By far the best face powder I've used
I've spent hundreds of dollars on foundations and powders for my ever changing face. The older I get my face seems to change texture. I can't wear foundation of any kind with out it wearing off my face in an oil slick causing break outs. Or the colors are never a match. Powders, expensive and generi...

WHY DID YOU CHANGE SOMETHING THAT WAS WORKING??
I do not understand Clinique at all!! It is so frustrating for a company to change a foundation, a powder, that it knows from reviews that IS ABSOLUTELY WORKING for those who use it! The coverage, look and feel is now different than what it used to be because you took out the SPF15 that was in the p...

Horrible
Verified Reviewer
Reviewed at
I have been wearing Clinique for over 20 years. Has turned to this about a year ago in place of what I was using from Clinique. The formula has changed since I last bought and it is horrible. Horrible coverage doesn't go on smooth. What a disappointment when you have used something for years. That's why j switched from the other I was using. So this is 2 that I have ordered and have been horrible. Bought one from Clinique a couple of months ago and same.
I buy this product again and again !
This Makeup is the closest one can get to foundation when you want that additional coverage and/or touchup at home or on the run ...just dampen the sponge, blot and apply! I am unable to get this product in Canada and am so grateful to have found it at Ulta in the USA.
Easy medium coverage

I appreciate how easy it is to apply and how well it blends in. I'm very no-nonsense when it comes to my routine and this fits in so easily. I just apply sunscreen, moisturizer, then my almost-powder, which gives me a nice even tone and a little extra up protection.
Repeat Purchase
I recently bought my second Almost Powder Makeup at my local Ulta. I am 70 yrs old and finding makeup that doesn't collect in my creases is difficult. This makeup does a pretty good job. I believe it is all about the application. So, I say go for it…give it a try!
Close, but no cigar (creases quite badly)
I've been trying and failing to find a good powder foundation for a week or two, and for a minute, I thought this might be the winner. The color match is perfect--I'm quite pale with a neutral undertone, which is sometimes a problem, since a lot of brands only have super light shades with pink or yellow undertones. The finish is nice and natural, at least at first--neither super shiny nor super matte. The coverage is respectable, and seems to layer easily. The one thing that really won me over was the fact that I was able to blow my nose without completely ruining it, which is a big deal since I have pretty bad allergies. However, after actually wearing it out for more than 20 minutes, I realized it wasn't holding up so great. Maybe I'm just too greasy or something, but it started creasing quite badly and the texture became progressively worse. After an hour or two I now had a rather nasty skin texture and four times as many wrinkles as I actually have. I tried using it with a primer once I got home, but it didn't help much. Maybe I should have seen this coming, since talc and dimethicone are two of the main ingredients, which tend to cause creasing, but I was kind of hoping it would be different at this price point.
