There aren't many makeup products that leave me feeling totally ickified, but Urban Decay's
De-Slick Mattifying Powder ($28) is one of them. Everything from the application method to the way it looks and feels on your face is a colossal disaster.
The hard-pressed light lavender (although it claims to be translucent) powder is difficult to get onto your brush, so you are pretty much forced to use the puff that comes inside.

New for fall is another unbelievable product by
Givenchy called
Prisme Foundation. This time, it's a powder foundation that promises to make your skin look as flawless as the face of the brand, Liv Tyler. Well, it doesn't promise...

About a month ago I told you about the new
Chanel Mat Lumière Foundation. I've been using the SPF 15 liquid formula for a couple of days now and I am so happy with it, I wanted to share some feedback with you.
It glides on smoothly, and all you need is about two pumps to go the distance to cover your face and the top of your neck.

Watch out flawless skin, here comes the newest foundation collection from
Chanel called Mat Lumière. Although it's not due out until September, this new formula is already making headlines. Inspired by light, Mat Lumière draws light onto skin creating an illuminating effect, all the while also creating a matte veil (hence the name).
Lola Cosmetics Refine Shine Anti-Shine Gel ($24) is a water based mattifying liquid that can be worn either under or over your makeup. Creator Victoria Jackson wanted to invent something absorbent that can be applied to the skin anytime you feel a like you're becoming a little bit greasy.
This blotting gel is formulated with tons of
antioxidants like guava and grape seed which help to close pores, soften wrinkles and create a velvety smooth finish.
