I can't say anything bad about this powder. I have it in NC35 and it's a perfect match. It's a great value at $20, because it's lasted me about one year, using it every day. My skin isn't oily...

This is a good product. It gets the job done. Sets makeup all day, but does not settle on lines or look weird. Price is great as well. I am in the minority to the extent that I don't like MAC...

Good product...has a really good sheer quality about it but still gives coverage. OK alone but especially good over foundation.

Its a pretty good pressed powder. It makes my face look flawless and soft. I also love the fact that its very light and actually looks pretty natural for a MAC powder. I'm already on my 5th compact.
