    I'll chime in with some of the other recent posts: I really, REALLY wanted to like this product, but I got such mixed results that I cannot recommend it. After reading some of the other...

    I really wanted to like this product but sadly it doesn't like me! I had no trouble with application (no white cast) and it did an OK job of controlling oil, but after two or three days I started...

    this is better than smashbox primer on me, holds oil back better. but still nothing beats the DHC white sunscreen, that is the only one that keeps me matte all day long. the ingredients are pretty...

    Great Product - On my second one. This product will make skin look completely smooth, but you need to wear makeup over it. Your skin will look chalky if you wear it alone. I actually do not wear...

    Unfortunately, I'm with Emma. I had high hopes for this. Patted it on, blended it out, but it's still obvious. I'm pretty fair, too, but it still looks a little chalky. Makes my JI foundation cake...

    This reminds me of Benefit's Dr. Feelgood product but this one is so much better in controlling the oilies. Don't get me wrong, I still need to blot but it really helps in keeping my JI foundation...

    I bought this because I liked the JI Pure Pressed Base, but it was doing nothing for me to control my oily T-zone and cheeks. This helps control oil like nothing I've ever used. It takes a while...
