    Love how I can buy a powder that matches my skin. I am an NC42 and use this in NC40 which is plenty dark. It leaves a beautiful matte finish and is great for the afternoon touchup. I like this to...

    This powder works so great on my face. It doesn't break me out or dry me out either. I have very fair skin so the color looks so great it doesn't make me look white or pastly. Very natural. Love it

    I have been using this product for 2 years now and I love it. The color matches my skin so well. It gives sheer coverage if you use the sponge applicator it comes with. But I need a little more...

    I use the NC20 -- I use it to set my Studio Tech NW20 (which I love) Because I do have more "pink" undertones and confuses most MA at MAC because I am asian (which most have "yellow" undertones)....

    Great powder, very smooth. It never looks dry and powdery on my skin, yet it covers shine well. My normal shade NC 30 was orangey on me so I exchanged for one lighter and it is perfect. The SA said...

    I like that this product has a silky fine texture to it. However, it does have an odd smell to it. And, the product does oxidize somewhat. I wasn't really wowed by this product at all! So, I...
