Neutrogena Shine Control Matte Booster Face Primer & Serum, Skin-Mattifying Serum-to-Primer with Rice Protein, Absorbs Excess Oil & Keeps Skin Shine Free, 1.0 fl. oz

TLDR: So I have combo skin (OILY on my forehead), and mattefying products haven’t worked OTHER than this one! I use a drop with my sunscreen, and then another drop with my foundation. I barely have to dabble my face during the day, and it’s lasted a full 8 hours! Super lightweight and absolutely clear.Pros:- Good gel consistency, so one drop goes a long way! The consistency also helps with dealing with very watery formulas- Lightweight and sheer, no worries about smearing/coloring elsewhere/etc.- Mixes with other liquid products incredibly easily!- Ultimately effective and does exactly what it says it will, without causing any other acne or skin issues (no skin irritation at all, and I have VERY sensitive skin!)Cons:- Depending on how you feel about cosmetics, could seem overpriced. But again, 2 drops go a long way for oily skin, so up to you- Consistency makes the dropper a little weird to use. You have to pinch the top rubber part once or twice while the dropper is fully submerged in order to get product- Scales with weather. Will need about 3 drops in warmer days, 4 in summer (think NYC Manhattan summer heat)

This is a GREAT deal on a primer plus serum. U can’t ever go wrong with neutrogena, ever! I mix this with my neutrogena hydro boost moisturizer and BAM! it works like a charm. This is the only second primer I’ve ever used, and the both didn’t work like I imagined. I thought my pores would be literally invisible, but it does work enough to cover them up nicely and gives a nice look to my face. Kinda brightens it up a bit. I still would like to know what primer actually makes ur pores COMPLETELY invisible (if there is one). But for the price and that this is a 2-in-one, this is pretty great!! Oh and I have oily, sensitive skin (not REALLY sensitive thou!). Amazon, u helped me again, thank u! Lol. If anyone has a primer that REALLY, TRULY covers up your pores, at a decent price, please let me know in a comment of ur own. Hope this helps!!

I tried this because I have the t-zone. I’m always looking for something to help out with my oily skin. It worked well but I still had some oiliness throughout the day. Not bad….it helped control the shine but not totally impressed.

This product did help with oil control, though since I have sensitive skin it did break me out occasionally.

Love this stuff

I was hoping this product is what they replaced their rice protein complex shine control primer with, since they yanked the black tube of it off the market. That was the best stuff ever, why they did that is beyond me. Anyway, this serum is pretty much worthless for my needs. I need something that absorbs oil for hours, by itself and not underneath any makeup. I'm in martial arts and don't wear makeup to class but don't want an oily face. Had high hopes for this. The "matte" lasted maybe a half an hour, and then my face was even oiler than normal after the matte had run it's course. I have a whole bottle of it now and won't even use it again. So disappointed. Please bring back the black tube. It was the best on the market.
