This is an old staple that I've been using since high school. I have a perfect color match in Golden (extremely yellow - rare for a drugstore product), it's sheer enough to not be obvious and it...

LOVE this! I can always rely on Maybelline for inexpensive powders with yellow undertones. I have combination skin and this is the first compact that does the job of keeping my skin mostly oil-free...

The "Golden" color is wonderful for camoflaging the red areas of my nose and blemishes on my chin. When I powder it over my Almay Skin Stays Clean foundation, it completely hides the flaws. It's...

O my Gawd! This broke me out terrible and looked very fake on skin! Just...blah! I must admit that it controlls oil well, but that is because it blocks the pores and lets them be cloged!

It controls my shine very well..although it gives me a little too much of a "powdery" look. I probably wouldn't buy again. The powder kind of spills everywhere also..

My favorite drugstore powder, barnone. I always get Golden, which is one of the few powders I've found that is not orange in the slightest. It's nice & dry, and mattifies my face nicely. And all...

I like this powder- I bought in golden, bc of the yellow undertone. Does a fine job of keeping my face matte.

This was an impulse buy because the Ivory looked very light in the store. It is, too - it's almost a light yellow as opposed to a skintone, which is an interesting option. It prevents that...

I have it in Ivory. A bit too light for me right now, but it was the perfect shade when I got it. <br><br> I can't say it's good or bad -- it gets the job done, but I'm not wowed. I'll probably...

Dropped it both times I bought it. Shattered each time. I think it's a sign, because it sucks. STOP BUYING IT, say the beauty gods. In three or four hours, my T-zone isn't just glowing, it's...
