A Greasy Gal's Life Saver!!
This stuff has saved my super-oily-skin-having life. I was skeptical about it and was hesitant about shelling out quite a bit of money for something that might not work but this stuff is worth every penny and I will continue to buy it for as long as UD continues to make it.
My skin produces an insane amount of oil. I used to wash my face and apply a light moisturizer and within a half an hour my face would begin to get greasy. After several hours my skin would feel heavy and slick because it was covered in so much oil and I'd have to wash it again. There was so much oil that sheets alone couldn't absorb it all and regular powder would just make a cakey mess. Now I use a fluffy brush and dust this over my moisturizer or makeup and I'm oil-free. After 3 or 4 hours I do begin to get a bit shiny but the oilslick factor is greatly reduced and a good blotting followed by more of this powder really curbs it and it doesn't disturb my makeup. As an added bonus it also helps absorb sweat.
The only cons I can find have nothing to do with the product or it's effectiveness but the packaging. Don't get me wrong--I love the compact. It's larger than I thought, has a great large mirror and a deep well that holds a ton of product, and is made of thick sturdy plastic that holds up to all the beatings it takes tumbling around in my bag. But applying this with the little puff over my Naked Skin makeup has made it quite dirty and I wish UD would sell replacement puffs separately. Or better yet, include a small fluffy brush in the compact, as the puff can apply the powder a little too heavily.
