    Great pressed powder! Probably one of the better ones I have tried. I have repurchased this probably about 2 times. I love it, but I think I am just moving on to MSF Natural. It gives a better...

    This powder is nice. Very sheer and is never cakey even after piling it on. However, it does not control oil and should only be used to set foundation. I got this awhile ago when I was still pale...

    This is a very nice powder - it goes on very smooth and doesn't have a tendancy to really empahsize any little dry areas on my face like a lot of powders sometimes do. It doesn't look cakey on me...

    This powder is finely milled and smooth. It's perfect for setting liquid foundation. I use it with a big fluffy brush, not the puff it came with. I have it in a few colors because it has just...

    The SA talked me into buying this in NC45 which I think is a little dark for me. She insisted it was sheer with hardly any colour but I beg to differ. You can definitely see the colour...
