I would repurchase. It doesn't make my face look powdery or cakey. I don't think it keeps me matte very long though. And I wished it at least had a mirror. It doesn't come with a mirror or tool for application. I got creamy natural (I'm light skinned) and it matched me pretty well. I don't think it would cover exceptionally well if used by itself. I have acne prone skin & I don't think this has caused any extra breakouts. It's light feeling. If you get it at Walmart it's pretty cheap. $4 or less!

I have gone through maybe four of these, until I finally got tired of the lid cracking and/or coming off in my bag, and switched to other powders. Why can't they make it just a little bit more secure?!
I can't remember which colour I was using, but I never had a problem finding the right one for me, even though I'm really pale, but yellow-toned, not pink.
It kept me matte for a few hours, then I'd have to reapply, which is to be fair what happens with most powders for me - I think my T-zone is just that oily!
It never made me look cakey - but I always apply lightly handed! - and it provided a bit of coverage as well.
Overall, pretty impressive for how cheap it is!
I'd repurchase this if they sort out their lid.

I have repurchased this product time and time again, and will continue to do so for always.
It's just the best pressed powder I've ever tried.
I'm usually 01- Transparent, and when I'm a little bit more tanned 02- Pink Blossom. I love that they actually have shades to match pale skin tones. If you are pale, one of the darker shades would actually make a great bronzer to add a bit of colour.
It's fantastic for zapping the oil from my skin, and leaves behind a great matte finish which looks more natural as opposed to powdery. This means it can be used alone, over concealer, foundation, primer, whatever you want.
It's not hard to apply- at a pinch, you could even use your fingers.
Also, you pay about £4 and you get a product which will last you for months, which for girls on a budget is great.
One of my absolute makeup essentials, I'd never want to be without this again.

My shade: 001 Transparent
I think that I have the version of this with the minerals within it.

Pros:
Amazingly cheap for what it does.
Covers shine without looking cakey (if applied with a brush e.g. kabuki).
Lasts quite a while.
Lasts me about 2+ months used pretty much everyday.

Cons:
Packaging is cheaply made and the lid isn't very secure.
Once you hit pan it sometimes crumbles into chunks.

I've been using this product for quite a while now, and I like it quite a lot. Unfortunately I'm still struggling to find the right color for me, I've tried four different shades and they all make me look ghostly, even the ones that look dark in the pan. Even with that though, I still love the results I get. Great looking matte finish with out looking like a caky mess.

I love this product. It makes me look natural and non cakey, and goes on nice and easy. If you have very dry skin I recommend moisturizing and using a face scrub once a week. I have a little issue with it though, I dislike the packaging very much, you can't carry it around with you because it will open up in my purse. But over all it is a great product I just wish it lasted longer when I apply it.

Absolutely love this product!! This definitely does the job by keeping my face matte and my make up lasting throughout the day. I have this in transparent, and I honestly can't see it. It literally disappears on the skin. I took one lippie off for packaging? I mean this is being really picky, but I wish I could carry it around with me.

I love this product! It blends so easily into my skin, and I use it to set my under eye concealer/foundation. I totally recommend this (especially because of the good price)! The packaging is flimsy, though. There is a plastic cover that comes all the way off so you just have the powder. (about $5)

This stuff is awful and I'm quite a fan of rimmel. It was chalky , made me look ghost like and it went on patchy. It's far too fragranced as well. Nothing good to say about it at all. I'm not a make up snob and buy quite a lot of cheapies, but sometimes you get what you pay for.
