This powder is ok. But I guess I just find it a pain to dig into it to get anything. Certainly won't work with a brush for me. This is 1 of the 5 powders I own, love the color match (medium 300), b...Read more

In my quest to find the perfect powder, I tried this. It advertised clear skin, and I'm a teenager, I figured I'd give it a go. It's a powder. The product is difficult to get out of the container onto...Read more

This product is VERY similar to a product that Clean & Clear used to make -- the blue "shine control" powder. I used that product back in the day (all through high school) and I LOVED it. This Almay p...Read more

I love this powder, But I would describe it as translucent. The salicylic acid gives my face some protection against breakouts. I am a 50ish woman with, yes still oily skin. I use a moisturizing found...Read more

I have a hard time finding a concealer that matches my skin - this in Light 100 matches well - but don't expect it to cover even the most minor flaws. It may even your skin tone, but it is far too tra...Read more

Not a fan of this powder. Didnt help with break outs, all the colors are a bit too tan, hate the puff they give you and i dont like the constancy and the finish of this powder its too heavy i think.
