I used this over Physician's Formula Mineral Concealer. It looked great. I stopped using it for a while and went back to it recently. I wasn't crazy about it. It didn't provide much coverage at...

It is very cheap, but looks cakey. It kept my skin matte for two or three hours, but not all day. Color was a little light compared to most "mediums" I've used,

This product is OK. When I bought this I bought it too light so I never used too much of it on my face, just for my undereyes and any other spots I wanted to cover up. I found that it came off of...

I bought this pressed powder back in the summertime (July, i believe) to take away shine but not make my sensitive skin break out. I didn't really have high expectations for this powder seeing that...

I've suddenly switched from being a combination to an oily skin so I realized I finally needed powder. This absorbs oil all over my face and has a slightly evening affect on the color of my face. I...

I wanted a cheap powder to carry in my small purse for touch-ups. This stuff is perfect, works really well, is tiny enough to slip in the smallest purse, and is cheap! I paid less than $2.50 for it.

I only paid $1.50 on clearance. This is a light medium shade, even though it says medium. I have fairer skin and wear it. Just from a swipe test on my finger I can tell it's sheer. It must be hard...

The product I like....non cakey finish, smooth texture, controls shine for a few hours. The packaging? not so much. The powder puff is TINY, and the packaging is cheap....I've had 2 and on both the...

I needed some powder but didn't want to spend much. At $4.99, it was a bargain and worth a try. It has a nice, light texture, fragrance free, and helps obscure flaws. Medium is an okay match for my...

It keeps my skin matte for all of.. an hour. Then when my face starts turning shiny and oily again, I get orange patches around my nose and t-zone. I wouldn't recommend this for oily skin.

Currently, Pure pressed powder in "Light" is my absolute HG. The formula is light yet creamy and glides on effortlessly on my oily, less-than-stellar skin. It's a very "clean" powder that doesn't...

I love this powder! It goes on smoothly and hides all imperfections. The medium matches my skin tone beautifully and my skin doesn't get as oily. If it does, I swipe it on and it absorbs it. Love...

Pure Powder goes on-oh-so smoothly and matches skin tone well. Coverage is good; finely milled. Skin doesn't feel dry afterwards and it does seem more moisturising than other powders. Doesn't...

i have oily skin & have been on the lookout for an oil-controlling powder that really does the job. it claims to "keep skin matte for hours" but as far as this goes, shine is back within 30...

I thought that because the line was oil free with the added benefits of "H20", I automatically thought it wouldn't irritate my skin. Boy, was I wrong. After two weeks of everyday use, I got the...
