I'm not sure if this is the same as the one I have - mine just says NYC Pressed Face Powder. It was the first one I used back in school and I'd always had a soft spot for it. It mattified my shiny...

I decided to purchase this on a whim after using up two Revlon Nearly Naked Pressed Powder compacts and felt it was time to try something different. I purchased the shade Naturally Beige, though...

I hope this is the right product as mine is also a black compact but it looks a bit different (maybe EU packaging?). Anyways, I got it in the lightest beige shade and it has some great coverage for...

Everyone seems to have great results with this product. I can't say the same. to be honest, it does some OK coverage when it comes to blemishes and such, doesn't really last though. my skin seems...

The translucent powder is just as good as a powder you would get at Sephora. I put mine over with a fluffy brush to set my foundation in place and it lasts throughout the day without caking up or...

On the eve of my switching to liquid foundations from BB creams (this was back in 2011, 2012) I figured that I needed to set the foundation with a powder and I decided to give this one a try....

This stuff is AMAZING. Get the translucent shade and press it on with a velour puff over your foundation. It mattes the skin and looks UTTERLY natural. This isn't just a great product for the...

The color selection is horrible, so I picked one up way lighter than my normal shade. It's dusty and chalky and is not good for people with dry skin. It kinda looks cakey. I would recommend it to...

Not very good as it made me look patchy and orange. Just isn't a good product which is a shame. Only purchased this as I loved the NYC mineral powder. It can't be the way I applied it as I used...

You get what you pay for with this powder. It doesn't do much for shine & after a couple hours my face is a cakey mess. I was shopping earlier when I passed a mirror & to my horror, my face was...

I am using this in Warm Beige, because it's a great yellow based shade that isn't too light for my medium tanned skintone like the translucent shade is (that one is for pale skin only). I do not...

I have been using this product for a few years now, simply because it is inexpensive. It does not break me out, and it comes in a shade light enough to not give me an orange tint. It does have...

It simply sets & mattifies, and in that aspect, it works very well because it doesn't oxidize (like their Loose Powder). BTW, this powder replaced my MAC Blot Powder and at a fraction of the cost....
