It seems that no matter how well we take care of our skin we still have times when our skin is out of balance. Sometimes it’s dry patches, sometimes its blemishes and sometimes its excess oil. And of the three the latter can be one of the most bothersome.

Luckily there are products to alleviate excess oil. Some of the best oil mattifyers are listed below:

Boscia Lavender Blotting Linens: These easy to use sheets are packaged to fit well in your purse and may be used on any areas of the face where oil is breaking through. The lavender infused in the sheets balance and calms the skin.

Murad Oil-Control Mattifier SPF 15: This multi-tasker reduces shine on contact as well as prevents excess oil build up. It’s fragrance and paraben free and has a sunscreen factor of SPF 15.

Exuviance Matte Perfection: This light gel absorbs excess oil and minimizes the appearance of large pores. You’re left with an instant matte finish and it makes for an excellent makeup primer.

Try any of these and you will shine! But it won’t be from extra oil on your face!!
