Pressed Powders -Cover Girl - Clean Powder

I have been using this product for 20+ years, and I love it! I have tried other brands, but I always go back to this one. The clean, noxema-scended powder is so nice. It gives a subtle matte finish to your skin and sets your foundation nicely. It feel very light on the skin, never cakes, even with reapplication (unless you reapply it on damp skin). I find that it lasts a long time, too. I only reapply my powder every few hours. The only negative thing I can say about this product is the new compact design, which is more difficult to open, and bulkier on your purse. But it doesn't bother me enough that I would stop buying this product.

Liquid -Revlon - Age Defying with DNA Advantage Cream Makeup

I bought this product because I liked that it had SPF in it, and also that it claimed to improve the quality of your skin. The first time I used it, I was surprised by how watery it was. It was actually difficult to apply because it was too watery. The color match was pretty good, but it just felt like a moist wet mess on my face. I finished with pressed powder (and reapplied my powder throughout the day to keep it set), but this foundation rubbed off on anything it came in contact with, leaving an embarrasing beige smear on my clothing, making me feel like I had Tammy Faye Baker makeup on. I've been wearing Mary Kay medium coverage liquid foundation for years, and that has never happened to me before, so I was really suprised by this. Also, I have combination skin, where I'm oily in my T-zone but dry on my cheeks... the foundation did not blend well on my skin. It always seemed to make my skin look flakey and wet. I blended and blended, but i could not seem to fix this issue without wiping all of the makeup off. I really wanted to like this product, but it just did not give me the coverage I was looking for.
