the best pressed powder - 02.04.10
I have been wanting this powder since it came out. But never got around to buying it until now. I am so happy with this. I bought this in #20 and #30 and I want back ups for them!

Quick Take: light coverage

I like this powder. It matches my skin tone well and seems to hold pretty much all day. Though I feel like I could've gotten a better type of powder somewhere else. And it doesn't control shine.

Quick Take: makes u look oily

THis is decent powder exept it makes your face seem a little shiny about an hour after you put it on so carry blotting papers with you because you will need them frequently. Good coverage.

AWESOME! - 01.30.10
Quick Take: oil-absorbing, reduces shine, flawless appearance, only have to apply once all day long

The best powder ever! It really does do its job and recent pictures that I had taken don't lie. It took me away from my long time fave of chanel double perfection powder and Its less money. Even better! LOVESSSSSSSSSSSSSSS IT!

Lights up face - 01.30.10
Quick Take: lights up your face

This is the most amazing face powder I have ever used, and I've used countless high-end ones in my 55 years. Its coverage makes my skin look more flawless, plus it seems to light up my face, diffusing the shadows of encroaching lines, like nose-to-mouth lines. It makes me look 5 years younger! And this just over bare moisturizer!

SCREAMIN DEAL!!!! - 01.29.10
Quick Take: sheer coverage, oil-absorbing, reduces shine

OMG... I totally scored with this. I have been searching endlessly for a non-translucent powder to replace the Vincent Longo powder that had been my HG.
This is absolutely it. I got the Medium/Dark and it was my perfect match.
It also has AMAZING adjustable coverage. for sheer coverage, I used a big fluffy powder brush, and for "mineral makeup" like coverage, I used a flat blunt end brush. and it even does serious coverage with a concealer brush.

awesome powder - 01.28.10
Quick Take: sheer coverage, oil-absorbing, reduces shine

I was skeptical at first about the whole "blu-ray" hype but I actually really like this powder. It has some light coverage and keeps away oil. It also makes my skin a bit more poreless and refined looking. Definitely a great powder and ever better at 50% off!!!!

I usually don't veer from Clinique for face makeup, but I needed a new compact and saw this on sale so decided to give it a try. Glad I did! This has great coverage and blends in well. I originally was applying it with a powder brush, but switched to sponge and find it goes on much smoother this way.

Quick Take: sheer coverage, oil-absorbing, reduces shine

Great sheer coverage. Seems to stay on well throughout the day. The compact is a little difficult for me to open, but I love that it's a pressed powder - instead of dumping loose powder everywhere!

Great Book, Ugly Cover - 01.25.10
Quick Take: oil-absorbing

This product is wonderful - the only pressed powder I've tried that doesn't cake and make me look like a dull old lady - but I'm terribly disappointed with the packaging. For starters, there's no sponge. Furthermore, when mine came the mirror was already unglued. I didn't send it back because it was on sale (and sold out), but if I had paid full price I would have asked for a refund. Still, the product itself is worth the hassle. New packaging please, Cargo!
