    Silicone makes your skin feel oily, no matter where. Put under a creamy eye shadow that usually stays put, it made it crease for the first time!

    I can add this mattifier to a long list of failures. This is the 4th one I have tried with no success. There is absolutely no difference in the staying power of my m/u with or without this...

    I agree that this doesn't have much lasting power. But when the oils do come back, it does help to make my face look more glowy (is this a word???) than greasy. Its also great for foundation and...

    Thank goodness I got this in a swap & didn't purchase it. It is in a large tube & would last forever- if it didn't leak out everywhere when applying it. It feels greasy on my face & doesn't hold...

    When I first put this on, it does appear to work as it makes my face matte, but a couple of hours later, my face seems oiler than before I had put it on. For some reason, when I try to get some of...

    I love this under & over foundation. It keeps the shine away longer than foundation by itself & if I use it over foundation there is no color to it so it doesn't change the color of my foundation &...

    I find that using a mattifying product as a base instead of traditional foundation helps my skin look more natural. MAC's Matte is a favorite of mine because it doesn't look streaky or flat...

    This stuff did not do anything to mattify my face. If anything, it left my skin feeling oilier and did not help foundation stay on at all.

    <img src="http://beverlys.net/wow.gif"> This stuff's great!! It smoothes on easily and makes skin matte and even for makeup, or without. A tube lasts forever as well.

    I used a small firm flat brush to apply this stuff and I felt like I was covering my face with rubber cement! It went on light and effectively mattified my nose but I couldn't get over the rubber...

    I bought this to eliminate greasies, but it did not work. It didnt break me out though which is important. My skin wasnt as oily as usual but not enough to keep wearing it. I returned it.
