How to use: Apply a small amount with a brush or disposable sponge. Apply over the entire face or in the T-zone to reduce the appearance of shine, and after your moisturizer but before foundation to prime the skin.

Used by the Pros!
This cream which to me looks like gel but it has a powdery feel to it once it sets. Nicely blends the foundation on top of it!

They Changed The Formula!
ALERT! This is NOT the same formula as the old Matte primer! I used to LOVE this primer! I ran out and opened my new tube and it stinks! It is much thinner, you can tell right away. As soon as I put it on, it wears off. It used to keep my face shine free all day, now the shine is back within minutes, like I didn't put anything off. Will never buy again! Why did they have to ruin something so good????? :(

No Staying Power
By far the worst mattifying primer I've ever used -- especially if you have combination/oily skin. The primer has a water-based gel type of consistency which turns velvety once on your skin. However, this has no staying power what so ever.... after only 30min oil started seeping through. The price was alluring but the product itself was a miss for me.

Blot Powder GEL!
This works better than the new Blot Powder! If you're oily, you should be hydrating your skin. And have a face routine to combat the oil, duh. Mist some Fix+, moisturize with Timecheck Lotion, then this. After foundation, set with Blot Powder, spray with Fix+ to mesh the layers together.

Amazing
I have super oily skin so I needed something to help. When I wear makeup, it falls off my face after a few hours because of how oily I get. This primer was such a game changer. I tried it today paired with Studio Fix Fluid SPF 15, Studio Fix Powder Plus Foundation, and Fix + Matte Spray. My nose never got oily, at least not near as bad as it did before. It's my new go to for sure.

Although it doesn't completely kill oiliness. It does help keep skin smooth. Soft. And reduces the oil look.
