    My favorite pressed poweder. I love the color and consistancy. It doesn't make my skin itch like a few other powders do. It's perfect for my FFF skin. I apply this powder with the puff and have...

    The color "fair" is a good match for my pink undertones, I find it's not too yellow. I can apply it with the puff without it getting cakey or masky looking. Provides sun protection, which is the...

    I got this because of the SPF, which is the only good thing about it. The colour (medium) has pink undertones and doesn't suit my skin's yellow undertones. Also, this powder is cakey on my face and...

    I really like this powder. It has to be applied with a brush, otherwise it lightens skin too much (I have it in "Fair". A perfect match for PPP skin, but heavier coverage makes your face almost...

    I thought this powder was ok. I liked the SPF protection, but it was too heavy for me. I've recently started wearing mineral makeup (Aromaleigh and JI)and I prefers these powder foundations much...

    I give this five lippies because of the SPF!! It is hard to find a powder with high SPF and broad spectrum UVA/UVB protection (from 8.9% Titanium Dioxide in this case). There are not so many...

    This product is awesome. I am using it daily and my skin loves it. The SPF 30 can't be beat. This keeps me from getting sun spots. I throw out the puff sponge and use a Sonia Kashuk powder brush...

    The compact has a tendency (for me, at least) to break in half at the hinges, which are encased in plastic. Both times that I have purchased this rather expensive drugstore powder, the compact...

    Finally, makeup with a high SPF. I can't wear sunscreen on my face without breaking out since every brand I've tried makes me feel like an oil slick, but Neutrogena's Healthy Defense powder gives...

    Found this at a local drugstore for $9. This powder only comes in 3 shades, but with a little guessing I found out that "medium" worked fine for my darker skin tone. A warning: DO NOT APPLY TOO...

    I have rosacea/sensitive, combo skin that is acne prone. This powder hasn't broken me out...ever. Sometimes I LOVE it & it seems to go on unnoticed & other times, VERY powdery looking. That may...

    I use this to top up my sunscreen when I'm out and about. Agree that color selection is bad and the finish is too heavy (it helps to use a brush instead of the little puff). Will probably buy again...

    I like to use this for touch ups during the day. It absorbs the oil pretty good and has a SPF. It does not cake up on me. Overall, very good product.

    The color selection is the worst thing I could find about this product. That shade I have is a little too light, but my skin is so oily, it kind of just blends in. This has SPF 30, a nice classy...

    No breakouts! Great coverage for a powder! SPF 30! What more could I want? Okay, so the color selection is weird, which is really unfortunate, but if you're lucky enough to find a match, then this...

    UPdate: I've heard that this product is being discontinued. Buy this in Medium. It is much lighter than I expected and I have NEVER been a medium, more a fair. However, I tried all three...

    There are only three colors to choose from, Fair, Light, and Medium. It’s hard to choose the right color for your skintone, because the color shown on the box doesn’t match the color of the powder...

    This is my favorite. I have very fair skin so the color selection works great. I love SPF factor and the fact that it gives a real natural look rather than a caked on look. I find that I get less...
