Promising review: "This is the BEST setting/mattifying powder I have ever bought! I have super oily/sensitive skin with large pores and this stuff works like a dream. This is a picture of me AFTER working six hours and not blotting/touching up at all. I almost can’t stop checking myself out in the mirror! Definitely give this a shot!"—Dana Waterhouse

Promising review: "I really love this foundation and usually have a hard time finding a drugstore price foundation that works for my very oily, acne prone skin with large visible pores. This works wonderfully! The coverage is light but buildable. It does reduce the look of my pores and helps to keep the oil in check. It also has not caused my skin to break out, which is fantastic! I will definitely be buying again." —CryH

Promising review: "I don't know how these little guys work, but work they do. I had one blemish for so long that I assumed it and I would be cremated together when that time came. Two of these guys later, and not only was the blemish gone, the portal through which it came from the underworld into my life was miraculously not only closed but healed. I'm now working on my new identity without the devil's own blemish, which is a refreshing change from my usual daily partnership with that soulless eruption. Thank you, Nexcare." —Bmac

Promising review: "This is my first review and I had to make an exception. I love this moisturizer, and I had to share it. I have thick, oily Italian skin and a lot of times my skin regime dries my skin out very bad. This moisturizer softens my face without bringing my oil back. It’s really important to me to use natural products and I was skeptical at first, but I’m so happy I bought this." — Amazon Customer

Promising review: "I would like to start off by saying I never write reviews. However, this is something I have to share. I have suffered with acne and acne scars for a long time. I was scared because my skin is naturally oily and i thought I would break out. I was so wrong, my skin stopped getting acne, it was brighter and smoother than ever before. My acne scars have all vanished in a course of only a couple months. This will literally change your life forever." —Domonique

Promising review: "I have never used setting spray before. I bought this after reading several reviews and doing research FOR WEEKS! I am super happy with the results that it keeps my makeup in place and that it’s healthy. I have combination oily skin so with makeup i have to do tons of research before buying and afterwards so that i don’t look like a greasy monster all the time. With this setting spray, for the first time in years I had makeup on all day today. I wanted to share this because i have not been able to do this in over 10 years. Thank you so much. This product is amazing." —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "I love this sponge! It was a little intimidating when it comes and it's hard as a rock, but it softens up quickly after you run it under the water. When I use it, when I squeeze out the water I can literally see the oils from my face floating on the water! Crazy! It also leaves my face so smooth and soft after using. I will definitely purchase again!" —Bshea

Promising review: "I am somewhat of a moisturizer junkie and have tried so many products. I received a sample of this and immediately knew I needed more. It has such a nice cooling feeling and does not leave my skin feeling heavy or oily. My skin alternates between dry and oily (depending on the weather), and this product leaves my skin always feeling refreshed. It is on the more expensive side but I feel that it's worth it. Also, a little bit goes a long way. One pump takes care of my whole face and neck. I've had this bottle for about a month now and still have about 60-70% left." —Sarah Myrna

Promising review: "I bought this about a month ago after seeing all the hype it got on BuzzFeed. I have oily, sensitive, acne-prone skin, and have always been wary of chemical exfoliants-most just tend to irritate my skin and make me break out more. After nearly a month of use, my skin is more radiant, softer/smoother, breaking out less, and even I'm starting to see a reduction in the size of my huge pores (which no product has ever given me before-so yay!) and a better oil balance in my skin." —Knonymously

Promising review: "I've seen these online and thought I'd give them a try... I'll never wash my face without these again! I have a pretty in-depth skin care routine and this these little wonders cover the missing piece. The silicone is super soft and the ergonomically design is easy to hold. I'm actually using less face wash now. My kids are using them now and are super fun for them to use. And I even gave one to my husband who loathes washing his face. I highly recommend and for the price you can't beat it!" —G. Pathak

Promising review: "This facial wash leaves my skin so soft, it helps the oily zones and even the dry ones. I have to say that it's thicker than most face washes I've used in the past, but it foams nicely and the tea tree oil smell is really nice!" —Stephani

Promising review: "I've been dealing with acne for over 10+ years + oily skin. So you can imagine the acne scars my skin has. I've used TONS of facial scrubs/masks that claim that they brighten your skin. The Acure facial scrub is the BEST and worth-your-money facial scrub I've ever used. My acne scars lightened almost immediately after use." —Tiffany

Promising review: "Sunscreen is super important! I've had issues finding a good sunscreen because they always leave a white cast on my face and are so oily they clog my pores and cause me to break out. I tried this product out and I have to say, it's probably one of the best sunscreens I've ever tried. It has the highest level of zinc oxide that I've found so far, it goes on smoothly, doesn't leave an oily film or white cast on my face and it hasn't caused any breakouts." —Ashley

Promising review: "My main purpose for using them is I have oily skin, and at some point in the day, I really need to wash my face. These are incredibly convenient in their individual packaging so I can just take one with me each day, and taking it into a restroom is not difficult or obvious. Not sure why anyone would care why I'm wiping my face down in the office, but usually I like to look at my face when I'm done. I also like to use them at night when I'm too lazy to wash my face." —Daniel
