Bought it once and wont be buying it again
Definitely not my favourite. Rimmel London Stay Matte is far more effective than this product. This powder if used above foundation (even the sister foundation) leaves a very very tacky feeling to the skin as if nothing has been set.
I bought this when I realised I forgot my other powder at home and I was going on a trip for a week.
It was an alright price and Maybelline is pretty well-known so I picked it up. It wasn't bad. But it wasn't the best either. I felt as though it had a pretty orange tinge to it and smelt funny. Maybe I was just being too picky. I used it for the week but I haven't used it since. I think there are even cheaper pressed powders out there than this one that is better than the Maybelline.
I am still using this product until I run out.. but it has been changed and its more shiny and glittery which sucks. I'am in the process of finding a new product. I like powder foundation so this one was nice until they changed it. They also changed the Applicator from foam to fabric which is horrible.
I have mixed reviews about this product, first I like that I matched perfectly my skin, looked like I had anything on my face an and felt very lightweight however this pressed powder didn’t stay long on my face. I was an oily mess just two hours after the application. Not a good thing for a pressed powder as I don’t have to constantly reapply my makeup during the day.
I purchased this with plans to use in place of foundation on days when I didn't want to put on a whole face. The pouf it comes with applies it way too heavily so you really should use a brush. It has a nice light coverage and doesn't leave me feeling cakey but I find it has a slight shimmer to it and leaves my skin with a slight glow/shimmer. I'm not sure if I'm a fan.
I have Combination (oily/dry) skin, this product does not blend well. you can see the powder on your face even after blending it in for almost 2 minutes. it does not soak up the oil, and it clings to dry patches. I do not recommend this product to people with my skin type.
