Most Helpful Positive Review love it! I really like this product. My skin is fairly average, combination skin. I am not overly oily, but my t-zone does get oily throughout the day, even more so if I wear makeup (vs no makeup). I also recently decided to wear sunscreen every day, which SERIOUSLY adds to my oiliness. I usually allow my sunscreen to sink in for a couple mins, then I apply this product. And it works very very well, my skin goes down to almost completely matte. I have also applied this over top my foundation and it worked well that way too. The way I use this is I drop a few drops on the back of my hand. Then I dip my finger in and TAP on the places that I am oily. I tap tap tap until it feels like it's totally worked in. Then if I still feel I need more, I will dip my finger and go back again. I wouldn't suggest rubbing to apply this product. The only thing I did notice, was that when I applied a lot to the back of my hand, the edges of the little pool of product would dry up before I could use it all. It dried up to a white-ish powdery residue. I wouldn't want that on my face, so I make sure to build up in small amounts. I used to get oily by mid-day, but now I don't! I really don't even need to re-apply it. Maybe on a hot humid day I would need to, but that's it.
Most Helpful Critical Review Doesn't work, broke me out I bought this after reading a ton of good reviews (via other sites) and at half off. After trying several different products (all fails), I was so hopeful that I'd finally found something that would help keep the oil at bay, but I saw no difference. Also, after a few uses, I started to get a bunch of tiny bumps on my forehead. They did clear up quickly after I stopped using this, but I just couldn't keep using it, so I returned it. So disappointing.

LauraW from Reno, NV
Living in northern Nevada, the weather is super hot during the day in the summer. On top of that, I struggle with hormonal cystic acne at 31yo. No matter what foundation I wore, even Double Wear, my face was so greasy mid day.
I started mixing 2 drops of this with my foundation and WOW keeps me matte without my skin feeling dry. I've tried this with my Dose of Colors foundation and with the Pat McGrath foundation and it worked wonderfully with both of those. No transfer to my mask and didn't wear off on my cheeks where my mask touches my face.
Def will be a staple in my makeup routine. Though it's a little pricey, you need so little that it will last a long time.

Melissa from Oklahoma
I am so grateful for this product! I have very oily skin. Even with primers and setting sprays, I have issues with "makeup melt" by midday. Now I am much less oily and barely have to blot until the end of the day. I apply this product by patting on after my cleansing and serum routine... right before applying my liquid foundation.
The ABSOLUTE BEST!!! My makeup looks AMAZING 5
Lindsay from Greenwood Ms
I use this right before I put my liquid foundation on! It makes my skin look so smooth and my makeup stays on even longer!

Pretty Darn Good 4
Makeup Geek from Ohio
I struggled with oil seeping through my makeup and I searched for a solution and I found this. I was putting it directly on my skin at first; this works but it leaves white streaks. It can also dry out the skin of you have combo skin. I have been mixing it with my primer and it works so well in my oily areas. It's not a perfect product but it definitely makes a different.
Love these 5
M from Hey
Here's the thing with oily skin, nothing can really stop it from happening but you can prolong it. These drops do that and when my face does get oily I feel like it makes it look dewy instead of gross.
Just a plain no 1
Vanessa from Sparks, NV
I bought this because I have heard good things about COVER FX. But this just didn't work for me. As soon as I put it on it definitely made my skin matte but within 40 mins of putting this on with The COVER FX foundation and concealer my oils just started to come out 10x worse. I have used the Becca matte & pore primer and that was 100x better than this. I would not recommend please save your money and invest in a different product.

Enjoying these drops! I use a little on my face as a serum and then sometimes a drop in my foundation. I find them easy to mix and makes everything look smooth!g
Amazing Matte and Skin Friendly 5
AndreaRosie from Louisiana
I love this. I cannot do dimethicone so my foundation options are pretty much dewy because they are "natural." Well I added two drops and swirled it into my foundation before applying. Two drops! And bam bam my face didn't melt in this Louisiana humidity! Also somehow made my skin less breakoutty?! Like a mystery for me but I'll take it! Seriously I'm so glad I bought this. It'll probably last me till I'm in the grave.
It works!! 5
Bridget from North Arlington
My face gets super oily and my pores are bigger. My makeup tends to break up around my nose.
So far I'm seeing a huge difference! The scent is fresh and I love that it's anti bacterial with tea tree for my breakouts. Kaolin clay!!
Liquid Powder! 5
Jen from NJ
I love this stuff! A small amount goes a long way, only need it in the areas I get oily and acts like a liquid powder. I've used it to blot too and it instantly cuts oil and shine. You can definitely smell the tea tree oil that's inside, makes me feel better knowing the ingredients are potent and working
Matte Control all day! 5
Lauren J from NYC
My skin gets crazy oily in the T zone and make up always melts down but this product is Amazing!!!
No melt down and I love Tea tree! I love Cover Fx products- they truly make the best products!!
Best Matte product Ever!!! Fresh matte skin all day! 5
Jessica P from New Jersey
I absolutely love these drops! The tea tree scent is so nice! My skin feels so clean and refreshed! The oil control is truly so good! I've been using them under my foundation and the wear has been awesome. I'm going to try them in my foundation next. It's a very light weight texture.
I highly recommend them!
Poreless - For Oily Skin 5
Lauren from Miami FL
I've been suing this product for the last two weeks. In store they mentioned I can mix it with my foundation or layer after primer/before foundation. Since my foundation is already a matte one, I've been layering the product just on my t zone. So many complements, on how smooth my skin looks. It's helped with the look of my pores and how my foundation stays matte in my oily areas.
If you can get past the smell 3
Ang from Racine
This product works well to keep my shiny skin under control but the smell is very.... odd.
Disappointed 1
Jayli from Indiana
I really wanted to love this... but I couldn't. It basically made my foundation go on patchy and everything I did couldn't make it work.
