Man I love this thing. first of all I have pretty oily skin which is at its worst during the summer months, so this summer I needed something that would help stop the oilies in their tracks. I tried the Murad oil control mattifier in the past and wasn't impressed it was overpriced, smelled like glue, and gave me whiteheads. So I decided to give Paula's Choice a chance and I'm so glad I did so.
The Shine Stopper is white in color but goes on clear and feels sort of powder like once applied, maybe thats what they meant by microsponge technology (written on the tube). It has no smell at all and best of all TRULY CONTROLS MY OILY SKIN. After a long day of work my oil stays at bay for at least 6 hours without any kind of blotting. Its $21.95 for 1fl oz. tube which is a little bit high but honestly you don't need a ton only dab it on the oily parts of your face.
