    I have used many different pressed powders and this one is my favorite. It is inexpensive, but it works very well. I use the color "Translucent," and it looks like it isn't even there. My skin tone is more even, and nice and matte. It completely eliminates any oily shine. The packaging isn't great, but considering ow inexpensive it is, and how well the powder works, I put up with the packaging.

    It goes on great, no clumping or horrible mess, great coverage. This product is by far the best pressed powder i've found so far for drugstore brands. Keeps away shine for hours! i deffinitly recommend this product.

    I agree with the comments above. I tried this out wanting to control my t-zone shine, where I work as a chef all the sweat and heat really does a job on my skin.
    This had a great review on their website so I bought it and was really disapointed. It don't last as long as it says it does, and the only plus about it, is that it is only good to wear over a foundation. For me, it did not work well as a foundation itself like it states. It's great to get rid of the shine for about an hour or two then it's gone. I also don't like how it felt on my face.

    Well, having searched it on the web, it states it's only really good for up to 6 hours. "Up to" being the key words here.

    I wanted to buy a powder to help my regular liquid foundation of the time along with blemishes or redness around my nose, but this product disappointed me. Luckily I switched liquid foundations and didn't need it so much. Instead I now use it over my foundation on hot, humid days to keep my face from sweating too visibly. Would probably be great if it really seemed to last more than an hour or two. Basically I only use it as a precaution that I know won't last, but I might as well use it until it's gone. I doubt I'll buy this again because of the tiny length of time it's there to help me. It does help take the shine off a shiny face, but, like I said, for me, its helpfulness is fleeting.
