Mattifier recommendations please

I am 51 and still have an oily t zone, every time I find a good mattifier it gets discontinued, I loved Cliniques Instant Perfector and Body Shop Wonderblur, I think they both had silicone in that gave them a smooth silky feel on the skin and helped keep the oil at bay, can anyone recommend me something to replace?

Collection. That seems siliconey and has witch hazel in it. Make sure you get the one that indicates it has witch hazel in it though. Still debating how mattifying it is though.

Thank you, only £4 and seems to be what I was looking for!

Have you tried the Body Shop Instamatte? This is quite good I think.

This is the best mattifer ever. However it's complicated to use with liquid foundation as you have to apply foundation at exactly the right interval after the mattifer or it falls off. I think the tube says to use after foundation or 10 mins before. But it's better than the Instamatte which is basically silicone in a tube.

Collection do an eye one as well. Seems to be ok for me.

Silicone in a tube is what I'm afterSmile. I've now got Body Shop Instamatte too but think I prefer the Collection one.

I find the Collection one really good. Have used for a few years now and most days keeps my very oily t zone at bay all day. I personally found it better than the Body Shop Instamatte Smile
