I have an oily face. And I don’t mean a cute little shine. I mean the words “she’s a greasy broad”, comes to mind when people see me after four hours, even with makeup on. My face laughs at rice powder, oil blotters and other paltry means disguise. My hair is stuck to my head 24 hours after a shower. You could fry an egg on my face if I was left out in the sun. I’m relatively certain that if you got stranded on a deserted island, you could make a torch out of material, just rub it on my forehead and then light it to keep you in the light all night. Special creams and powders are (usually) no match for my skin.So yeah, I was skeptical. $30 for a non-shiny face was no huge investment (if it worked) and Prime made me feel secure that if this stuff sucked like everything else I’ve tried, I’d be able to recoup more wasted dollars.I decided to jump in head first (hahaha) and try it the first day with NO BASE MAKEUP AND NO POWDER. I wanted to put this stuff to the ultimate test. I did as was recommended on the box to apply and then moved on about my day.It doesn’t last 8 hours. But I can tell you that it fully lasted 4 hours and after 8 hours, my face was markedly less oily than it was without it. Which for someone who truly struggles with oily skin is a godsend. I will post edits with my makeup results later.The pic is (from left) without oil control after about 8 hours, then after I put it on this morning, then about 4 hours in and then about 10 hours in. 😱  Read Less
