Very light powder! I was surprised, because usually you have to sort of..."press" the powder onto your face (pardon the pun). This one has a different puff, though, spongy. Good color, which complements the foundation.

Liquid -Revlon - New Complexion Makeup

This foundation is light, oil-free, fragrance and irritant-free. It feels good going on, and doesn't come off easily. It comes in a lot of good colors. I'm white but for some weird reason I've found it hard to "match" my color with a lot of other lines.

Skincare - Face -Clearasil - Icewash

Guess I'm in the minority, because I like Icewash. Sure, the smell is menthol-y, and if you're sensitive to it then forget it. What I made the mistake of is combining it with a 10% benzoyl peroxide treatment. Instead of spot-treating, I treated all over (my neck, anyway; I had a horrible breakout there recently). THAT causes dryness from Hell. I wonder if the other two here had used bp treatments and the dryness, redness and peeling occurred because of that? What I like is that it is a light cleanser, has no "fragrance" per se, foams up a little but not too much...and is a good prep for moisturizer and foundation. It dried up my oily spots for sure. I would also recommend it for the body, especially in Summer. Your face isn't the only place to get zits.
