Vichy Normaderm Total Mat - 30ml - $27.95 - the newest edition to the Normaderm family is a fresh hydrating gel that absorbs sebum and perspiration to prevent shine, even in extreme conditions - heat, humidity, stress, intense physical effort or whatever else you can think of thanks to the ultimate absorbing powder of perlite - which has an active ingredient of volcanic origin and can absorb more than 3 times its weight in water and encourages the evaporation of perspriation.
Don't worry that it will be too drying either, it also contains glycerine to hydrate the skin for up to 24 hours. As well the formula contains salicylic acid, a keratolytic, anti-bacterial, anti-inflammatory active ingredient that gently exfoliates for a more even skin tone.
Not only does it make a great mattifyer and makeup base for your face, you can also use it on your hands to prevent clamminess - try that the next time you have a job interview!
Hypoallergenic, suitable for sensitive skin and paraben free.
Proactiv Daily Oil
Control - 50ml - $23 - a revolutionary,
lightweight skin-care formula that absorbs oil and eliminates shine to keep skin
balanced, stop the production of excess oil and keep skin matte, especially in the
T-Zone. All it takes is one invisible thin layer to keep makeup in place - resisting streaking
and lasting longer, for fewer touchups.

Now that the weather is warming up, my thoughts are turning towards how oily and greasy I know my skin will soon look! Enter Fresh Umbrian Clay Mattifying Serum
- 30ml - $40 - specially designed for normal to oily skin, this
lightweight treatment formula hydrates and tones while minimizing the
appearance of pores and controlling shine.
What's its secret? Umbrian Clay - with a uniquely high mineral content that neutralizes acidity - too much of which can muddle skin tone and texture and cause breakouts - as well, it clarifies the complexion. Also in the serum is: ginger root, cinnamon bark and burnet root extracts - to reduce the size and appearance of pores, control excess sebum production and clarify the complexion; meadowsweet extract - regulates sebum to control oil and shine; olive leaf extract - rich in antioxidants that help restore suppleness to dry, damaged skin and protect against free radicals; cucumber extract - rich in amino acids and possesses powerful anti-inflammatory properties that soothe, hydrate and cool irritated skin; rosewater - for its balancing, soothing and astringent properties; lavender flower water - to hydrate, tone and soften the skin; and lemon fruit extract - to tone and condition the skin as well and regenerate and exfoliate.
I love that they've created this as a serum rather than a cream as I do love the light feel of a serum. You can wear it on its own or if you want more moisture, follow up with Umbrian Clay Oil-Free Lotion or your regular moisturizer. I've been using by itself in my oily areas and with just a touch of moisturizer in my dry zones and it feels great. I have also noticed that I have to do a powder touch up much less often during the day so I am very hopeful that this will be my summer saviour!
