    The hype around this product is completely justified. This is the least powdery looking powder I have ever used (in a good way) and does not cake up at all, even when re-applying after a sweaty...

    this is really good for the first application of the day but it doesn't do retouching well.

    YouTube made me buy this and now I'm on my 3rd jar. I use for this for baking and all over setting. It's not too drying, it's finely milled , smooth, and doesn't alter your base colour.

    The best setting powder for combination skin. I highly recommend this. Never goes on cakey and it blurs skin to look like perfection. Very long-lasting. Does not emphasize pores or dry patches.
