Simple solutions to keep your skin looking smooth and shine-free, without the fuss.
If you’ve got oily or combination skin, you’re probably familiar with the struggle of keeping shine in check. By midday, the fresh look you started with might be overtaken by excess oil, making your skin look greasy rather than polished. Fortunately, there’s an easy way to keep things under control and maintain a matte, natural finish throughout the day—without overcomplicating your routine.
At MATTR, we believe that skincare and grooming for men should be simple, effective, and easy to use on the go. Here’s how to build a quick, no-fuss routine using only MATTR products that will leave your skin looking fresh, matte, and natural from morning to night.
1. Prep with a Clean, Hydrated Base
Before you start applying any products, make sure your skin is clean and hydrated. While it might seem counterintuitive, oily skin still needs moisture. Skipping this step can actually make your skin produce even more oil to compensate, so a lightweight moisturizer is key to maintaining balanced, healthy skin.
- Cleanse: Use a gentle cleanser every morning to remove excess oil and impurities, giving you a fresh start for the day.
- Moisturize: Opt for an oil-free, lightweight moisturizer that hydrates without adding shine. This step helps create a balanced base that will work with the rest of your products, not against them.
Pro Tip: Avoid heavy or overly greasy moisturizers, as they can contribute to shine. Look for a formula that’s specifically suited for oily or combination skin.
2. Even Out Your Skin Tone with the Skin Fix Concealer
If you have blemishes, dark circles, or areas of uneven skin tone, a good concealer can make all the difference. MATTR’s Skin Fix Concealer is designed to blend naturally into your skin, providing seamless, natural-looking coverage with just a small amount of product. It’s great for targeting specific areas or for an all-over even finish, and it’s incredibly easy to apply—no tools required.
- How to Use: Take a small amount of the Skin Fix Concealer and apply it directly onto any areas you want to even out, like blemishes, scars, or dark circles. Use your fingertip to pat it in, blending the edges so it seamlessly matches the surrounding skin. A little goes a long way, so start small and build up only if needed.
- Natural Matte Finish: The Skin Fix Concealer has a natural finish that controls shine and gives your skin a smoother, more polished look. It’s perfect for oily skin, as it won’t add extra shine or make your skin feel greasy.
Pro Tip: For those with oily skin, focus on areas that tend to get shiny, like the forehead, nose, and chin, to create a more balanced, matte appearance across your whole face.
3. Tackle Patches and Add Definition with the Beard/Brow Fix
If you have a beard, mustache, or brows that could use a little extra volume or definition, MATTR’s Beard/Brow Fix is the perfect solution. This product helps fill in sparse areas, add definition to your beard or brows, and even blend away grays for a fuller, more polished look.
For men with oily skin, a well-defined beard or brow line can help frame your face, adding structure and balance to your look—especially when your skin is matte and even. The Beard/Brow Fix gives you control over these details with a quick swipe.
- How to Use: Take a small amount on your fingertip and apply it to areas in your beard or brows that need filling or shaping. Gently pat it in for a natural look, or layer it up if you want a bit more definition. The formula is buildable, so you can achieve the exact level of coverage you want.
Pro Tip: Use the Beard/Brow Fix to sharpen your beard line, define your sideburns, or even out any uneven patches. It’s also perfect for touch-ups on the go if you notice any areas that need a quick refresh during the day.
4. Quick Touch-Ups with The Ultimate Fix Palette
If you’re out and about and need a quick touch-up, MATTR’s Ultimate Fix Palette is a compact solution that’s perfect for on-the-go shine control and evening out your skin tone. The palette contains multiple shades, so you can easily adjust to match your skin perfectly without having to guess. Plus, it’s designed for application with your fingers—no brushes or sponges needed.
- How to Use: Use the shades in the palette to touch up any areas that need extra coverage or oil control. You can use a light shade to brighten your under-eyes or a darker shade to blend out blemishes and even your skin tone. Simply dab a bit of product on your finger and pat it into the skin wherever needed.
- Travel-Friendly: With its built-in mirror, the Ultimate Fix Palette is perfect for quick touch-ups during the day. Whether you’re battling shine or want to refresh your look after a long meeting, this palette makes it easy to maintain a polished appearance.
Pro Tip: Use the palette on areas that tend to get oily, like your T-zone (forehead, nose, and chin), to keep those spots matte throughout the day. If you have an event or a long day ahead, the palette is your go-to for staying fresh and even-toned on the move.
