As the weather starts
to slowly (very slowly) heat up here in the UK it can begin to affect how your
make up sits on your skin. If you have a combination to oily skin you may find
that your shiny areas are in need of a little extra something however applying
layer upon layer of a mattifying powder isn’t really helping your skin to
achieve a fresh but matte finish.
I have been testing out the latest mattifying blotting
perfector from MURAD. It’s a mirrored compact, which contains a cushioned,
saturated sponge and slim applicator pad.
The sponge inside is infused with marshmallow powder, which
along with soft focus mattifying spheres absorbs the excess oil in the skin,
but doesn’t deplete your skin of moisture.
It also contains
Pomegranate extract to act as an antioxidant and achieve radiance along with
French green clay to absorb oil and detoxify.
The applicator pad is antimicrobial and has a cooling effect
on the skin. This pad is stored neatly away in a separate compartment to avoid
contamination of the product.
What did we think?
Initially I wasn’t
convinced by this product. A wet product on an oily skin, which potentially may
already have a layer of powder on it, seemed like an odd combination. But it
totally works.
Firstly you can apply this as a base primer or you can use
on top of your foundation. Either way you need to dab it on. Don’t swipe
across the skin, as you will disturb the makeup underneath.
When you pat it onto
the skin it feels cooling and fresh but it quickly evaporates and dries almost
instantly. It leaves behind a matte finish to the skin that looks totally fresh
and natural. It doesn’t leave a dry residue and didn’t cause the skin to
tighten once dry.
The cooling finish
would be great to use during the summer months or at times when your skin feels
a little flushed.
A really nice alternative to powder this summer and can be
touched up as many times as you desire with no fear of a cakey finish.
The Murad blotting
perfector is £32 and available here.

I decided to get one of these after your positive review and I have to say i'm really impressed. Its fantastic, I'm looking forward to a shine free summer. It's light on the skin and feels cooling and refreshing when applied. Thanks for the recommendation.
