Do you use an oil mattifier?

I alternate between Mary Kay and Proactiv brands . . . I find that I have to be careful though because they tend to "show up" underneath my makeup :perplexed But I do love not being greasy!

I use oil absorbing foundation primer everday over my moisturizer.

I have rice paper, but I don't use the oil mattifier anymore.

Nope, i just blot and apply Laura Mercier transclucent powder. Ive noticed that mattifiers only end up making me oilier.

DHC matte Cream is awesome. The best I have tried, just wish it did not cost $28. A little goes a long way though, so my jar should last a while. This stuff does not make your skin oiler, at least not for me.

I used to, but I no longer need to now (thank goodness).

I use a makeup primer---sometimes alone. I get oily in my tzone only and the primer truly helps with that. I use BE powder over it if I feel the need to. My favorite Primer is Philosophys The Present (it looks white in the tube but it really goes on clear and gives you an 'airbrushed' appearance. You really don't need makeup when you were it and it's described as 'clear makeup'. I think it's amazing. I've used it now for 3-4 years. Tarte also makes a good primer. I get my products from Sephora.

I used to wear Mary Kay's oil matifier, but now I use smashbox or Nars primer.

Nope, I just blot my face with tissue throughout the day. I'm a minimalist when it comes to what I put on my face. I normally only do up my eyes and lips.

Blot with tissue thru out the day. Nothing stops my facial oil and I've learn not to try and block it, but let it flow freely to surface and blot. Even tho oily sheen, my skin is flawless . . .

My tinted moisturizer helps mattify...Laura Mercier's Oil Free, SPF 20

I use Clean & Clear's Oil Blotting Sheets that come in regular, grapefruit, and morning burst scent. Love them because they don't tear like paper when i'm blotting. You can get 50/pk for under $5.

Also use The Body Shop's Matte It, silica mattifier and M.A.C. Blot Powder in loose and pressed.

I once heard Sarah Jessica Parker say that before she made it big in acting and couldnt afford good make-up and blotting sheets, she would use the paper toilet seat covers in bathroom stalls, tear them up and blot her face. She said it was the SAME material that's used for most blotting sheets anyway. I've tried it while at work instead of using up 3-5 normal blot sheets a day and it works! Blots up the excess oil!
