MA advised to get this color Soft Sand #5 and I wear Sand 2 in the Skin foundation. It turns orange after a couple hours which leads me to believe I would have been better off with Pale Yellow, but...

This is a fabulous powder in a fabulous compact. Yes, it is. I can wear a pink or yellow based powder, and for yellow, you can't beat this stuff. I moisturize, add SS, spot treat with foundation,...

I really like this powder. I was a die hard MAC fan but I think that Bobbi has won me over. I wear this over the oil free even finish compact and it takes away the oil without taking away the...

What a disappointment!! In France this retails for 35 euros and it is sooooo not worth it! I had asked the BB rep for a pressed powder for oily skin, but in a transluscent color as I have a...

I am apparently the last person on the planet to find out that powder can turn orange on your face. All this time, I thought it was my foundation. I've lost track of the foundations I dismissed...

HG for me!! Light enough to blot and not change foundation shade and never looks heavy. This review was originally written for Bobbi Brown Sheer Finish Pressed Powder In Pale Yellow

Packaging is ok, sponge looks soft but poor quality, but the powder just killed my skin. Normally i have no spots or breakouts, but now i looked terrible and at the same time my skin felt so...

This is a very finely milled pressed powder and truly gives you the no make up look. The colour is light but is really translucent and would suit all light - medium skins, especially Asian colours....

Another UPDATE: I started using this again because I wanted more coverage than my usual loose powder and because it's much more convenient to carry this compact around. I now think that the reason...

Be wary of this product if you have oily skin. I had a make-over by Bobbi Brown and the SA used the oil-free loose power on me. I walked around the store and to make sure I didn't break out in the...

So far, this has been the only powder that hasn't turned darker on me. That is probably it's strongest point. I have it in Sunny Beige and it sets my concealer fairly well. For the most part,...
