I have tried may powders, but this one is truly amazing, my friends noticed how flawless my skin looked the first I wore it. This is a must have product.

use blush ! - 11.21.09
Quick Take: non-drying, buildable coverage, natural finish, wonderful for delicate skin, does not irritate acne-prone skin

I already wrote a five-star review of this product so I won't repeat myself but I forgot to mention something.

I don't like powder blush. I just feel that gels and gel-creams look more natural, more flattering, more glow-y. And you can use a gel or cream blush on top of this foundation! You wouldn't think that you could with powder foundation, but because of the oils in MUFE's, you can! I apply gel blush over the foundation every single day. Nothing weird happens. It makes all the difference in the world.

Just thought I'd add that.

Great coverage - 11.21.09
Quick Take: non-drying, buildable coverage, natural finish

This foundation is great. I usually use Bare Minerals but i prefer pressed powder since it's easier to apply on the go. It has great coverage and gets rid of any shine. Will definitely buy again.

Lots of coverage - 11.20.09
Quick Take: non-drying, heavy coverage, matte finish

I usually apply my powder products with a brush, however I found this particular powder too heavy to do so. I got much more effective coverage without the buildup when I used the sponge applicator provided. It is more coverage than I was looking for, but if you prefer heavy matte coverage this powder is for you.

Love it. - 11.20.09
Quick Take: non-drying, buildable coverage, natural finish

I've been using this foundation for awhile now, and I like that is is neat, compact and feels good on the skin. It goes on well and stress free so much so that I can do touch ups on a packed NYC train when need be. It's also a really good color for my skin tone.

The only thing is that after months of using it, before I buy a new one the old compact starts looking skanky, the make up too, bumps and cracks in the remaining make-up, it still goes on well but it does look weird in the compact.

Good Coverage - 11.16.09
Quick Take: non-drying, buildable coverage, natural finish, controls oil

Helps against oily shine throughout the day. I think I picked the wrong color, my bad. It has a bit too much yellow/orange in it for my olive skin.

Great Mat Finish... - 11.12.09
Quick Take: non-drying, buildable coverage, nice matte finish with a natural glow

I love this powder. I've finally found a true matte powder. I recently bought Bare Escentuals Matte powder... total waste of money, my face was shinier than ever! Even when used with a primer... With the Mat Duo, whether i use a primer or not, my face still remains matte for hours! I use it in combo with the MUFE Mist & Fix and my makeup doesn't budge for hours! I won't be buying anything else for a while! MUFE Rocks!

great - 11.11.09
Quick Take: non-drying

Great powder foundation. it doesn't look or feel powdery. Works really well with the applicator sponge. If you use a brush, you get a lighter application. I like this foundation better than most others i've tried. Some of the ones I've used are BE, Pur, Sephora, Sheer Minerals. It's probably most comparable to Lancome. Very high quality, nicely done. Most powders do much better with a primer. If you use a primer, you will get a longer finish from it.
