Neutrogena Shine Control Powder with Rice Protein Complex

Neutrogena Shine Control Powder with Rice Protein Complex Another drugstore option for matte skin can be achieved by using Neutrogena’s Shine Control Powder. The line also has a shine control primer and foundation, however the powder seems to get the best reviews. I’ve used this powder myself and it works!. I love that it’s so affordable and it’s translucent. Use this to set foundation and for touch-ups throughout the day for fresh and shine-free skin!

I’ve tried so many skin mattifying products, so I know it can get frustrating when nothing seems to work. If you have a hard time controlling oil, take a look at some of these skin mattifiers as well as your skin care routine to see if there are other areas you can tweak to help mend the situation. Have you used any of these skin mattifiers before? What has worked for you?

Where Thoughts and Opinions Converge

The Neutrogena works great

the Nivea for oily skin works great also!

@ Cat...thank you for posting how to use the Milk of Magnesia!!!

It is also great at removing foundation

I agree. Milk of magnesia works great. All you need is a little dabbed all over or on the oily places, then apply primer, foundation, and any other makeup as usual. :)

They definitely work for oily skin. I have very oily skin & I use the aveeno foaming cleanser everyday

Witch hazel as a toner is good at controlling oil and is very affordable. Costs less than $5 in stores and it's natural.
