The Product That Is Keeping My Skin From Being a Big Ol' Shiny Mess This Summer

News related: skin

I have oily skin on a good day, but this summer has been particularly bad between the high temperatures and the extra-high humidity in New York right now, it's-all-oil-all-the-time over here. So I called in some industrial-strength reinforcements well, really, one. And it's been keeping me from becoming so shiny moths flock to my face. It's...

OC Eight Acne Mattifying Gel.

Now, derms have been telling me for years about OC Eight's mattifying powers. I just hadn't gotten around to trying it. But my skin was such a pimply, oily disaster that I started hunting around for something to keep me looking human this summer. And when I saw they made an acne products, I threw down my credit card immediately. Amazon's one-click ordering is a dangerous thing.

Now, if you don't have oily skin, you have no need for this at all it's not a moisturizer and there's no SPF in it. All it does is keep shine anyway while helping combat the pimples that often come with oiliness. But for someone like me, it's a lifesaver. It's the only thing that ensures I still have makeup on at the end of the day.

If this sounds like your product soulmate, you can click here to pick up a tube. It's not cheap, but I figure but I only plan on using it for the summer, so no big deal.
