    I like using this for setting my foundation as its very finely milled. No matter how heavy I apply it on it never looks cakey. The powder completely disappears and makes your skin look more matte...

    I use it over Studio Fix Fluid, and it is like magic! I have oily skin and live in SoCal, so my makeup tended to migrate/disappear by the end of the day normally, even if I set it with powder. But...
