Battle Summer’s Shiny Skin

What: Shiseido Pureness Matifying Stick Oil-Free $25

My handbag has a new best friend— this miracle stick absorbs the excess oils on my face that the summer heat seems to magically cause to appear. I apply it before I put on my make up, and it seems to give me a long-lasting matte finish no matter how humid the subway gets. It also works for mid-day touch-ups or the quick dash before happy hour.
