    The appearance of this product kind of freaks me out, but I first spotted it FOR $1 AT DOLLAR TREE. Worth a shot, right? And it totally exceeded my expectations. This is great for setting my...

    Great for someone with dry skin aka me. This product is great mostly as a setting powder, I dont use it for added coverage. It doesn't cake your face and shows your skin's glow which is what I look...

    translucent powder, makes my skin look blotchy (oily t zone) and overall, an alright pressed powder if you're looking for something cheap and sets your makeup.

    This powder has no extra color. When put on the face, it is sheer. It has decent oil control, but I like more color and better oil control. Will not rebuy.

    Great powder. I use it for setting sometimes but mostly just for touch ups when I start to get shiny. Hasn't caused any breakouts and the colour is pretty much translucent. The only bad...

    This powder really worked for me. It didn't make me look shiny, evened out my skin and stayed on all day! The only thing I'd say is that the powder box it's in broke open right after I used it, and...

    This comes in a nice little package, with the bottom snapping open to reveal a small brush... Overall it's a neat little compact that you can carry easily for convenience. I don't find much use...

    I think I don't like the dimethicone in this product. Makes my combo oily skin look like crud Perhaps I used too much though, and it might look better if I applied a primer underneath.

    Very nice pressed powder, as far as pressed powders go. Blends to a lovely, skin-like finish and doesn't appear too heavy - just right. This is like a finishing touch for me. Does it's intended job...

    I love this for use over my bb cream. When I use other powders I look dried out. This is enough to keep me from looking oily, without being cakey. I also like that it is actually pretty shear. I...

    Overall, I like this powder. It's lightweight, manageable, and blends well. It doesn't seem to have helped mask/control my oily t-zone, though.
