Do they even still make this? I did not find it "bad" but it does have a bit of a dewy sparkly appearance not fully matte (which is OK by me coz I strobe), but if matte is what u want then I'd...

White cast is all I can say about this product. Specially if you are tan or darker skin tones beware, this is not translucent, it looks WHITE!

This stuff can do in a pinch. I picked it up while on vacation and am currently wearing it over Covergirl 3-1 Foundation, and it's okay. It's not as finely milled as many other mineral powders...

This is probably my favorite powder ever, but I'm not too fond of the packaging and the mini kabuki that comes with it. The product spills very easily and the brush is too small, but the powder is...

I like this stuff but really dislike the packaging. The powder tends to spill all over the place and the holes are too big. This isn't something that I can just throw into my bag, because the...

I'm a fan. The reason this is getting four stars rather than five, is that it appears to show up a veil-like dullness on the face in photos. Other than that - it works well with moderately oily...

I got this powder for about $9 at walmart to set my foundation and possibly use over just concealer. I am pretty pale so I figured I needed to get the "translucent" one as the lightest was a tad...

I put it on after applying Maybelline's Mineral Power foundation. It creates a smooth finish while helping reduce the look of large pores. The main ingredient here is corn starch so I guess in a...

I used this for the first time this morning. The sifter is not very forgiving, so quite a bit of shaking/tapping was needed to get the product out. Also, the brush it came with did feel like broom...

I'm not a huge fan of powder and this is the only one I've ever tried. It's easy to apply and it sets my foundation beautifully without looking really powdery.

I really like this finishing veil. I think it makes my makeup lasts all day and I'd definitely recommend it. I live in Florida and it gets pretty hot and I used this to set my concealer when I went...

This powder is ok, it hardly does anything though. I used it to absorb the excessive oil on my face and it's the only thing the powder is good for. I guess this is what it's supposed to do?

This is a nice product for the price. It is fragrance free, preservative free and finely milled that it applies like a dream. It is the perfect finishing touch to set foundation and give a smooth,...

I love this, I use the Mineral Power foundation and when I put this over it, it just finishes the look. I love it. If my foundation looks a little more darker than it should, this lightens it up...

After almost a year of ignoring this powder at the bottom of my stash, i decided to whip it out and give it a try. This runs you about $6 at Target, less if it's on sale. Anyway, I bought it when...

Tried this after my BE Mineral Veil ran out, and although it's not quite as good at setting foundation, it vanishes pores and neutralizes redness around the nose. Unfortunately, it doesn't mattify....
