As with most of the reviews I thought that the colours were misleading and I ended up with a shade that was way too light. This was somewhat corrected when I applied Maybelline's mineral powder foundation and pressed powder on top, but you could still see that it was a bit too light. Besides the colour, I was impressed by the quality of the concealer. I was able to build the colour without looking too caked on. Also a lot of times I have trouble with concealers irritating my eyes but I didn't have trouble with this one. I also thought that it covered blemishes quite well which unusual because if something usually covers my dark circles it doesn't usually cover blemishes that well. I do have to say though that while the concealer covers well it doesn't last that long, by the end of the day you could see the dark circles under my eyes again. I would recommend this product because for the price I think it works well, I would just suggest that you definitely go to the store and see if they have testers before you buy so you don't end up with a too-light concealer! Oh and yes, I like how this concealer had no strong scent as well! -

I've never used loose powder foundation before, only compact powder foundation. That being said I thought Maybelline's mineral loose powder foundation was alright. After applying Nude to my face I thought that it seemed to make me a touch orange-y but when I took some pics with my digital camera it didn't seem that way, in fact my skin appeared quite natural in all the pics I took. I would also say that the powder provides light coverage, not light to full like it is advertised, though it does blend very nicely. It also works well at preventing me from becoming slightly oily by the end of the day. All in all I would recommend this product to someone who wants a light coverage foundation that looks natural. -

I have this blush in True Peach and I have to say that this is my fav product in Maybelline's mineral line. The colour gave me a nice peachy glow that looked very natural. I was also able to build the colour without having it look fake. The only disappointing aspect was that I found that the colour didn't last all day. By the time i got home after a really long day you could no longer see any colour on my cheeks. Other than that I would definitely recommend the mineral blush in true peach because the colour is gorgeous, looks natural and can be buildable. -

I don't normally wear pressed powder but I thought I would give Maybelline's a try. First off, the packaging was pretty cool. It's really sturdy so it can stand up to being tossed in your purse. It comes with a sponge applicator and mirror so you can apply it wherever you are, though I did have some difficulty trying to get to it at first but I finally figured it out and thought that it was cool that there is a tiny compartment that swings out. I thought the product itself was good, it prevented me from getting oily all day. It also helped me darken up the concealer that I had which was too light. I also liked how it blended into my skin, which normally doesn't happen because I'm asian and most drugstore makeup doesn't quite match my skintone. All in all I liked Maybelline's pressed powder because it prevented me from becoming oily, matched my skintone well and didn't make my skin feel flaky after applying it. -
