    I initially opted not to purchase this when I bought my TM, but later decided I really needed something to set my make-up and the MAC setting powder just wasn't doing it for me so I went back and...

    LM translucent is decent powder with affordable price. It's very good at setting foundation and control oil. The only point I don't like about this powder is that it gives me too matte finish....

    This is a really fine powder. It works great for setting makeup for everything eg foundation, lipstick, eye shadow. It's so natural looking without that white powder look even if you put on alot. ...

    I'm very pleased with this loose powder! It doesn't just sit on the face and look powdery.. it actually makes makeup look "finished". The only downside is the packaging. You can't fit the puff...
