Comments about Essence Mineral Compact Powder:
I would love to be able to review the actual product, but seeing as how they didn't provide a powder puff with which to apply the make-up, I couldn't use it until I found my own. Then I had to find a mirror, because there isn't one in the compact. I guess that keeps the cost down, but the inconvenience factor goes way up and I'd rather just spend the extra money on a CoverGirl compact that comes with puff and mirror. Thanks anyway.

Comments about Essence Mineral Compact Powder:
The first thing that hit me was the lack of applicator... had to find one of my own. The second thing was it looked like there wasn't much in the container. Application was smooth and easy and it blended well and looked natural. Enjoy using this product, but it would be nice if there was more of it and something to apply it with.

Comments about Essence Mineral Compact Powder:
I liked the product & thought it worked well controlling shine, but the only color they had when I bought it was translucent. It gave the face an unnatural white color. I'd like to try an actual color.

I ordered this in perfect beige because the image showed a very light color on the compact, but the color I received looks completely like the "natural beige" instead. It's very orangey looking. Do not be fooled by the light image.
