This is a very good product to use right after cleansing and before applying your oil-free moisturizer or (better yet) a BHA. It gives the skin a matt even feeling and has made my skin break-out far less often then it used to after 2 weeks of use . i Recommend it - though only use it on the T-ZONEand oily areas of your face since it tends to be somewhat drying and irritating when applyed at non-oily arreas.
