Has anyone actually read the box? It says it has "a blend of plant derived emollients including COCONUT OIL", and then, one line after, it states " paraben free, OIL FREE..." What??????? Then, if...

I think this is it - my HG pressed powder. I like wearing really light makeup so I'm more of a TM and powder kind of girl, and I've fallen in love with this one! Thanks, Makeup Alley for all the...

I have mixed feelings about this powder....I LOVE the formula, but (like Smooth Operator), the color match isn't very good for me. I bought it in Light, and even though it's sheer, it's just a...

I absolutely love this powder! I tried many pressed powders and most of them fell into my pores or accentuated lines around my eyes. This didn't! It was smooth with no pores or lines! It left a...

I like the compact this powder comes in. Otherwise, I sort of hate it. It's very very sheer, so I can't wear it as a foundation, which was my goal. The sponge is terrible. The powder is chalky. ...

I love this powder on many levels (the adorable packaging, the mineral formula, fact that it doesn't oxidize on my face), but why must it cost so much? More to the point, I am willing to pay for...

I used to use BE as my foundation, and found that it was a little messy and by the afternoon I was shiny. So I marched into Sephora and asked for something similar, just more practical and she...

Like other reviewrs, I bought this to touch up throughout the day (I use BE most days). I LOVE this powder! It is so natural looking, and when used to touch up my BE, it gives the most flawless,...

I am not a fan of powder as I dont like that severe make-up mask look. I use my custom blend prescriptives make-up and then I use this product with a kabuki brush. It makes my skin look flawless. ...

I love this! It goes on beautifully without looking cakey at all! The color is sheer and doesn't feel heavy. Toss the sponge when you buy this! Instead, the salesperson at Sephora recommended the...

I was looking for a "touch up" mineral makeup that was in a compact and a Sephora salesperson suggested this. I'd never used any Tarte products before, but this was pretty good. I use Philosophy...

I had been using Bare Minerals for a year or so, but hated the packaging because it made it hugely inconvenient to bring anywhere and even just to use on a daily basis. I do love the gentleness of...

This powder is amazing for combo skin. I've tried Get Even, Laura Mercier, Cover Girl, Bare Escentuals, Sgiseido, MAC, etc and none of them come close to Tarte. The packaging is adorable- a sleek...

I bought this pressed powder from Sephora.com - and the shades they have were only light, medium & dark - so I get the medium, which works fine for my AAB MMM complexion. I've checked Tarte...
