    Love this stuff. Sets my MU perfectly. Great on days when I don;t want to wear much. Can be a bit messy. If this had an SPF I would be in heaven.

    his product is a silky powder that reduces shine and sets make-up. I use this product if I know I'm going to sweat. I don't have oily skin but I will use this product to absorb any sweat if I go to...

    I think this is a great product, the only thing to complain about is the price, which is a little steep. But otherwise, the product goes a long way, if you use it with a kabuki brush, the way I do...

    So I read the reviews before I purchased this and I had high expectations … I am so happy to say that it has pretty much lived up to them. It keeps me from blotting as often, I think I have been...

    When you purchase it, just tear out half of the seal that covers the holes. That should take care of the 'sifties' Or better still, leave the seal on and use a sharp needle to punch 4 holes. ...

    This is an amazing powder: Very lightweight, conceals pores, offers matte result that lasts for hours, it's fragrance-free and didn't cause me any break-outs! Only downside is now that i'm tanned,...

    I adore this powder. This is what I wanted MAC Blot to be. I've got incredibly oily skin and this controls shine and oil very well. The powder is white, and while it makes me a little lighter...

    I LOVE this powder, I use it everyday to set my makeup, and I use it when I don't use foundation, like with just bronzer or tinted moisturizer! I can never be without it.
