Most Helpful Positive Review I would buy this again I use this as a setting powder for my concealer and eyeshadow primer. It works great and doesn't leave me cakey. I usually apply it with a sponge and after baking, blend it out/remove exsess with a makeup brush. Finding the right shade for your skin tone is important and because of this most of the negatives come from people who've used the translucent powder. The only negatives I have is that it can get messy. It has a little cap with dots to keep the powder from spoiling out when not in use but once the powder comes out of the little holes it's not going back in.
Most Helpful Critical Review Terrible Let me start off by saying how much I usually LOVE makeup revolution products. I religiously use their foundation, eye shadows etc. With that being said, this setting powder is terrible. I bought the translucent shade (thinking it would be fine because I used the translucent pressed powder & am obsessed with it) and it made me white as a GHOST. I even tried to make it work with bronzer etc but it was a lost cause. It also made my face makeup cakey and patchy. I had to take it off & redo. Also it's definitely worth nothing that it had crazy flashback, I took a couple photos on my phone to check.

I bought the lavender and the translucent shades. They look the same. Also very poor packaging. Opened it the first time and it spilled everywhere.
Alright product 3
Patrycja from Michigan
It is a alright product. The powder itself feels really nice on the skin. The compact itself was a bit messy and difficult. I love the mirror idea, though I wouldn't say it's for good use since the powder gets messy. Overall, it's nice, feels good, and remember that with this translucent powder, a little goes a long way!
Yes!! 5

Settles in creases!!!!!! 2
Lydwelch from Gainesville, GA
This settles in my creases!! i've tried putting it on in different ways but it still creases. It's hard to get out. Normally I would put a little in the lid, but on this, the lid doesn't come off. I shake it a little to get what I need but powder falls out when I do this. It also has a weird smell to it. Almost like a burnt smell.
Perfect! No flashback! 5
Gnia from Houston Texas
I use this product to set/bake and it works amazing! I have oily skin and it gives me a natural look and keeps oil under control. I am tan yellow I would recommend medium yellow because light yellow almost looks white.
Great coverage 4

mal from dallas
bro it literally gave me so much flashback!!😭 and made my makeup look sooo cakey it didnt set it at allll
I would buy again, in different shade 4
De from Florida
After I put all my makeup on, before setting spray, I just lightly put this on. It's a lightweight formula that works nice. Only thing is I should have gotten a shade or 2 darker, as it kind of makes me look too light. This wouldn't have happened if I got the right shade. Wish we could go back to normal. With store closed, I'm disappointed because I cant go into ulta and see which matches my skin best or swatch anything.

Worst Powder Ever 1
Xineohpina from NYC
This powder has tons of flashback, it's impossible to brush off after baking, and it leaves the absolute ashiest look on your face. It's disgusting. I wish I never bought this powder.
It's a great buy!! 5
Amber from Van Buren, Arkansas
Moisturize, use this powder next and then setting spray, then apply your routine eye makeup and foundation. You'll absolutely love your results!!
It's not what it seems 1
Kait from Middletown NY
When I got this it says in it no flash backs and that is absolutely NOT the case. I use a translucent setting powder with every makeup application and I've NEVER had one that left me looking the way this did. It made me so white i looked dead. It looked like I was dressing up for Halloween or attending casper the friendly ghosts party. I returned it Immediately after using it. I usually really like this product but this one I hated
Love It! 5
Jazz from Ohio
With good base products this will last you all day! Applies best with a sponge, in my opinion. Will def re-buy!
Do not buy 3
Ana from Dallas
This product is ok. The packaging is nice, but I feel like this product did nothing for my face. It still make me look very oily really did not do anything for my face. I like a very matte look and this was not it.
New fav ! 4
Kate from North Carolina
This powder is amazing ! I have super oily skin so I need something that's going to be very heavy duty and light weight and this is just that . It's is an amazing texture for baking and sculpts like no other ! The only thing I don't like about it is the packaging , it's very messy !
This is great! 5
S S from Omaha, NE
I use this product for setting my under eye concealer. Although I am dry this doesn't emphasize any dryness or leave a cast on my darker skin. I would definitely recommend and will repurchase.
good product, bad packaging 4
brit from nc
I actually love this despite the bad reviews. I am very fair so I use the light pink shade and it works great. white translucent powders have never worked well for me and that sounds like what a lot of people here are using. the packaging is messy though and you loose products through the cracks if you dont keep the inside stopper in.
Eh not for me 2
edi from California
I got translucent but it looks more white than anything. Looks like flour was thrown on my face and it's hard to get off so yeah no
nope 2
Neanie from Indiana
This was a+ for an hour. It looked nice after application, kept my makeup on all day, withstood obe round of blotting, and is indeed water resistant. The package is cute. But um... my forehead lines looked like lines in the club bathroom after about 6 hours. Lines of white powder across my forehead isn't exactly pretty. So translucent is definitely not translucent. Also, it showed texture on my skin like no other. I do like it to lighten eyeshadow and make a gradient between brow bone and crease. It did really well for that, but not for anything else.
Wanted to love this but 1
Sisters from Ulta
The packaging is awful. It spilled through the tiny cracks . It was so messy when I opened it. The product looked I threw flour on my face. I have had problems with this brand in the past but i thought I'd give another try and it sucked. Also showed my pores and just made me look gross. Not impressed
Awful 1
Jennie from Y
I'll keep it short and sweet. It looked like I threw flour on my face. I blended but that white cast would not go away. The pressed banana powder is much much better
Not a fan 2
Nickname from Washington
I am a huge fan of this brand, but was a bit disappointed in this product. I apply it with a beauty sponge and it gets super patchy :( don't recommend
Wanted to love this, really bad 1
Ana from Milwaukee
I was super excited to get this. Simply for the fact that it said it would give no flashback and was water resistant.. I tried it out with my fave concealer the same way I do every day and it accentuated texture I didn't even know I had... it started getting patchy and even creasing horribly.. idk, it's definitely flashback free but oh well. Will be returning
