I have found an amazing product for oily skin, a loose powder called Mattify and just have to share this with the rest of the world. This has truly been the best makeup discovery I have ever made. The instructions say that if you have very oily skin, to apply it both before and after your foundation. So, the first day I received it, that is exactly what I did. I was amazed that 3 hours after doing my makeup, I had NO shine! Normally my face would have been an oil slick by 10am. I bought it on Ebay for about 6 bucks – just type Mattify into the search. I was trying to do a product review on it, but it does not come up in the list of products, so maybe I will create a blog about my application tips and experiences with it. But if you have oily skin, you have GOT to try Mattify!!
