Extremely disappointed!!!
When I saw this in the store, I got excited, as I have an oily t-zone. Got it home, wore it for 2 days and was extremely disappointed. Not only did it not mattify my face, but I was oilier than ever!!! Where I usually blot my face once a day, I was blotting the entire day to rid my face of the oil. ...

Don't waste your money! Just a gimmick. 0/10
I purchased this on a whim since I wasnt able to get my regular primer when I was shopping. Worst decision ever. First, I didnt realize it was charcoal infused, so the black product scared the bejeezus out of me. Why do I need a detoxifying primer though??Anyway, this product is extremely disappointing. I'm more oily throughout the day and the shine was breaking through after barely 3 hours of wear. How sway??? This honestly should be taken off the shelves.
Excellent purchase 👌👍

Awesome inexpensive product. Great product to use with or without makeup. Silky soft finish. I purchased 3 at One time. The makeup it awesome highly recommend stays on great variety of colors. Blurr is the makeup I use over my armoni when needing that extra coverage
nyx primer
Definitely repurchasing! I have insanely oily skin and my makeup tends to seperate badly. I tried this primer and i noticed my makeup lasted a lot longer than it ever has before. I went about 5 hours before I had to powder my face. Do not use a lot!! A little dot of this primer can cover your entire face. Dont forget to let it sit before applying your foundation.
Works great
This primer actually works to control oil. I use it with a mattifying cleanser and a mattifying moisturizer too.
Shine Killer is Awesome!

I was extremely upset when the product I was using on areas of my face and scalp was discontinued, but then I found Shine Killer. It works great, I am very happy! I have already recommended it several friends! Please, please never discontinue this product! Thanks!
