Everyone who knows me well knows that I can’t leave the house without my coveted charcoal blotting papers. What can I say, I’m an oily gal! That said, blotting sheets only do so much; there are only so many times you can duck behind your office desk or restaurant menu to touch up your face. One solution that isn’t so high-maintenance is a mattifying face powder, and thanks to TikTok (per usual), we found one that acts as a real-life filter for your skin.

Say hello to the Brighten Up! Banana Powder by essence. If it looks familiar to you that’s because it’s going viral on TikTok and consequently selling out at Amazon. Fortunately, you can still scoop it up at Ulta, Target and CVS. The $5 skin-blurring powder yields jaw-dropping results. We’re serious, your jaw will be on the floor after watching @mualesandro’s TikTok try-on, which, by the way, has garnered over seven million views in just two days.

Just look at how his complexion is shiny to begin with and then completely matte and poreless after pressing the powder onto his skin. As he says in the video, he’s “done gatekeeping this $4 powder that makes your pores disappear” because “this essence powder literally looks like Facetune in real life.” At the end, he adds, “I’m wearing this to my grave.”

Uhhhhmmm, SOLD! The difference is day and night, and other TikTokers have taken to the platform to show similarly shocking results. Additional proof: these videos from @themexicanbeauty and @alishasapproach
