Coastal Scents Silica Spheres

I love this powder!  I use this after the rest of my routine, and just a light dusting helps control oil and gives a great finish.  It goes on transparent and doesn't change the appearance of my makeup at all, it just gives a soft-focus look.  It keeps me looking nice and shine-free for hours, but not a dull kind of matte.  This is the same thing (100% silica) as MUFE HD Powder, but only about $7 after shipping for a huge amount!

I've been meaning to try this! I love adding CS serecite to my EDM base, so I think I would like this too!

This stuff actually does help with my oiliness, and that's saying a alot because NOTHING helps keep my oiliness under control. Leaves the skin with a very smooth, matte finish. & the price is incredible. Just be sure to not inhale this stuff as it does fly everywhere while applying!!

You should definitely give it a try King Taco.  I've been really happy with it, I have some mixed with NR that I keep with me in my purse to reapply during the day, it's a nice combo.  So even if it's too much on its own it can certainly be tweaked.

I read so much controversy about this product that I was wary of trying it but I need some major oil control (especially in the summer) so I might just give it a go..

I have ordered a sample of this and can't wait to try it out! I hope it works for me too.

I got the sample today and so far so good! It seems to be working well. I think I need to use a tiny bit more than I did today (used really really little of it since I wasn't sure how much to use). And I am very likely to order more once the sample runs out.

I LOVE this stuff. It really does make your pores disappear! I have the MUFE version and CS, and the results are exactly the same. Why pay $30 for something you can get for $4? That seems ridiculous.

And you get waaay more product for the $4!  I don't understand people who buy the MUFE, especially ones who know about the CS version.

I'd like to try this out. Will the 1 oz of the product come in a baggie or a small jar?

It comes in a pretty large jar, but there's no sifter, so I recommend buying one of their sifter jars for 80something cents when you purchase.
