Alverde Aqua Mattierende Tagescreme 3 in 1 Perle

I wanted to try a mattifying cream as my t-zone has been so shiny recently that it's starting to get a little out of control (it may have something to do with the weather) so I found myself at the local DM and checking out what's on offer. Alverde Aqua Series mattifying Day Cream 3 in 1 Pearl for normal and combination skin came with a free mono matt eyeshadow in the colour 10 Dark Aubergine so I'm guessing it is a new product that has just been released.

The cream is thicker than I anticipated and was convinced that it will probably clog my pores but the packaging assured me that it will not clog my skin. I needed two applications for it to really mattify my t-zone but it lasted the majority of the day so not bad at all considering that it's a natural product. The only caution I could think of when using this product is that it needs to be used up rather quickly as it is a somewhat natural product and can turn funny when left longer than, say, 6 months.
