    I really like this powder. It looks nice on. I like the color (Medium). Decent lasting power. Good texture, very smooth. I hate the sponge though.

    I've repurchased this product religiously for a little more than three years now, and in that duration of time, have gone through close to fifteen compacts of the powder. As you can well guess,...

    This compact foundation goes on a chalky finish. It doesn´t look natural on skin, but so ashy and artificial. The color transforms into a orange mask and accentuate pores. Not the best oil control...

    I love this Powder. I have large pores and this powder just glides on so well and covers over the pores and does not go into your pores. You get a smooth silky finish. I love the applicator it is...

    I rarely purchase 2 makeup products consecutively, but this time I have a feeling I will depart from this habit. What I love the most about this compact is the texture, so very fine, and the soft...

    I have this powder in shade #356 Translucent. This powder is the best I've ever used. Like the reviewer below I have an oily T-zone, with dry skin outside the T-zone. Since this powder is made for...

    I'm not really a powder fan but do have occassional breakouts due to an oily forehead - bought this powder to set my concealer during said times. For the price I would say this is a winner - it's...

    Well, this is not what its cut out to be. A horrible powder for those who are blessed with super oily skin. Minutes after applying the oil seeps through which isn't good and pores are highly...

    I wanted to like this...I had read in a Magazine that this was a good powder. I shelled out $11 bucks for this piece of crap. It did take the shine away, but it made my skin look powdery and...

    Bleagh. Feels heavy, color selection is terrible-- I am fairly light, but the "light" is TOO light & the "medium" is WAYYYY too dark-- and the "translucent" seems like it is for ppl w/...

    I think the product was generally okay. I liked how the package is small, but it runs out too quickly for the price that is paid for it. The powder puff it comes with is also pretty bad. I think it...

    I got this product in Deep. It goes on smooth but it gave my skin a pink/powdery look.

    I'm not giving this a very high score even though it is my favorite drugstore powder. The pros: it's the only powder I've ever tried that does not pink or yellow up on me (I buy it in Translucent)....

    I use this powder in deep. Really like it. Its got a soft finish and the color was just a perfect match. It didn't control my oil (i have really oily skin) but it was such a beautiful finish...

    I like this, especially for a drugstore product. The "Light" color matches my skin pretty well and this gives just the right amount of coverage for me when used over a good tinted moisturizer. ...
