Introducing 33 Mosaic Drops Mattifying: The Newest Addition to Maria Galland's Mosaic Drops Line

A few months ago, I shared my experience with Mosaic Drops, a trio of 28-day serums launched by Maria Galland. After using them thoroughly, I was once again impressed by the results that this renowned French brand consistently delivers.

Today, I am excited to introduce the latest member of the family, 33 Mosaic Drops Mattifying, which promises to mattify, hydrate, and balance the skin.

Initially, I was skeptical about the mattifying aspect, as I have preferred a radiant complexion for years—more shine, the better! However, I realized that not all shine is desirable, and some can be classified as unwanted. So, I decided to give this serum a chance.

This turned out to be a great decision.

The Mosaic Drops act like a shock treatment, designed for 28 consecutive days of use. As mentioned earlier, they can be used individually or in combination with one another. Previously, I mixed them, but this time I opted to use Mattifying on its own.

To refresh your memory, the other three serums are Hydrating, Illuminating (my personal favorite), and Lifting.

Mattifying is specifically formulated for individuals with combination or oily skin and is also highly recommended for male skin, which tends to be thicker. Additionally, it serves as an excellent option for those dealing with acne—both adolescent and adult—or for areas prone to shine, such as the T-zone.

Upon application, you will notice an immediate mattifying effect as excess shine diminishes. It effectively reduces oiliness while maintaining hydration and skin balance. The serum minimizes pores thanks to niacinamide and saccharide isomerate, resulting in a more even skin texture.

Moreover, the inclusion of Emiliania huxleyi helps bolster the skin's defenses, enhancing its resilience against external aggressors and pollution while keeping it hydrated and comfortable.

By reducing oil production, Niacinamide can also assist in diminishing dark spots and evening out skin tone.

The texture of the serum, like all Maria Galland products, is a delight—milky and lightweight, it seamlessly blends into the skin and absorbs within seconds. It can be applied both morning and night on clean skin, with just one drop sufficient for the face and neck.

This lightweight texture will particularly appeal to men who often seek quick-absorbing formulations.

You can find 33 Mosaic Drops Mattifying available in a 15ml size for approximately 59 euros.

My experience with Mattifying has been positive, especially regarding pore minimization and skin tone. However, I must admit that my favorite remains Illuminating, as it imparts such a beautiful glow that gives the skin a healthy appearance, making it hard to dethrone from my top spot.
