The Anti-Shine Base Lotion is the mattifying treatment of Your Good Skin skincare line. Done to fit into the smallest makeup bag ever, it’s been created for all those shy girls who run fast as the light to the closest toilet to blot their face.

YourGoodSkin Anti-Shine Base Lotion promises 12 hours of oil-free skin.

Does it make your skin looking good and you feeling good? If you follow me on IG, you know already what I think about!

YourGoodSkin Anti-Shine Base Lotion is a gentle face product available exclusively at Boots and it’s part of a skincare range – Your Good Skin – , created with a pool of more than 1000 women.

The product: packaging

Compact, light and handy, the YourGoodSkin Anti-Shine Base Lotionis stored in a tiny white and gold 30 ml-bottle with a pump dispenser. It’s incredibly small but contains enough product for a daily usage before makeup as one pump is enough to cover one’s critical areas!

Formula and texture
The YourGoodSkin Anti-Shine Base Lotion has a light pearly cream to jelly texture with a fresh, slightly floral, soothing scent. It absorbs quickly and leaves no traces, no powdery after feel: just a 100% matte skin. Its formula is anti-ageing and features some antioxidant key ingredients like Vitamin C and Green Tea extract, with Springanine  – to balance skin sebum production – plus, it’s free of parabens and synthetic oils. The more I use this mattifying lotion, the more I’m sure: its formula is as light as you can secretly dream of.

How to use
The Anti-Shine Base Lotion is recommended as part of Your Good Skin-based skincare routine: after the Balancing Skin Concentrate and before the SPF 30 Anti Oxidant Day Cream. All across the face but I just use it on my T-zone an and chin, my critical areas. You can include YourGoodSkin Anti-Shine Base Lotion in your regimen by simply “placing it”  after your serum and before your daily face cream. I use it after the YourGoodSkin Balancing Skin Concentrate and before my day cream Boots Simply Sensitive Day Moisturizer 15 SPF. It’s a working match and doesn’t clog my pores!

PROS:

• it has a gentle formulation (parabens and oil-free)
• its feels light to the skin
• a delicate scent
• it doesn’t clog your pores
• it gives a quick matte effect
• it gets absorbed quickly
• it acts as a base

CONS:

• it’s effective for less than 12 hours
• it isn’t available worldwide (only in the UK and US)

I appreciate this lotion very much and I use it every day I have to go outside, ending up to be a nice primer for my skin! It’s so tiny that I fear to finish it sooner than expected but it’s a product to be used in a “targeted way”.
