I love this product. It definitely keeps down the shine, and only has to be re-applied every few hours. I like it a lot, mostly use it on my nose and chin (as they are the oiliest parts of my face...

The light shade matches my skin perfectly. It controls shine all day, usually I have to reapply my powder a few times per day, but not with this stuff. $5 and definitely worth it.

It disguises shine for about 10 minutes and doesn't hide breakous at all. The color was decent, though...very light. It rubs off easily. This was a waste of money, definitely not buying it again!

I really like this pressed powder. It is one of the few light shades I've found that doesn't make me look gothic-white, yet matches my skin tone. I can deal with the tiny compact and sponge--so...

When I first tried this I hated it because it is sooooo light (no coverage). I thought it was useless! But now I find it that when im running out, I apply it just so I'm not going 'naked'. And its...

I bought this in Medium @ Wal-mart a few months ago. It was packaged as a set & came with a pure concealer blemish treatment stick. I haven't had any problems with the powder & can't comment on...

This is a terribly packaged product, the packaging makes it almost worthless. I'm glad to see other people have complained about it. The tiny, thin and useless square sponge this comes with is a...

This is horrible! I hate the packaging! I totally agree with the previous post, what are they thinking! That little sponge is cute, but isn't it to childish? How is that little sponge going to help...

My first complaint about this powder is the packaging. The powder is in a small little sqaure and below it a teeny tiny applicator and behind it a very small mirror. What were the Maybelline people...

Really awful stuff. I bought this in a pinch for some light coverage and to take shine away. I buffed it in and at first I was impressed by the coverage-- very matte and more then just totally...

I've already bought this 2x, although the first time it broke. First off, I have to say it DOES eliminate shine. The color is a nice match to me (I'm fair). Plus, it's actually not cakey or chalky....

This is probably the worst powder I've ever had. The packaging is dreadful, the powder square is quite small, to get to the mirror you have to lift up the puff (which is nothing more than a cheap...

This is a great powder. I have it in medium. A little concealer and this- I'm good to go. It's a really fine powder. It isn't chalky. It last long and it did not break my skin out. My only...

I didn't care for this powder. When I swipe my brush across it, the powder tends to ball up and I get tiny chunks of powder all over my brush, which is annoying. I thought perhaps I had purchased...
