I started buying this a couple of years ago and used it everyday, but not on its own, more as a setting powder, which was also the recommended use by the girl at the counter. I stocked up with a...

This is the best product ever for oily skin. However, Clinique have discontinued it now - at least in UK anyway. Don't know what I will use in its place!!

For what it was worth, thought it was a little pricey. This product turned out just OKAY for me. Blotted/kept oil at bay for some time but then my face just turned oily again. Am returning this to...

This stuff is an ok pressed powder. It's a little too dark for my very fair complexion and I even bought the lightest shade. I can't say it helped with breakouts, but it didn't make them worse...

This is only an OK powder foundation. I was jazzed by the positive review on Paula B's site, but this pales in comparison to Clinique's EXCELLENT Almost Powder foundation. I got it because I...

This was a good product for me because it definately controls the oil and last me at least until noon. Also, it does not make breakouts worsen. But to say that it did wonder in clearing up my skin...

I used this back when I had very oily, acne-prone skin. This was the only foundation I tried which wouldn't dissolve into a slick mess by noon and gave decent oil-control properties. It didn't...

I must say, this is an awesome powder. When I first bought it I really wasnt expecting much since the percentage of salycilic acid is quite small. However, it must be enough because when I started...

Just to let you know that any powder isn't going to be magical and cover up all of your flaws unless you use a cover-up underneath. I bought this product yesterday and I love it! I have been using...

This is definitely a powder. In fact, if Clinique had named it as a powder, I would without a doubt give it 5 lippies since it is a great powder. It is not a foundation since the coverage is VERY...

This powder is good for acne prone skin like mine - but it's not a "fine sheer" powder that I prefer. The powder doesn't illuminate your skin if you understand what I mean. It covers well and...
