    This is my new favourite MAC product. It works great for setting liquid foundation, but it also works great on its own to even out skin tone. It looks invisible on my skin and it looks/feels like I...

    I have been using this for years, a jar lasts AGES, and it sets my makeup just perfectly to eliminate shine and even out my skin tone. Used lightly it doesn't look powdery at all, and you only need...

    Well, I actually really love the effects of this powder. I have very oily skin, and this mattes with the lightest shimmer that gives a luminous look. I have always been afraid of shimmer powders...

    Well, this is my all time favourite Sheer loose powder! Better than BB loose powder. Almost finishing on the 2nd jar, often use this with a brush ontop of foudation to hold-up m/up last longer....

    I overcame my dislike of loose powders (mainly due to the mess they can make) and bought this one from MAC after hearing many wonderful things. I have not been disappointed. Sure, it can be messy...

    I love this stuff. Really sheer, as it says. NC15 suits my skin tone - however when I tan it doesn;t stand out as pale to matte up areas as it's that beautifully sheer. Definitely my HG powder.

    This is a must-have product for anyone who's into makeup. I am usually a no-powder person because I don't like them that much and honestly, I don't really know good techniques of applying it. But,...

    UGH. Don't buy this. It's totally worthless. It took me FOREVER to find the right shade since I thought the shade the lady chose for me was too orange. When I got home, the shade I picked out...

    The coverage is good enough but it's a bit too light for my liking. I like the natural look I get when I use this loose powder.

    This product is just OK for me. It leaves a powdery finish that I'm not crazy about and it doesn't absorb oil all that well. It comes in a wide range of colors which is great but I don't think...
