Not a good setting powder for me. This just sits on top of my skin leaving a whitich cast. And instead of minimizing the appearance of my large pores, the powder settles into the pores. I like iT...

It is not working for me. I bought this because I used the veil primer and setting spray, which I both like and was looking for a setting powder that would be suitable for dry skin. Unfortunately,...

Great quality, very white though, I'm NC25 and its too light. If they made 3 shades of this, it would be perfect. I use as highlighter. If you are <NC25, then yes I would recommend. Otherwise stick...

First I should begin with a rating disclaimer: If I were in my 20s or 30s, this would likely have gotten a higher rating. As someone approaching my 50's with very dehydrated skin, this isn't...

I grabbed a mini version of this and I have been using it for a few weeks now. It's not bad, but for the price, it's not worth it, imo, unless you have really dry skin. I have mature, combination...

I really enjoy this powder. It has a very soft and fine texture. It sets and mattifies my makeup but never looks heavy, cakey or dry on the face. I don’t need to use a lot either, and it blends...
