The weightless formula dries to a soft, powder-like finish that smoothes out skin imperfections. Can be worn alone or under makeup to help it stay in place all-day long. Dab a tiny bit on during the day to maintain results.

All Paula’s Choice products are 100% fragrance free, clinically proven to be non-irritating, and never tested on animals.

The weightless formula dries to a soft, powder-like finish that smooths out skin imperfections. Can be worn alone or under makeup to help it stay in place all day long. Dab a tiny bit on during the day to maintain results.

Dispense a pea-sized amount and using clean fingers or a foundation sponge, dab (do not rub) lightly over oily areas as the last step of your skincare routine or over your foundation.

If you wish to apply powder or blush over Shine Stopper, let Shine Stopper set completely first. Reapply as needed.

IT WORKSSSS

I don't know what sorcery this is but it freaking WORKS! Put OVER your makeup for best results.. I honestly don't know how I survived without this stuff. If you're questioning buying this product, just go for it- you won't look back!

My savior!

My extremely oily face always ruins my make-up until I gave up doing it for years. Brave my soul and tried using Shine Stopper and voila~ no more splotchy foundation and miserable eyeliner :D

Impressive!

One of THE BEST shine controlling products ever! This formula is applied after your makeup is complete and is amazingly effective. It does not disturb your makeup and does make your complexion shine free for hours. After trying many other products I can honestly say this one is THE BEST!

A Solution for the Shine

I LOVE this product. I literally don't go anywhere out of the house without it. I will admit, that I don't get the advertised 6-8 hour results. I apply once every 5 hours or so. Sometimes I don't apply, and I wait until a time in the day when I notice I need a little help. Then I only have to apply once, and I'm good through the rest of the work day. I have a shine problem, and I've NEVER found something that works as well as this. PLUS, it makes my face silky, and smooth. Sometimes I have to catch myself and stop rubbing my cheeks!
