    I have been using this product for a few years now, going back and forth between level 2 and level 3 (usually level 2 during the winter months and level 3 in the summer when more of a glow kicks...

    I did not like this product. It made me oilier, accentuated my pores, and changed color.....I am trying Laura Geller, we'll see how it has performed by next week.

    Very good for what it is. Prescriptives Virtual Matte Oil-control is a sheer, oil-control pressed powder. Definitely not oily like some compact powders, so I love using it to give me a clean and...

    I really like this powder. I think it is much better than the Mac Blot Powder. First of all, it last longer. Second, the color matches are much better. Does a good job keeping the oily face...

    At first I had my doubts about this, but if you are going for a very matte finish, this is a winner!

    I did not like this product at all. It turned very orange after having it on for only about 5 minutes. It did not control oil very well at all. I would not recommend this.

    I just got this a few days ago and so far, I'm very pleased with it. Level 3 is a good match for my complexion, veering slightly tan but I'll probably get more tan with the eternal summer in...

    This is an aweseome blotting powder for touch ups. I highly recommend this because it controls oil, it's sheer with the tiniest of color deposit, doesn't cake, and does Not make my skin look ashy...

    After using this for a while ... I've come to the conclusion that it's a darn good mattifier. The visible pore problem went away too ... maybe I had to break in the sponge applicator? No breakouts...

    Although the packaging is just OK, the product is fantastic. I wish it came in a Chanel type compact. Anyway, the finish is flawless and helps set the foundation prefectly. My HG powder!
