1. Price: Kind of expensive for what it does. 2. Packaging: Ok, I admit it, the packaging is pretty freaking cute, sturdy and expensive looking and feeling. 3. Quality: I don't know, but it...

I got SMP 06 Medium Beige and SMP 07 Warm Beige because I really needed a compact powder to carry around. I liked the color selection for my very yellow Asian undertone, for loose powders I...

I bought this to use as a setting powder over foundation, and it works decently for that purpose. The little sponge they give you in the compact is a joke! I use a brush to apply this over...

I'm not too crazy about of coverage this foundation gives by itself, but that may just be because I'm so used to creme/liquid ones. It blurs my imperfections, and makes me look polished, so it's...
