    This powder is absolutely HG stuff. I use it as an all over powder. It gives a subtle glow that looks pretty in every light. Too much can make you look a bit dry so use a light dusting! I go...

    I've had to review this again. I was amazed by it at first, esp after seen wayne Goss' review on it. However, after using it for a while, it's not as amazing as I thought. It does 'blur' blemishes...

    Holy grail setting powder if you want to stay dewy/glowing but need some powder to set areas. Brilliant under the eyes to brighten in a subtle way. I find it blurs and brings your makeup...

    Finally, a pressed powder that actually makes older skin glowy. The shade is a pale yellow neutral, but you won't look like a taxi cab. The glowy part is really nice, with no sparkles or glitter....

    This is a truly lovely powder. It imparts a subtle glow and I found it buildable without being cakey. No glitter chunks here, just a slight pearly shimmer that looks natural and pretty. The powder...

    This is like magic. It perfectly blurs and reflects light the way a powder should. A little goes a long way. Too much and it runs the risk of chalky. But the texture when applied in small does is...

    Tried this to see what the buzz was about. Buffed on with a brush over foundation, this gives me a very light pearly finish to my skin. I prefer not to do my t zone, but over the cheeks it's very...

    This is one of my most terrifying purchases because if it didn’t work, if it didn’t do anything for me, I would’ve wasted so much money on a finishing powder. It's a non-essential item. But if...
