I use this over my sunscreen and nothing else. I love how it takes any shine away and I don’t need anything over it. I also use it on the back of my hands and as a concealer around my eyes.

This is an excellent product for toning down shine. I use it most often on really hot, humid days when I'm sweating even while getting ready -- big weather variations in the Midwestern US! It...

I like Mally but this product is FILLED with silicones. My skin exploded in terrible bumps and it took a long time for them to heal. I would recommend to try just a tiny bit on your jaw first and...

I agree with other reviewers on many points. I use NYX HD powder to set concealer and or foundation but past the 20's, any powder isn't that kind to the appearance of skin. Cons: This Mally...

This is a silicone gel pressed into the compact, and is supposed to help minimize the look of pores and fine lines, and protect makeup from morning till night. I really wanted to try this...

Wow! I was pleasantly surprised by this product. This stuff does everything the Porefessional doesn't: it hides pores, isn't greasy, and actually keeps your skin matte. FYI I have ridiculously oily...

I have an oily t-zone. I would even say that at certain times, it is very oily. This product, which I picked up as a beauty steal at Ulta, does a good job of keeping the oil at bay. I would say...

This is one of the most amazing products that I have ever encountered. It's like a primer, but it's not. It's like a powder, but it's not. It's in a league all of it's own! This looks like an...

I purchased this after hearing such great things about it. It is expensive! But I splurge and I'm glad I did. I do I think it is a must have, not sure. It lives up to it's claims. It does keep my...

Such a neat idea, but this was a miss for me. It's a silicone type primer intended to be used instead of a powder compact OVER your makeup to kill shine. It does totally blur and mattify your...
