    Cheap, and with nice packaging. However, I have some qualms about this. I have this in Neutralizer, because I was told it would cancel out some of the redness from my near-constant acne....

    I bought Neutralizer (I agree with other reviewers that this one is a little too white for a light-medium NC25 skin toned person). It is matte, powdery and does not minimize pores comparing to the...

    I purchased this on a whim when I was browsing Ulta the other day, which is something I rarely do without checking reviews here first. What I loved about it was that the shade Light is the most...

    It's really too bad cornsilk was discontinued. It was the best powder that controlled my oily skin well. Anyway,Carmindy's powder is a disappointment. I tried this after having tried MUFE HD...

    I'm a pretty fair colored person, and when I bought the light I was amused that it was a bit too light. But the coverage of this was amazing! It works just as well if not better then department...

    First of all, I'm a big department store makeup person. I have oily skin, and so I am constantly looking for powders to keep me from being shiny! I have tried lots of different powders (mineral...

    I got this as a buy one get one freebie at ULTA. It isn't too bad when applied with a Kabuki brush but it left a lot to be desired. It did reduce oiliness, but I still needed several touch ups...

    Finally, a matte pressed powder that looks natural and smooth without a hint of chalkiness! I went out on a limb and tried this powder despite the fact that $13 seemed a little pricey to me. Well,...

    I'm really surprised at all the negative reviews for this powder...it must be the applicator. First off, THROW AWAY the applicator that comes with it. If you use it, it will cake on the powder....

    I bought this looking for a powder to set my make up and found the yellow neutralizer amazing. Per the package it is "micronized, jet-milled powder" and it really is. Does not look cakey and has...

    'Luminous Matte'??? Isn't that an 'oxymoron'?!? I really didn't think that a powder could be both, but this powder *is*. I bought both the neutralizer and the regular pp in 'light' (I do a light...

    I bought this in medium, and the shade was fine. A few hours after applying it with a kabuki brush, the texture looked flaky and awful on my slightly dry, but not flaky cheeks. It made them look...
