What the gurus are saying
This quick-drying matte formula earns praise for blending easily and working especially well over makeup and on the body. It contains alcohol, which speeds application but may irritate sensitive skin; those with oily skin tend to prefer it most. One thing to note: while it blends out mostly clear, some report a slight white cast, particularly for those with deeper skin tones.

Ingredients like these draw water into the surface layers and slow how fast it leaves. The evidence is for comfort, softness and hydration rather than for changing the structure of the skin.
