i am a NC30 and C4, i bought this in N4 for the winter and a W5 for the summer. for $10 bucks this product is worth it, after all they make Lancome and the products are pretty good.

My go-to powder. Good coverage to wear as a foundation. Comes with a sponge and mirror. Light enough for my super pale skin. Ok with oil control.
This is an okay product. The powder doesn't break me out but the lasting power is not the best and it clings to dry patches on my skin. I got it for $10, which is okay. The packaging is decent, and comes with a mirror and an applicator. I don't think the applicator distributes the product evenly though. Overall its an okay pressed powder that I am settling with for now for touch ups but I would definitely try something else if I see a better one on sale.
I was looking for a powder for light coverage, as I don't wear foundation everyday. I choose this based on the reviews. I have dry, fair to medium skin tone. As for most of us, I was concerned about choosing the right shade, I brought my foundation to Walgreens as a reference, great idea, as Lancôme also owns L'Oreal, so colors are very similar. I, too use this powder after moisturizing, using a dome brush & swirl, shake & use circular motions on my face. Love the finished result, just enough for evening out my skin, with a hint of color. Sometimes I do use a spritz of mineral water. Does not settle into lines or wrinkles. Will buy again!

Not the worst ive tried, it doesn't have much oil control, not much coverage, has tiny glitters in it, and oxidises. i am an NC20 and wear W2.
I use the shade "cocoa" as bronzer and love it.

I loved the finish of this product over my foundation, but the lightest shade is just too dark for me. It turned me a funny shade of oxodized orange. I wish True Match came in lighter, super pale, shades.
It works for me. I buy the third one already and it is still the best of all i had before. Even better than Estee Lauder.
None of the colors looked right on my skin, the paler ones made me look ghostly and any darker made me orange :( I suppose it looked alright when I first applied it, but after a couple of hours, probably because I have combination skin, it began to form orange patches where my skin was most oily. I have applied this foundation to other people who have a drier skin and they looked fine, but I wouldnt reccomend it for people who have oily/combination skin.
