to try this forever now because I have horribly oily skin. I HATE pro Activ products, but this had good reviews and I have been obsessed with finding the perfect primer. I went...

    After trying Laura Mercier and Smashbox oil-free primers (both broke me out and didn't work at keeping my skin matte at all), I decided to try this, since I already use the Proactiv skincare...

    This is an awesome product for those with oily skin. I apply this as a makeup primer because it'll matte my skin so that my foundation applies evenly. This is definitely better than my experience...

    My holy grail primer. I have to use a little bit (and I mean a little bit like a pea size) it works wonderful! If I use too much I will be a grease slick!

    This is the best makeup primer and I have tried them all!!! They usually make my face break out. This one does NOT! You have to be careful not to use too much a little goes a long way, and you MUST...

    After reading these reviews, I had such high hopes for this product. But I was sadly disappointed. It says it "absorb[s] excess oils," but it really just covers them up. My extremely oily skin...

    Okay so I have super oily skin, and using the Proactiv system just amplifies my oilies. I needed a mattifier and I trust Proactiv (since it works wonders for me) and bought this. Not that cheap but...

    I like this product, though I'm not crazy about it. Don't get me wrong, it does a wonderful job of controlling excess oil and mattifying. Its kind of unbelievable. I still have my bottle & don't...

    This is a good mattifier for someone like me who has super oily and super dry skin because it controls the oil and doesn't dry out my skin. I don't really think of it as a primer, but I suppose...

    I really like this product. Most of the oil control / mattifying products I've tried either don't do anything, feel weird on my skin, or look strange/dry under make-up. This one goes on easily,...

    I have tried The Body shop mattifier and smashbox mattifier. But this is the best. Really controls oil, does not cause my face to have breakouts, enable my makeup to be applied smoothly, does not...

    This is actually more of an oil-control skincare item, but it works wonderfully as a makeup primer as well! The consistency is very similar to the Smashbox Photo Finish Primer, but it doesn't...
