I really like this powder - I received it in a swap and fell in love with it, but at $38 to repurchase, I think I'll be finding a more affordable alternative. Works very well at keeping shine at bay, but then so does a square of toilet paper. That said, I have to give it high marks for quality and effectiveness, and I like that it doesn't add any color to your face (I have the Translucent). The packaging is very nice too. Formulated without parabens, so that's a plus. But again...so is a square of toilet paper!
