    I got this because I have a not-so-pretty, oily T-zone that shows up around lunchtime. I use this as my setting powder on top of my liquid foundation and my skin stays a beautiful, matte finish...

    I do like this, however, I don't use it very often. On really oily days, I dust this lightly over my entire face after foundation (if I wear it) and before I put on my finishing powder. I also wear...

    A great powder for concealing redness. It is drying and can look chalky, so the puff went straight to the bin and I just use a concealer brush to apply to spots. I have used a light dusting to...

    This really clears up acne without irritation for people who can't use benzoyl peroxide. It has sulfur in it so it dries your skin which is nice during the summer but is a bit too much to use...
