5 Ways to Fight Shine

Whether it’s your natural skin chemistry, the outdoor elements, or your makeup … most of us have had to battle unwanted shine.

Oily skin isn’t all bad. Because your skin naturally hydrates itself, any wrinkles or obvious aging will appear much later in life.

If a little oil is getting in the way, here are five products that will control your shine throughout your day-to-day activities.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Sephora Collection Matte Blotting Papers

Oil-blotting papers are great in a clutch. They instantly absorb excess oil to reduce shine, without drying skin or smudging your makeup. Take a sheet and gently dab on your skin where any excess oil forms and it will soak it right up. The Sephora Collection offers two options for just $8 … natural matte papers in lavender, tea tree, and vitamin C + E, and regular matte blotting film.

Bobbi Brown Oil Control Lotion

This lotion is ideal for normal to oily and combination skin types. The oil control lotion is lightweight and still contains SPF 15 to protect your delicate skin from harmful rays. After cleaning your skin with your face wash, apply the oil control lotion that will provide a soft matte finish and smooth your makeup application. This product is a splurge, retailing at $48.

Laura Mercier Smooth Focus Shine Control Powder

Don’t let the white color consistency fool you. This shine control powder visibly eliminates shine and controls oil breakthrough due to its derived shine control complex. The powder is lightweight, goes on with a translucent velvet finish and is perfect for light makeup touch-ups midday for a flawless oil-free look. We give it a thumbs up … all $32 worth.

Olay Shine Control Lathering Cleanser

This cleanser controls shine without drying out your skin. It’s gentle enough for everyday use in the mornings and is perfect for normal, oily, and combination skin types. Who wouldn’t love a $6 detoxifying mud cleanser with the rinsing action of a deep-cleaning daily face wash?
