I fell for the promise of no white cast :( definitely noticeable on darker skin. So far oil is controlled, as usually 1-2 hours after my morning routine, I'm a little greaseball. But skin is currently very matte which explains the 2 stars instead of 0. This moisturizer might be best used for when makeup will be applied on top (it's giving milk of magnesia). I will try it again with makeup, but on its own... it's a no for me dawg.
