I was positively surprised with this product. It's not drying. It's not noticeable. It's not comedogenic. The coverage is light, but I wasn't using it alone, but as a setting powder over dewy foundati...Read more

WOW! I was in emergency mode trying to replace my broken UD Deslick and ran into Rite-Aid to get any powder. I ended up with this one by random. All I have to say is that this powder is a lot better t...Read more

Translucent is PERFECT for pale skin – I’m very fair and most translucent powders turn yellow or orange on me. If you’re a pale lady you will understand this issue. Even brands like Maybelline and L’O...Read more

For a drugstore product this pressed powder is really good! I really like it. It stays on all day! Its light and has effective coverage, basically it leaves skin flawless! LOVE this product.
