There are a zillion makeup primers out there and well I haven’t tried them all, I’ve tried quite a few. Most of them ended up being Mr. Right Now. However, Givenchy’s Mister Mat is my new Mr. Right. This primer is suitable for all skin types and only a small amount is needed. I wish the primer had SPF in it, but it’s so light that when used with a sunscreen or moisturizer beforehand, it doesn’t feel like you’re wearing too much. After application I use loose powder mineral foundation with a touch of eye makeup and I’m ready to go.

Mister Right aka Mister Mat’s secret to velvety smooth skin is that it hydrates with silicone gum extracts. Also, plant extracts work to control sebum production, which provides a long-lasting matte effect that remains light enough to let skin breath. I’m all about letting the skin breath; less really is more. The subtle light-blue pearlescent shimmers counteract a dull look and minimize the appearance of large pores, leaving skin looking bright and glowing with health.

Givenchy’s Mister Mat can be used alone or under makeup. It really aids in controlling natural oil and sheen so all that’s left is the skin looking pristine.
