Not good
-05.12.13
Looks way to powdery, and the smell is horrible, had to wash it off within 15 mins. Not worth it.

FLAWLESS!!!
-05.10.13
Quick Take: buildable coverage, long wearing, oil-free
Finally I've found my HG powder!!! This goes on so smoothly. I am very amazed. You get so much product for the amount you pay too. $38 for 0.67oz compared to other brands with little 0.25oz or 0.32oz. This is definitely a good deal and will last you for a long time. I am Asian with medium skin tone and Matte Neutralle II matches me PERFECTLY. It blends in so beautifully you can't even tell that I'm wearing it. Two thumbs up!

Quick Take: buildable coverage, oil-free
I try other brands periodically. I never use other brands more than once. Whatever it is Lancome is doing by making Dual Finish [unicorn tears? baby lambs breath?] keep doing it. I won't stray any more, I promise....

Why did I ever change?!
-04.28.13
Quick Take: buildable coverage, oil-free, lightweight, time-saver
About 2 years ago, I started using this as a foundation, ip using a damp BeautyBlender to apply. I loved the lightweight feel, the build able coverage, the shade selection. I'm very fair, and this beat out Clinique, Bobbi Brown, and many other lines in shades light enough. For whatever reason, though, I switched to a darn liquid formula. Ugh! I'm very blemish-prone and get extremely shiny on my forehead by lunch.
This product is amazing, and I just bought another of it with the VIB sale. It covers redness, never cakes, and makes my skin look flawless yet like skin! I have never used it as a powder; only damp as a foundation. Now, it quickens my morning because I have 1 less product to apply and rarely even use concealer. You have to try this product!

Awesome
-04.26.13
I bought this after I returned the terrible Bare Minerals pressed powder. This one is great, you can apply wet or dry, and it builds coverage. And it doesn't make my skin go crazy. Just what I wanted.

Been using this for the last 6 years
-04.25.13
I've been using this since I started wearing makeup on my face and I love it. I've tried other powders and foundations and they've all caused some kind of breakout on my face. If something isn't broken don't fix it right? Ill stick to this forever if I can.

My Powder Pick
-04.25.13
Quick Take: buildable coverage, long wearing, oil-free
I just love this powder. It provides such excellent coverage and leaves my skin tone looking even. It is light enough to not look "cakey", but has the coverage to last all day. I use it at work with no foundation or anything beneath it and it lasts me throughout my 12 hour shift. Much love to this.

Good product, bad smell
-04.15.13
I just this powder as a finish to set my foundation and blush, I really enjoy it , it has staying powder for my 10 hour work day and I don't get too oily, a little at my t zone , but that's just a norm for me. Ok the only down side is the fragrance, it smells like old woman perfume. I don't smell it all day, just during application.

The color matches up really well to my skin tone (Matte Wheat). Doesn't cake or smell funny. Very good product and I've been using now it for years. It has much better coverage than the Makeup Forever pressed powder.

Keeps getting more expensive
-04.01.13
Quick Take: buildable coverage, oil-free
I've been using Lancome off and on since I was a teenager. I've used this powder off and on as well. I think it is decent. The texture is lightweight and soft. It's buildable sheer-full coverage. It has a good amount of colors to choose from. One of the only few brands that accomadates my extremely fair skin with a pink undertone "matte porcelaine I".
Just a note though if your looking for very good coverage you will go through this powder faster than other ones because of it being sheer and buildable. It is a good finishing powder or for touch ups. It will be my last time buying this powder however. I am going to try sephora brand because it's a lot less expensive and I hear good things about it.

Disappointed
-03.23.13
I am a huge Lancome fan. I have only bought Lancome for the past 5 years. I decided to give this a try to save some time in the morning. However, I hated this product. It is not full coverage at all. When I tried to apply this with a wet sponge, it made the makeup in the compact gunky. Definitely a disappointment. I had to return it. :(

Silky, matte look that smells great. I put it on top of my concealer to finish my look, so I don't look dewy. Makes my skin look soft and silky. :)

Great Product
-03.17.13
I have tried many powder compacts including bareminerals and make up forever, and this powder is definitely one of the best. I don't like wearing foundation so this is good for minimal coverage and is buildable. Definitely a staple in my make up bag. It is scented but I don't really have an issue with it, and I am pretty sensitive to scent. Comes in a variety of colors - Sephora doesn't carry all of the colors so you might want to check on Lancome's website if you dont find your exact match or try a department store.
