I brought this when this was on sale. When it said long lasting shine control that sold to me. When I used this and let it soak into my skin for 5 mins, I noticed it kept my face matte. When I do my makeup I noticed my primer and foundation stay matte. I was sad when this got discountine.

I have combination and blemish prone skin, and definitely get oily/shiny throughout the day. I have been using this lotion for at least 4 years now and even after trying a couple more expensive 'shine control' moisturizers, this one takes the cake. It smells great but still light, it's not greasy, it doesn't clog my pores or cause me to break out. It really does control shine all day for me, as well as provide moisture. This face lotion is an absolute staple in my bathroom and makeup bag.

I've been having great results with Garnier's Pure Shine Control Moisturizer. It has zinc and clay to help control shine, both of which are supposed to be great for that. Plus, it's supposed to work well under makeup, which is important to me since I've been wearing a lot more on my face lately.
I've been using Garnier's Deep Scrub Gel with this lotion, and immediately after cleansing and applying this my skin looks matte and feels clean. This does a great job of moisturizing in the areas where I get shiny (forehead, nose and chin). Even after a whole day, my skin doesn't look half as shiny as it usually would with other products. It also seems to help with breakouts, and doesn't clog pores at all.
My only complaint with this product is that it does make my skin feel a bit tight in areas that are less oily, like my cheeks. It's not a huge deal though, and I kind of expected that so I just use a bit of regular moisturizer on those areas if necessary.
This product seriously works so well, if you're looking for something to help with shine control and don't want to clog your pores.
