I don't know how MAC Blot does it, better than any other powder, but it does keep me matte. I use it in Dark and it doesn't really add much color to my face. But, if I use too much I can see the...

I don't understand the appeal of this powder. I bought the translucent and was only using it for touchups. After 5 min of wear this stuff looked like I had smeared clay on my face. I mean it...

Exceptional! The best pressed powder I've ever used. The only beauty product I'm loyal to. Much better than Clinique and EL pressed powders. The formulation/texture is perfect for my combination...

This was the first MAC product I've ever tried. I love the blot powder. It works great at keeping the shine down.

I rec'd this in a swap and the shade is a NC15, even though I am more like an NC 20. However, that doesn't matter much bc it works great, mainly as a blotter. It doesn't really give me any color,...

Not bad for what it is. Certainly not amazing, by any standards. I am a MAC NC43 & I use this in Medium Dark. The pressed transluscent powder works best for me with a brush. While the method...

It does what it claims. It blots oil. I like it a lot. :) But, if looking for porcelian skin, you need to use studiofix, not a blotting powder.

I really wanted to like this powder. But after I bought it, I absolutely hated it. It's a decent powder I suppose. But, I only tried using it for touch-ups when I get oily. (I wear Bobbi Brown...
