I absolutely love this product and have been using it for about 10 years, even though I've had other products to try. If I apply too much, it dries out my skin and makes my pores more noticeable, so I dab a small amount on my nose. My skin tends to produce oil easily in the T-zone, but this product is very useful as it helps improve the condition.
I bought this product after a similar House of Rose product was discontinued. It's a similar sebum-absorbing powder that leaves skin feeling smooth. I wish the opening of the tube was thinner. I only need it on my nose, so a lot comes out. I also apply the rest to my forehead, but half the amount is enough. If this were improved, I would like it even more.
This gel-type serum can be used day and night. I've never really liked T-zone primers before, because they tend to dry out, break down messily, flake, or clog pores. This gel is perfect for your skincare routine, and all you have to do is apply it with your usual makeup routine! It's truly shine-free. It may not be well-known, but it's a masterpiece, so I recommend it to anyone with pores, oiliness, sensitive skin, or combination skin. #fancl #porecover #sensitiveskin #around40

My oily T-zone after waking up is gone! It's not powdery or feels like it's clogging my pores, it's just a normal serum, so why? I use it in the morning before applying makeup, but during the day, I don't feel as much of an effect, probably because I wear makeup bases on top, but I was so impressed with how it turned out after waking up that I'll definitely buy it again! I think it deserves a higher rating.
