    I was really excited about this product initially and loved the soft matte finished. I did not love the container. It is hard to just get a small amount on the lid and on to your kabuki brush. But...

    this amazing powder makes me use my Studio fix fluid more often!.. I noticed that SFF does not oxidize when i put this over it .. and my foundation stays put and matte !

    I went everywhere trying to get this! I live in NYC, and I ended up having to order it from MACpro online because every store was sold out. Thank god I got it! This is the most amazing stuff EVER!...

    I have dry skin and just wanted something to make it appear smoother and make cover up a little redness since I rarely wear foundation. It doesn't really help with the redness but it does make my...

    This is a finely milled powder that looks white in colour, but ends up transparent on the skin. This is probaby not the best product for my dry skin, because my skin ends up getting flaky by the...

    Great product for oil control, but after a few days of using it I noticed my skin started to get really dry. The skin on my chin started to peel a little. I don't know what they use in it but I...

    I love the finish this product gives. It sets liquid foundation really well. I definitely believe it was worth the money.

    This isn't very good for oil control if you're an oily girl. It has NOWHERE near the oil control that Blot Powder has. However it is very finely milled and that makes it good for using sparingly in...

    I was going to try MUFE's HD powder but I figured why not try MAC's cause it's cheaper and I've read fairly good reviews on here. I have really really oily skin so I'm always down to try something...

    Unfortunately, this powder did not work for me. It did nothing to keep my oily skin at bay; in fact, it made me oilier. After two days of wearing this, I developed small surface whiteheads in the...
