Most Helpful Positive Review Works Fantastic For Me! I actually use this as a powder foundation after applying concealer to my face. I have sensitive, dry-to-very dry skin, that is very sensitive. This powder doesn't irritate my skin or make my acne prone skin any worse. I don't wear moisturizer or primer underneath it, because I feel that in several cases this is what can and often does lead to causing problems with the issues of exactly how a product performs on ones face. Plenty of moisturizers aren't compatible with makeup, and you also have to be very careful with primers, because in many cases they can actually work against doing the very things that their supposedly designed to ward off in the first place. Plenty of people don't take this into consideration enough, but it something that is super important for sure. Oh, and if you have combo skin, you should be applying an oil free moisturizer only to the dry spots on your face as needed. If you have oily or very oily skin, you do not need to apply a moisturizer to your face, because your skin is already over producing enough sebum and applying a moisturizer on oily or very skin will throughout the day, only make your face look even more oiler. For my dry skin gals, I highly recommend using a moisturizer, if needed under your foundation, whether it be a liquid, powder, etc., as needed, but do use one that leaves your face overly oily or greasy to the touch, before you even have chance to put on your makeup, because this will not set well with your makeup.
The reason why I don't choose to use this powder as a setting powder over the NYX Can't Stop Won't Stop Liquid Foundation, is because I actually find that the liquid foundation actually actually sets itself on my face without the need for being set with powder and definitely stays flawless and matte on me all day until I take it off.
This powder is great in that it provides a level of coverage to the face without being heavy. This is not a full coverage powder foundation, so unless you have perfectly clear skin, or almost perfect skin, I don't recommend using it by itself as a lightweight powder foundation. I do have to use concealer first, in order to fully conceal my dark circles and other discolorations on my face, and then I use a brush to apply this powder all over my face thereafter. I have not experiencing any problems with it making my face very shimmery or looking like a greaseball before the end of the day, either. Also, I have not experienced it creasing, caking up, oxidizing, or doing anything weird on my face. So. I definitely will continue to buy it for sure.
I just wanted to further add that yes, this powder does go on matte, but not super matte. It also doesn't go on chalky and make me look, ashy either. After it ends up melting into my skin, it takes upon a very natural look, almost like a second skin. If you have combo, oily, or very oily skin, or even if you happen to live in a tropical climate, I would certainly recommend either wearing a mattifying primer on your face, on the areas where you get oily, whether it is in certain spots or all over the face. And, also, possibly adding a setting spray to your makeup regimen, that you can apply last to lock your makeup in place for a very extended period of time, without worrying about it constantly transferring on everything that touches your face, as well as, in order to keep ones face shine free and fresh looking for a very long period of time as well.
Most Helpful Critical Review Non-functional product I was excited to try this powder but it is not that functional like other powder makeup. Most powder makeup's top cover has space to pour the powder to then use the brush to apply the makeup. This cover has a big circle component in the middle that makes it difficult to swirl/dip the makeup brush in. It's very messy.

The best powder for pale skin 4
starsidime from undisclosed
First off, I should preface this by saying I'm a cosplayer and a party princess!
I don't usually do makeup on a daily basis, But I need a powder that keeps my makeup on all day at an event! I originally used Nyx's Mineral Setting Powder, but the shade Light/Medium is too dark for my very pale skin! This one is perfect! My only reason for not putting it at 5-stars is that it's not as blurring as the mineral one which is mildly disappointing. But overall, I love it! One of the only powders that matches my pale skin and doesn't make me look orange!
horrible packaging 2
belly from usa
the way the lid is made makes it almost impossible to use without making a huge mess.
GOOD STUFF 5
Dani from Massachusetts
Really good product, I loved using it

This powder is excellent. It goes on smoothly and works well with my foundation. I would highly recommend this to anyone looking for a good setting powder.
Absolutely amazing 5
LaraZZZ from undisclosed
Awesome price, used this for the first time and I will continue using it. Way cheaper than my old setting powder but has the same effect. Honestly I see no problem with the lid or packaging
Awful 1
Mali from Usa
So drying, prefer my makeup revolution powder
Great powder, HORRIBLE container! 1
Kat from Moore, OK
Sooooo disappointing! It's a great product in an IMPOSSIBLE container! There's a huge protruding bump in the middle of the cap. Normally, you pour loose powder into the cap of the container and swirl our brush around in the product, yes? Absolutely cannot do that with this container. It's so messy and awful. Seriously, whose idea was this? Love the product, won't buy again, though. The cap makes it totally not worth it!
Money gone, No product 1

Love it 5
Angie K. from Kentucky
Love this setting setting powder. It's not over drying or too powdery. Works for me!
Airbrush finish 5
Lexi2123 from undisclosed
So lightweight & flawless. I apply with a brush, i let it sit for 3-5 minutes then I blend it in with a lighter brush. Gives your face such a airbrush finish & looks professionally done. Great setting powder to "bake face".
Good powder 5
Neis from undisclosed
This powder is easy to use and works really well for my skin tone.
Really recommend since it's long lasting 5
Chloe_011 from undisclosed
Every other finishing powder I've used so far hasn't lasted the whole day or it makes me look really cake. This powder is really nice and lasts without looking clumpy or cakey on my face throughout the day.
Container is weird 2
Katy123 from Portland, OR
I cannot get enough powder out. The holes in the container don't produce enough powder. Tried taking it off, it was a mess. The powder itself is great, but application is complicated.

This powder is ok & I hate the top Smfh
AMAZING POWDER, BUT THE LID??? 5
ttshash from undisclosed
This even looks amazing on 50+ year old skin. Very reasonable in price and wears a long time without breaking out sensitive skin. BUT the lid has a dome to fill in the base so there is no where to dump some powder out. Have to look for another lid to do so. 4.5 stars.
great! 4
Dash from California
it's a good product for an affordable price, it doesn't create creases and is definitely worth it! i will for sure be buying it again once i run out!
Okay 3
Sam from California
I would say it's just okay. Don't feel like it looks bad but it doesn't set as much as I'd like. Doesn't glide well with a beauty blender. I'm still using it just to finish it but I probably wouldn't buy it again. It doesn't awe me.
Good product and def will buy again 4
Gina Reagan from Buffalo, NY
I like this setting powder a lot! My only negative comment is that the packaging itself takes up so much room I don't think this will last very long.
Best setting powder 5
Tracy24 from New York
