This is a decent pressed powder for oily skin which I still have as a middle aged adult! I had used this pressed powder during my teenage years to blot & touch up my oily face & it worked really wel...Read more

I find the shade range very poor.

This was just a pretty basic powder not at all special nor did it help with shine control.

Looked very powdery on the skin.

I have acne prone oily skin and tried this pressed powder and it made my face break out like crazy. I heard it was good for oily skin but it made my skin oilier. I threw it away and will never use thi...Read more

I dont like this at all. It was pretty flakey and cakey when appropriately applied. The applicator it comes with is cheap as well is the packaging. Very plastic-y. I wouldn't recomend it, there are lo...Read more

This really mattifies and smooths the skin when I first apply it. It can tend to have a lot of fallout if you swirl your brush, so I would recommend doing the patting or wiggling a brush into the pro...Read more

Doesn't give coverage by itself, but is good for setting foundation. I didn't like the tones, none of them really matched my skin. Nothing special about it, can go without it.

This stuff works great at controlling shine. Does not break me out like a lot of other pressed powders. I can see it becoming chalky if you put to much on at a time. Don't swipe it, pat it on. The pac...Read more

Best powder I've tried yet! It doesn't cake too bad - although it does on occasion, so I took one lippie off. It stops my shine & I don't need to constantly reapply it. I don't like the packaging bu...Read more

This is a great powder for anybody with sensitive/acne prone skin. Wears well, and last a long time without touchups.
