First of all, this is a pressed powder (compressed loose powder) so I don't quite understand why some reviewers of pressed powders expect them to have foundation-like properties. At time of...

This is the first powder I've found that has tone-evening properties similar to that of foundation without covering up too much or making me look cakey. I find it makes me look healthier, almost...

I really like the packaging on this, but that's about it. The powder does not sit well on my oily skin. It not only migrates, but cakes badly when i reapply. This might work for dry skin types,...

I asked a lady in a shop to match my loose powder in 5YR with a compact powder. Why don't they have the same colour range for both products? I ended up leaving a shop with a compact powder in Pink...

I really like the slim, compact black design of this Shu compact powder. However, I had my reservations about its ability to match all colors. I have very light skin, and even so, after...

A+ for not breaking me out. But I must say the puff is a bit cheap for the price. THe poder is some how chalky on my face. Shu Uemura loose poder is my HG. But the press poder just didn't cut it...

I was disappointed with this product. It is supposed to be colorless/transparent, but I felt it left a pink sheen to my face. I also noticed that it didn't settle well on my face over my...

The tiny, pocket-able, mirrored black compact is very nice and understated, which is why I bought this. The powder is very fine and oil-absorbing, & comes in a satisfactory array of translucent...

I'll like to rave abt this for its compact size which slips into one's pocket easily! Light-weight with sheer coverage. Doesn't clog pores nor promote break-outs. I've been stuck with this for 2...
