I ripped open the box and headed into my bathroom upstairs so I could lean over the sink, get close, and see this baby in action. As I rolled it across my skin — mind you, this is at about 2 p.m. after having my makeup on my combination skin all day — it disappeared all of my midday shine. Like magic — poof! — gone.
I was a little worried that after using this on a complexion that wasn't freshly washed, I'd end up with breakouts or clogged pores, but the beauty of this device is that you can remove the volcanic stone every 2-3 uses (or more often, if you'd like) and wash it with soap and water to remove any makeup, oil, bacteria, etc.
And in a world where sustainability is becoming more and more important, the idea of keeping this tiny little roller in my purse for a midday touch up — instead of going through packages upon packages of blotting paper — just seems to make sense.

Overall, I'm happy to decided to go onto TikTok that day because I truly discovered a product that I'd like to have within arms reach everyday until the end of time (or until my skin decides to be less oily), but... now I'm fully aware that I need to limit my time on the app so I still have enough money to pay my mortgage at the end of the month.
