A lightweight face primer from a dermatologist-recommended brand, built to control shine and blur the look of pores under makeup. It uses niacinamide and is non-comedogenic, paraben-free, mineral-oil-free and dye-free, so it suits oily and combination skin as well as normal skin. It is a skincare-leaning primer rather than a silicone-heavy pore filler, so it smooths and mattifies without the slip some rivals give. Buyers rate it well overall, with most praise for shine control and a soft matte finish and some complaints about texture and wear on very oily skin.

Neutrogena Mattifying Primer with Shine Control is a lightweight liquid face primer. It blurs the look of pores and controls shine for a soft matte finish that lasts. It also visibly smooths skin's texture.
The formula contains niacinamide. It is free of parabens, mineral oils and dyes, and it is non-comedogenic, so it won't clog pores. It is made for all skin types and suits oily or shiny skin. Worn under makeup, it helps keep makeup looking fresh all day.
After your skincare routine, apply a thin layer over clean, hydrated skin. Blend it in with your fingertips, then wait one minute before applying makeup. Wear it over your full face or only on oily areas such as the T-zone or chin.
