This product is alright. It doesn't cover so i use it as more of a setting powder but it always brings my foundation down and makes it look really bad. i only use this on the tip of my nose if its oily or if i need something super quick. it takes a while to actually build and is running out already and looks pretty cakey. Not a good buy
The packaging kind of throws you off with this one because it's so thick. When really, most of it is just a little compartment for the brush. It does last a pretty long time, but I find that it doesn't really do much. It's okay enough to use up, but I wouldn't buy it again.
I really love this stuff! It's perfect for a very natural finish, that doesn't feel powdery or cakey. I use this in 210 everyday to set my concealer and powder my whole face, which leaves the most natural finish that I love.

good matifying powder to put on top of a liquid foundation, hasn't really got any coverage so i couldn't just wear this on it's own
has alot of shimmer which is annoying, but i can deal with it

It's ehhh. I don't really see any difference with this powder after I brush it on after my concealer. my face goes shiny VERY quickly. I will not be buying this again.

This is a great sheer powder! I use 110 and was so happy to find a light shade that matches my skin tone. It's definitely too sheer to use as a foundation but it blends very well with my concealer and blush for a natural finish.

I have been using this product for awhile now. But i have been noticing it makes my face soooo oily during the day and doesnt feel light on my face. I bought the wrong shade 4times hahaha. I have now switched to the mayballine dream matte powder It is wayyy better than the fit me x100. The coverage is okay. When i put this on, i am costantly having to blot my face during the day, which sucks :( I do not reccomend this to people who have acne- prone skin or oily skin! However, i think this product would be okay for people who dont have oily skin. Please check out the mayballine dream matte powder, it is wayyyy better!!!! :D xx

If i had dry skin i think i would be very happy with this powder. It gave a very nice glow to my skin at first unlike the normal 100% matte finish i usually go with. Unfortunatly, if you have oily skin like me, that nice healthy glow turns into a shiny/greesey mess that made me feel the need to blot every 10 minutes. This didnt break me out in any way so thats a big plus ... Its a nice powder but i dont think this is aimed for anybody with oily skin.

Due to the hyper-sensitivity of my skin I use only Fruit of the Earth Vitamin E cream and powder on my face...no foundation! Ive used Physicians Formula Mineralwear Powder for about a year but have had trouble recently with the inconsistancy in the colors so I tried this today.
For what I use it as, a foundation, I really like it. I don't want something that looks overly matte (I'm 44, my skin looks dry enough as it is). I apply my cream, let it soak in a minute, then apply this powder with my Physicians Formula Airbrushing Kabuki in a patting motion. The coverage is medium and the finish is really nice-it's controlled the shine on my nose but the rest of my face doesn't look overly dry.
I've found in my search for powder foundations that application is KEY. If you're looking for a matte finish it's important to "pat" the powder on with either a velour puff )rolling motion) or a flat top powder brush. If you're looking for a bit of sheen then brush or buff it on. However, when applied this way it will make youthful skin glow but accentuate lines and pores of older or problem skin so be careful.
After having this on several hours it hasn't changed colors and doesn't feel like its zapping the moisture out of my skin like some powders can. Also, I like the afforability, availability, and wide selection of shades.
Good stuff :)

So I just picked up this product from my Walmart, I was looking something to replace my Victoria's Secret Hello bombshell powders, because obviously i cant carry a huge kit around everywhere in school, with heavy textbooks and laptop. I think its a little expensive..i got it for about $8, but whatever thats okay. I picked up this in 310 Sun Beige, which is pretty okay for my skin (NC40-42). The packaging is so effin cute, I love it. The powder is not "pressed" in well, because a single swipe of a brush makes it crumble. I only use this to set my makeup, I use my Mac Studio Sculpt, and this powder lets me set my makeup and leaves my makeup very dewey and gorgeous. Lasting power is pretty good, considering i wear my studio sculpt for about 6 hours without any touch Ups.. Would I recommend this product to friends? Yes..Because its pretty, I like the dewey look, but if youre mattifying yourself, I suggest using the puff it comes with..and lightly roll the puff with your fingers (not scrape or glide).
Notes to consider:
- I have Extremely dry skin
- Studio Sculpt Foundation
- Lemon-aid Correcter (as concealer)
- Hard Candy Sheer Envy Primer (it's known to be a bit oily..so its perfect for me"
- Ponds (Blue) as moisturizer
Email me if you need any help or more details :)
Edit: I actually dont mind how it gets a little powdery
its still pretty good.
the color is a bit dark for me, but my foundation is a tad lighter, (Golden Beige- Photoready), because my neck is wayy lighter than my face, so i think this works perfectly.
