Maybelline Fit Me Matte + Poreless Powder
by Maybelline · makeup
Editor's Take
Silica and volatile solvents deliver the matte blur the bottle promises, but the base is pure drugstore petrochemicals.

- Formula Sustainability: 5.9 / 10
The Verdict
This is a credible oil-control primer that actually does what it says: the silica system adsorbs surface oils, the silylate blurs pores, and the isododecane base sets fast for a matte finish. The efficacy is solid, the technology is functional, and the texture is lightweight. The trade-off is the chemistry: it's built on petrochemical solvents, synthetic polymers, and a fragrance mix with four disclosed allergens. If you need immediate matte performance and don't mind conventional drugstore ingredients, it works. If you're shopping for clean formulation or sustainable chemistry, skip it , this is a performance-first formula that prioritizes finish over green credentials.
