BOBBI BROWN

Bobbi Brown's makeup and skincare products are really excellent. Its Primer Plus Mattifier is specifically tailored for oily skin and combination oily skin. It comes in a simple yet sleek squeeze tube, which greatly prevents the product from oxidation after contact with the air.

The bendable primer is very easy to use, and generally can be used many times thanks to its adequate capacity. Aside from blurring pores, the lightweight primer does a great job of keeping your skin shine-free all day. The brand claims that it can act as the “liquid blotting paper”.

This primer is easily absorbed to give skin a matte look. It also provides brightening and moisturizing benefits and doesn't feel heavy even if you apply foundation and sunscreen afterward. However, it is not very suitable for dry skin, since it balls up sometimes. If you have oily skin, you also need to hydrate your skin before using it.

Beauty writer Becki Murray said, “if you want a semi-matte finish without dulling your complexion, Bobbi Brown Primer Plus Mattifier makes a solid choice. It blends well with liquid foundations.” QVC, the home shopping network, uploaded a wear test video of this product on YouTube, in which it was acclaimed as an ideal primer for oily skin.
