I can’t say I see a difference in performance between this and . . . well, any other pressed powder I’ve tried. I think you’re paying for the packaging here — and to be fair, it’s genuinely nice! The compact looks modern if a little bulky for throwing in your purse, and the mirror can obviously still be used when the powder itself is gone. I don’t think I would keep coming back to this when I’ve used cheaper powders that actually work better for me.

This is my favorite everyday foundation. I'm currently using Warm Ivory but for summer I switch over to Warm Beige. Both shades are perfect matches to my skin tone. The coverage is sheer when using a beauty blender but can be built to medium when using a foundation brush. The finish is dewy as opposed to greasy and works for my normal skin. Does not get patchy, cake or settle into fine lines and it lasts all day on my skin. Does not leave my skin dry nor does it cause any breakouts. I love the pump bottle which makes dispensing the product very easy and sanitary. The product comes out creamy and blends easily. It evens out my skin tone without hiding my natural skin so I end up looking like I have very good skin. It has an spf of 15 but I still wear regular sunscreen underneath this and the foundation still applies evenly over it. The price is reasonable and I order mine direct from the manufacturer.

This foundation is surprisingly great for every day. Very inexpensive but very nice! The color Calico is a perfect match for my pale skin. It goes on beautifully with a sponge, it's sheer, but actually evens out skin tone and covers redness. The hydration is good and the finish is slightly radiant (but not shiny) and very natural. It feels weightless and hydrating while on. It also has SPF 15. I only gave it a 4 instead of 5 because of the titanium dioxide (which doesn't bother me, but bothers some). Good score and I will re-buy.
