So sad this is discontinued, it is excellent. I did depot it into a better sifter pot I already had. I prefer a duo-fiber brush for a lighter touch (Shop Miss A also known as AOA has some nice...

I love this powder from Coastal Scents, and have been using it for a long time. Unfortunately, they have discontinued it! Now I have to find new powder.

I have very oily skin that breaks through everything. I've tried primers, milk of magnesium, countless powders, you name it. I always get an awful shiny face. I figured this was so cheap, why not?...

I wanted to add a comparison based on the Coastal Scents and TKB Trading silica powders as I've had experience with both now. Make Up For Ever first turned me on to silica powder but that was...

I have to give this a low score overall because it just didn't work for me. 1. The CS silica spheres is much cheaper than any mainstream brands (including e.l.f.). 2. It gives your skin a...

I'm going to start by saying that I bought a container off Ebay. It was cheap and I was mislead to believe it was more than what I got. That's okay 'cause now I'm going through TKB Trading (1oz is...

I'm giving it a five since it's the same thing as MUFE while the price is very low. Anyone can afford this. When you buy MUFE you pay for the marketing costs and the hype. Apply this sparingly...

I bought a 1oz jar from coastal scents and woa, this is more than I expected! It's probably about..oh..50mL of powder in a 100mL container (roughly). I put some into a sifter container and the...

This powder is fantastic, it is exactly the same as MUFE hd powder. I have tried both and I would never be able to tell the difference. The price for this is amazing, I don't understand why anyone...

This is the first powder I ever find to be too drying for my oily shiny face. This is a remarkable feat on its own. It is also so clumpy, so eating up the healthy-skin-glow off my face. I look like...

This stuff is gold! I have tried many drugstore powders only to find them super cakey on me, and they just don't hold up, at the end of the day I'm left very shiny looking, and I can feel the oil...
