wish I found this sooner

I was reading some beauty blogs on line when I stumbled on this in a few of them, my skin is the oil master!!! Time and prime again and again I find a routine that works for a bit but usually ends up failing. In my latest mac haul I ordered this and wow what a difference. It has a similar texture to smash box primer only a little more powdery like when applied, only a small amount is needed paying extra attention to my super oil spots my nose, cheeks and above my brows. I put it on about 10 minutes prior to concealer and foundation, it really works I've noticed a huge decrease in oil in my troubled areas and it keeps my makeup looking fresh and does not cake or sink or seperate my foundation. I definitely recommend this product it for me has worked better then most primer, or setting products out there (:

Love It!

This product makes my face smooth, smoothes fines lines, keeps my make up matte, doesn't grease me up, lasts all day and I'm a very happy woman. I will repurchase this product again. a lil goes a long way this product too.

Good but not great

I can't blame the product, I do have a pretty oily t-zone, so if you're extra oily I would be sure to carry some powder in your makeup bag. However, I think it's a really good primer. Smooths out my skin very nicely. This product will definitely not go to waste :-)

A little let down.

This product does matte my oily t-zone and it is great to wear under or over foundation; however, it is not long lasting at all. In fact, I still have to touch up with finishing powder as much as if I didn't use it at all. That disappointed me with this product. I ended up not using it much at all after the first couple of weeks and just kept it on hand for a quick touch up before photos because it does matte down instantly and doesn't show up in a photo.

I like it....

I have only been using it for a short while but I will say that it does leave my skin feeling smooth but I do have to powder up after a while. I dont need to use a primer when I use this because I feel it does the job of just that.

Eh...

Oh well, I gave this one a go about a few months ago and I have to say this did not work for me. I was still touching up about as much as I was without it. The only pro that I liked about it was that as soon as I applied it, my skin was softer, but that was it.

Decent

I bought this product a few days ago because I wanted to test it out on my combo skin. I thought the presentation from the MAC MUA was very well pleasing. I usually have to powder my t-zone a few times a day without this primer. I have only had to powder once while wearing this...it doesn't completely blot the oil but it does enough to not have you worrying about frying chicken on your nose...
