I love this powder, which gives an extra layer of sun protection (preserving your skin means aggressive use of heavy duty sunscreen to which this 44 yo is a testament), a matte finish, and colors...

This has broad spectrum sunscreen and is a nice addition but should not be your sole use of sun protection. Like the ' Resist' powder some areas of the powder harden but it is not as bad as the...

Just an ok product for me. The powder has a somewhat shiny quality due to the zinc oxide and it definitely looks and feels heavier than other translucent powders. Maybe worth it if you really want...

I use the "Healthy Tan" color as my bronzer and really like it. The color is believable and does not make my oily skin greasier. You should definitely give it a try.

I only wouldn't buy this again because there are so many amazing powders on the market and I like trying a lot :) This is one of them (an amazing one) as it doesn't look cakey or feel heavy but...

Great powder. It's always with me. It leaves a natural finish. It's matte and it has SPF. I really love it. I can see why some people might have complaints with it when it comes to color range - I...

I picked up the colour in the lightest shade possible "buff biege." I was scared it would be too dark and my fear was confirmed! It looked like I had applied a bronzer all over my face. It's to...

The only complaint I have is the color. The lightest shade is too dark. The concept of titanium dioxide and zinc oxide to use for touch ups is great and convenient. But, I cant use it if it is the...

I have a bone to pick with Paula Begoun. Why does she keep discontinuing her best products? Most of the shades still exist (for now), but mine, "Fairest", is now extinct. It took me YEARS to find...

This is the pressed powder I use most of the time, and I've been very happy with it. I tried it mainly for the SPF; I don't know how effective it is, but I figure every little bit helps. The powder...
