description

This lightweight pressed powder blots oil and stops shine without messing up your makeup. Don’t let the pale lavender color fool you; this baby goes on invisibly and works on every skin tone. Try it on naked skin (if you run into the hot guy at the gym), or over foundation (for touch-ups on the dance floor without destroying your makeup). Because the formula contains super lightweight, oil-absorbing rice powder, you won't feel the powder but you'll see the shine-free results. Because it’s made from rice powder, this lightweight, super-absorbent formula not only banishes shine, but also absorbs oil. Most pressed powders mix with the skin’s natural oils and can end up looking cakey on your complexion, but not De-Slick. And it’s infused with tea tree oil to calm and soothe sensitive skin. This shine-fighting formula comes in a luxe Lucite compact with a pretty-but-edgy design drenched in signature dark purple.

I really like this product and urban decay in general, but it's just too expensive for how long it lasts. I've had mine just over 2 weeks and started to see the pan today! I generally use it about...

Bought this because i'm a fan of UD and needed something to help with my oily t-zone. It does work for the most part. It says it works for all skin colors, but it definitely leaves a white-ish...

Not a big fan really. The smell makes my tummy turn and I don't feel it's super awesome either. The sponge sucks and while I think a kabuki would apply best, I don't want to brush a kabuki over my...

Expensive, but does the job if you have an oily T-Zone like I do. I'd honestly rather save my money and get a loose setting powder from Makeup Forever, but this is infinitely easier to travel with...

I agree with the general comment on the "white sheen" that the product brings. it's good at marrifying, but yea it takes life away from my face, but not too much. so I will finish it and try...

i love this powder. i just apply it with a brush. it does look cakey at first but i fix that by blotting with a damp makeup sponge. The packaging is super cute (:

This product is a wonder for me. My face is not an oil-slick normally, but about midday there is some shine on my T-zone, so I've been looking for a light powder to take care of that. This product...

This is a great product for those of us who suffer from oil slicks during the day. It is a very finely milled, hard pressed white powder with a faint tea tree scent. It's an ok price, I think I...
