    If you don't need a lot of coverage, like me, its a good product. It lightens up your skin (makes it look brighter) and minimizes shine. However, if you need lots of coverage, try something else.

    Ummmm....NO coverage at all? Why even bother? This product is so sheer, you may as well not put anything on your face. Doesn't conceal redness, doesn't mattify, doesn't do anything. I accidently...

    This overall is a great foundation. I find that it goes on quite smoothly but in my opinion slightly not as buildable compared to other mineral foundations. If a lot is put on, it looks a little...

    I too use this as a setting powder. It is gives a wonderful soft finish and feels very smooth to the touch. One very, very nice product!

    I saw this talked about on Good Morning America, and wanted to know what could possibly be so good in an NYC product. It's a fantastic setting powder. Not great for just a foundation, but as a...

    I'm a devoted user of NYC loose mineral foundation and I thought this would be a less messy alternative. No. It does not cover like the loose foundation at all. The lightest color is just a...

    Overall, this foundation is worth it for what you pay. I don't use the little kabuki brush that comes with it just cuz it takes way too long using it to buff the powder in. Instead, I use my ELF...

    Since I love NYC's Loose Mineral Foundation, I thought I'd pick this up for on-the-go, esp for the price. Unfortunately, it didn't work out as planned. Pressed powders, imo, always end up looking...

    For $4.00 and change I bought this at Rite Aid drugstore. It has an SPF of 12. It gives good buildable, soft focus coverage. I bought this in "natural medium shade" which is a bit dark for fair...

    Powder in general alone tends to make my skin very dry, even with moisturiser. Personally, I prefer full coverage liquid or creme foundations for my skin. But this is a pretty good powder...
