Translucent and extraordinarily lightweight,
Nars Loose Powder sets makeup and creates a more natural
finish. The enclosed powder puff can be used for medium
to full application. For lighter coverage a loose powder
brush is preferable.
Quick Take: natural yet gives a perfect skin, great even alone after moisturizer
I discovered it from a make up artist 10 years ago and can't live without it!

Perfect Powder- 11.12.09
This powder is as close to a perfect product as one can get. It matches my complexion perfectly and doesn’t make me look like I’m wearing any powder, yet sets my makeup for all day. It adds a nice soft complexion to my skin.

no oil control for me- 11.11.09
Quick Take: sheer coverage
This powder didn't do a good job of setting my makeup. Halfway through the day, it didn't even look like I was wearing makeup anymore. It didnt' have any oil absorption for me either.
This is an unbelievable loose powder. I usually wear either a liquid foundation with a light layer of pressed powder over it or jsut pressed podwer depending on time avail. for my foundation. When I have time to use this loose powder as well I always get compliments on my skin. It really makes your skin radiant. The way to put this on too make sure you don't use too much. Is to sprinkle some on a tissue. Then fluff the tissue to spread this all over it in a light layer and then press against your face. Its never too much or too harsh. To one of the viewers below this is not a good loose powder for actual foundation coverage but is an amazing asset to achieving radiant skin without people knowing what you are doing.

love the coverage- 10.22.09
Quick Take: oil-absorbing
The loose power Felt like Velvet to my skin! It complements the Nars Cover-up and I would recommend it to anyone that has T-Zone issues. As far as the container, I can see what others are refering too, but I dont mind it, it is worth the mess, maybe try not taking it out of the cardboard wrap while using.

I wanna like this but....- 09.30.09
When Sephora stopped carrying MUFE Matte Loose Powder in shade #20, I started searching for my next replacement. (Sephora still carries 3 other shades that don't match my skin color and they don't give me the wow effect at the end when I tried them.)
I don't like wearing a lot of make up. My skin is pretty clear I think because I generally just put on loose powder and no foundation. So I was looking for another loose powder that gives me a matte finish with a little bit of color and coverage.
My friend suggested Nars cuz it's her HG brand. I really wanted to like their loose powder and I have purchased 3 different shades and no... they don't work for me. I plan to return 2 of the shades.
After applying it on top of the moisturizer my face became oily around my nose in about 1-2 hours even though I stayed inside my house and not doing anything physically demanding at all. I don't look very flattering either for some reason. I am NC30 and the 'Beach' makes my face dark. So I'm returning that for sure. Then the 'Flesh' makes me look cakey and it may be too light for my skin. But this powder is not very translucent and it contains corn starch! I'm thinking the corn starch makes me oily.
The 'Eden' shade seems to work with my complexion the most. But it still makes my face oily. Also this powder isn't so easy to put on I think. If you put too much then it looks bad. You gotta be careful and try to layer it up. I understand that the right way to apply powder is to layer it up but this has been harder to apply than the MUFE powder.
I wanna cry that I haven't yet been able to find a replacement for the #20 MUFE Matte Loose Powder. HUhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh....

Quick Take: oil-absorbing, sheer coverage, matte finish, never settles
this stuff is incredible. i love using it to set my liquid foundation. it keeps me matte all day. most of the time i don't even need touch ups. it NEVER settles into pores or fine lines. it has a beautiful matte airbrushed finish. this is completely worth the money!

Love the powder, hate the packaging. The powder gets all over when you take off the top. You loose alot of the product because of the design.

Quick Take: oil-absorbing, sheer coverage, soft
got this yesterday. i chose Flesh. it matches pretty well if you wear Mont Blanc foundation,but i think Snow would be better. sadly,sephora didnt have it. over all it gives a nice finish to foundation,&adds some extra coverage. the applicator it comes with is really nice,but this can be messy so i wouldnt carry it in a purse

Love this stuff!!- 08.09.09
Quick Take: light to medium coverage
Best powder ever can go from light to medium coverage depending on whether or not you apply it with a brush or the puff that accompanies it. Have been using it for years.

Quick Take: sheer coverage
I realy thought i would like this product but at lunch time it was aparent that it was not working as it should. It made me shiny, oily and ichy. I like that it sets any product on your face but it just does'nt keep up.

Needs some improvement- 07.19.09
Quick Take: oil-absorbing, sheer coverage
Powder is pretty good, but the container is definitely in need of some improvement. Powder covers well and with the poor construction of the box it will cover more than just your face. Would buy again with a better box.

Clean Sheer Coverage- 06.23.09
Quick Take: oil-absorbing, sheer coverage
I love this powder. I don't like to feel the makeup I'm wearing, and this powder goes on nice and light, but still provides great coverage, and mattifies my shinny complexion.

LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!!!!!- 06.10.09
Quick Take: oil-absorbing, sheer coverage, long lasting
I have tried every major brand out there in search of something that does not look cakey and last long. This does both amazingly! I apply in the morning and by evening my makeup is still on! It is a light enough formula so it does not cake around eyes with concealer. It is a MUST buy!!!
