Mattify Me! Satisfy Me! DDF Acne Fighting Protocol (review)

Here is my first DDF review since attending their fab product launch last week. Their new Acne Fighting Protocol features two new items that just happen to fit ever so neatly into my series of oil/blemish control product reviews. They're formulated with a unique blend of botanicals (including glycerin, aloe leaf, marigold, ginger root and witch hazel). Specialized ingredients are then added to each evening and day treatment.

PM: Acne Control Treatment

Blurb: A night treatment that deeply penetrates pores to normalize skin by combating existing blemishes while also helping to prevent future acne. Fights and controls acne. Helps keep pores clear. Soothes and restores clarity.

Excellent, excellent, excellent! At the launch, we learned about how important it is to make sure to keep up your skin's "moisture barrier." (Now that I learned this term, I want to fling it around like I have a Ph.D.) The moisture barrier helps your skin stay hydrated so it can heal and renew itself. DDF's active ingredient is salicylic acid (to fight and prevent blemishes). It also contains the special botanical formulation which soothes skin and facilitates the…moisture barrier. So while you're sleeping, you've got clarification, hydration and all kinds of nice things happening. It also goes on very nicely without being goopy or sticky.

AM: Mattifying Oil Control UV Moisturizer (SPF 15)

Blurb: A daily protective moisturizer that controls exterior oils to instantly minimize shine on contact while also helping to protect against harmful UVA/UVB sun damage. Instantly controls shine. Mattifies imperfections. Helps protect from UVA/UVB sun damage.

Fresh from the Land of Really Good Ideas! In addition to the hydrating botanical combo, this moisturizer contains oil absorbing particles and SUNSCREEN. Nice multitasking, DDF! It went on smoothly, looked great under my makeup, hydrated, controlled oil until noon, and pretty much behaved fabulously.

DDF is available at places like Sephora, Ulta, Nordstrom, and on the DDF Website.
