Love this stuff! I need to get more actually. It really works! It doesn't look cakey and it helps to control oil and helps foundation to stay on longer. Amazing product.

This is the best compact powder I have ever used. I don't like its packaging very much, but the quality of this product is great. First of all, it doesn't irritate my sensitive skin with rosacea....

Once you get the right color, it's a great powder. I normally use loose powder, but decided to pick this up and I'm really glad that I did. I had to take it back because the SA gave me 2W Light...

I am NOT a fan of pressed powders because they tend to look so chalky and icky. This stuff though - wow! I love, love, love it. I have been using this for about 4 years now and I just hope that EL...

The best powder I have ever used. Gives you an airbrushed looking finish. I am acne-prone and have some scarring, and this just airbrushes a lot of it away. I use it with Equalizer foundation...

I have extremely oily and sensitive skin and no powder seems to do much about it, but this one is really good. I have it in Transparent so I cant review its coverage since it doesnt add any color,...

Exceptionally fine-milled pressed powder that doesn't look chalky or cakey on me. I use 3W - Medium Warm which is sort of a good match, but like most of EL products, tends to be a ghastly pinked...

I had high hopes for this powder - I had tested it at the EL counter and it seemed like a good fit for my skin and foundation (EL's Double Wear). But when I got it home and tried it in 'real life,'...

The best thing about Aeromatte is the case. I love the colour and the sleekness, but while powder itself does a decent job of controlling oil and has reasonable staying power, it didn't do it for...

This is a very finely milled silky powder that I find to be very sheer which enables me to put a lot on without getting cakey. In fact I've always set my foundations with loose powder to avoid...

This powder is quite nice. I am extremely oily and this seems to control it pretty nicely; better than some other brands I have tried such as Clinique. I am also using the Double Wear Light...

I was really surprised how much I like this powder - the SA said it has no coverage and is too sheer. I wear Double Wear Makeup in Fresco and just purchased this in 1W. I love it! It does not...

This pressed powder was recommended for my dry, sensitive, rosacea-prone skin. I tried it in Transparent, 1W, and found it to have a fine, beautifully silky texture that went on smoothly and didn't...

i would agree with everyone here that it is very sheer and is not the best oil-controlling powder out there. however, it is super light and really comfortable to wear which is hard to find in a...

Goes on great, doesn't smell terrible, and is the perfect "colour" (translucent). Although it did a decent job of controlling oil throughout the day, it came with a price: irritation pimples...

If you're after a powder with coverage - then this is not the powder for you as it offers zero coverage (be warned!). However, if you're after a pressed translucent powder to set your makeup and...
