This is the only pressed powder I've ever really liked. I have very dry skin, so I usually stick with liquid foundations and concealers. However, recently I've been using the Too Faced BB Cream...

I love this powder! I use it over Tarte Bb primer & concealer. It is very sheer so it doesn't provide great coverage on its own. It doesn't break me out which is a rare thing. It keeps my...

Very sheer coverage. It's a little lighter once it's applied to my skin so I would get a shade darker next time. It's not something I would use alone, but to reduce shine throughout the day or to...

So far, this is my favorite PP ever. Light to medium flawless finish, excellent color match (I use Fair) for my fair, pink-y toned skin, little to no oxidization, and STAYS PUT without feeling...

This is a nice soft and light finishing powder. I am giving it three stars because it does not give any coverage and I was expecting it to be more if a foundation powder than a translucent powder....

I love this pressed powder because it works, it stays on my face all day and prevents it from getting oily, and I know its actually good for the skin (unlike MAC). It has SPF 8 which helps, too. I...

I didn't like this powder at all. I like the packaging though! It is too sheer and doesn't provide any coverage! They don't have a huge selection in color either =( For $30 I thought it would have...

I initially gave this product a negative review because I thought it was too sheer (I am acne-prone and had some breakouts I wanted to cover). But once I invested in some good concealer (Boi-ing by...

I like this powder a lot. It goes on smooth and helps to even out skin tone. It is a very light to sheer coverage makeup. It's perfect for days when you don't need much coverage, or if you hate...

I had high hopes for this powder, the quality was great and the packaging was really cute but the color was way too yellow for me, I bought it in fair. I'm an NW15 and revlon colorstay in ivory.

I like this powder a lot. I prefer a pressed powder and I use this one to set my makeup. It gives me a finished look without ever being cakey or unnatural.
