I have been very pleased with the kit for oily skin. After about a week i really noticed the difference in the texture and appearance of my skin. The pores became smaller and my skin looked brighter. The oiliness of my skin calmed a lot although it still gets oily. I have used MAC powder as a blotter which seems to work well. I use the dermal clay cleanser followed by the spray toner, and the pre scrub is used 3 times a week. I only do this at night as i found my skin preferred just a wipe off cleanser in the morning. I didn't like the mattifier though i found it too harsh for my skin, it may suit others though. Again, i have used the MAC mattifier before applying makeup. I would recommend this kit as a starter it really does make a difference to the appearance of your skin.
