Selfie Redo

I’ve been using this before work for about two weeks and the oil control actually lasts through my afternoon commute, which is rare for me. The soft-focus finish is subtle enough that it doesn’t look like I’m wearing a mask, just a smoother version of my own skin.

The blurring effect is no joke—my skin looks smoothed over in photos without any editing, and my T-zone stays matte past lunch. The niacinamide hasn’t irritated my sensitive areas either, which is a win.

I’ve been blotting my face by 3 p.m. every day for years, so the oil control here is genuinely surprising — my makeup actually stayed put through a full workday. The blurring effect on my cheeks is subtle but real, like a light filter without the powder.
