There is a new trend called "baking" that I wanted to try because I have problems with under eye bags and my makeup creasing when I try to cover them. Essentially you pack on translucent powder and let it sit over your concealer on your face for ten minutes, the heat from your face melts the powder to your face, and it stops it from creasing, then you brush off the excess. I didn't want to spend a lot of money on something I didn't even know if I'd like, so I picked NYC because it was cheap. I tried it this morning and was pleasantly surprised! The powder didn't irritate my skin, which a lot of cheap cosmetics do, and the "baking" technique worked as well. I didn't use this to replace my regular face powder, and only used it under my eyes/on my cheekbones. For such an inexpensive product, it's very effective and did exactly what I wanted it to do. The only downside is that the container gets quite messy and it's not a twist on lid, so I'm worried that one bump the wrong way will send powder everywhere.

I bought this loose powder with the hopes it would provide decent coverage, since the price was so affordable. I should of known better. It is a very messy powder, that went all over my bathroom counter top. Plus, it settled into my fine lines and made my face so puckered looking.

its a alright price, around $4?doesnt last long though.

I use this all the time. Its an okay brand.

This loose powder is amazing! 1st the price is amazing, second the packaging is bigger than most loose powders meaning you get more. My only complaint is the packaging, the lid does not screw on, only slips on so it is not good for if you're planning to travel with it or carry it will you because it will spill. to fix that problem i keep an elastic around it

This truly is a five star product. I bought mine many months ago and I still have it. This product lasts forever! It works well to matte and set foundation. I use it all summer long to keep my face from being shiny. Its has a low price but high results! You can find it at Walmart or Rexall

I love the texture this gives to the face. Its super cheap and great quality. A little goes a long way. It hold my foundation and concealer on my face while giving it a smooth finish. Great product. I like it more than the elf powder.
