It is an okay loose powder, but not that great. It gives a matte look I do not really like. The powder is not as finely milled as I expected. Would not repurchase.

This is one of my favorite powders. It's very light & airy and doesn't cake anywhere (my skin is dry) it's perfect for setting any foundation.

Very nice loose powder, controls oil very well and gives a nice semi matte to matte finish. Sets makeup very well. However I find Shu Uemura's powder to be much more superior, as well as...
