I bought this in translucent (before they redid the line). It covers smoothly and controls shine well. I find that it doesn't cake up like many pressed powders do. Overall this is a good product...

The powder itself isn't all that great. It doesn't look completely natural-- kindof dry and um, powdery. However, it's the only powder that I've used that hasn't made me break out. So for that...

I'm one of the few who was not impressed with this powder, either. I really think it made me break out. If anything, it made my face more oily instead of less oily. It also looks chalky on my skin....

Hmm, I guess this was an ok product. I'm still looking for my HG compact powder - doubt it is this. Even though it says it will give a clearer complexsion, guess I'm not one of the lucky ones. My...

I hate to be the one lone dissenting voice here, but I'm simply not impressed with this powder. maybe it's because I've changed routines lately and maybe it's my "shine-free" moisturizer that's...

I have this powder in translucent - which it is not. It is a very very light, almost white, neutral color - perfect for a neutral PPP like me. I don't know if this is responsible for my clearer...

I have this in Sand. It mattifies my face for a considerable amount of time (4-5 hours) and effectively conceals redness and minor acne scars. I reapply once only per day. And while it's not...

I have no complaint about this powder. It is a nice compact and the powder is nice. I have no complaint about this. It does not prevent oily skin over the course of the day.
