    I love this as a powder! I have dry skin that breaks out easily but this stuff is fantastic for my skin! It's so smooth and satiny, it leaves me looking like a china doll without looking like I'm...

    This is probably best used as a powder, as it does not have the coverage of a foundation (does not work for my scars/redness). However, I love the finish--not at all cakey, and the "illumination"...

    This is a WONDERFUL powder foundation. I guess it's my HG (I haven't found anything I like better so far!) It's not at all chalky or thick. It gives a gorgeous, satin-smooth finish to the skin (not...

    This foundation is incredible, I'm so glad I gave it a try. I have dry, sensitive skin with a clear complexion, but with a little bit of ruddiness and uneveness near my nose. A few dabs of this...

    This is my HG foundation!!! I have oily skin and can't wear liquid formula. I used MAC studiofixx for a while, but it was too cakey and thick for me. Stila illuminating powder is perfect, because...

    I got a sample size compact of this off ebay. At first, when I put it on, I thought it looked too powdery. But then, after some blending, I noticed a nice glow to my face which I am ecstatic...

    This powder matches my skin almost exactly. It looks great for about 2 hours but after that it just starts to wear off ( I have oily skin) The coverage is good if you have almost flawless skin,...

    This is my HG Power Foundation. I use this in 10 watts. It gives a slightly shimmery finish which looks gorgeous when teamed with the ILF which gives a dewy finish. I am quite pale so 10 watts is a...

    I've been very happy with this powder foundation. 10 Watts is a near perfect match for my incredibly pale skin (a miracle in itself!) and the finish is fabulous. I'm strictly a powder foundation...

    I had been a Stila ILF devotee for awhile and only recently discovered the joys of IPF. Firstly, by itself (over primed/moisturised skin) it gives a really natural finish while over the top of...

    I have never encountered such a natural looking powder foundation before - and it actually gives me coverage. I have a lot of red undertones to my skin which IPF covered up easily. I use a brush...

    Holy grail status - I must've bought this stuff at least 15 times by now. It's perfect either on its own or lightly over my HG foundation (GA LSF) for a flawless, glowing face. I even use it for...

    I thought I'd reviewed this already, but I see I haven't. No matter what other colors and lines I try, I always come back to Stila's IPF. It's pricey, it's got the stupid reusable compact sold...
