Great product!
I personally found this product over priced for the amount of product provided per bottle but on the other hand a little goes a long way! It basically mattifies the skin to prevent shine, reduces the appearance of enlarged pores and smoothes out the skin to leave you with a polished look without looking overdone.
I would buy this product again and again
I was excited to try this as I have a very textured skin. It goes on very nicely and absorbs quickly. It smells really lovely and feels very lightweight. It just feels like a very light moisturizer. It doesn't have a silconey feel so it doesn't feel slippy especially that I have oily skin. It also controls the look of oilyness as the day goes on. However, the blurring effect goes away as I started to become oily. I'm really glad I got this for free as this is a pricey product but considering you only need a few drops, it will last long.
(Disclaimer: I received this for free for testing.)
I love this smoother! I use it after my makeup and it gives my face a perfect matte look. I highly recommend this product! Just one thing you have to keep in mind, this is not a primer.
It FEELS like a primer with that sort of silicone-smooth finish, but right here you would already be wrong. Firstly, this is not a primer. This goes on AFTER your foundation or as the final step in your skincare routine! It does not disturb your carefully blended foundation and just seems to erase areas of shine or with larger pores. It can be used all over or as a spot treatment for around the nose, cheeks and forehead. A little goes a long way as the fluid is indeed like a serum so the "spreadability factor" is awesome. The formula is incredibly lightweight and the container is so small that you can put it in your purse for touch-ups. It's almost like having liquid blotting papers!
Secondly, there are no silicones in this product. Crazy, right? That smooth feeling comes from using an oil-targeting micro powder that absorbs oil the moment it touches skin. While I could not find a single ingredient that I could decipher as "micro powder", there are a number of ingredients in this product that control viscosity so I suspect it is a "group effort". I hesitate to mention this because I'm still on the fence about methyparaben and ethylparaben, but there is methyparaben right in the middle of the ingredients list, so there is actually a higher concentration of preservative than the plant extracts it contains. Correlation does not equal causality when it comes to cancer and parabens, but for anyone who prefers a cleaner ingredients list, just FYI.
