I always have a hard time finding good powders to wear that wont cause my face to react and break out. I also don't like wearing foundation so I need something with a bit of cover. The price averages for about $45. Not too bad. You can use this powder as either a foundation using the mitt it comes with and will give a medium to full coverage or as a finishing powder. I typically will just use my brush to apply it but sometimes will use the mitt for an even more coverage if I feel I need it. This powder has not caused to me break out which is awesome! I really like it and will probably be purchasing more in the future.
